Latest news and updates about the Packers
I teased this yesterday, when I wrote about the Green Bay Packers’ injuries and their players’ recovery timelines, so it’s time to deliver: Here’s your 2026 53-man roster projection after the first couple of days of free agency. We’re months away from the Packers having to play a football game, but here’s where their team […]
Despite having limited cap space, the Miami Dolphins have been busy adding players and keeping some of their own. However, their biggest signing was announced early on Monday when it was reported that QB Malik Wills and the team reached an agreement. Willis flashed plenty of potential with the Green Bay Packers and the hope […]
The San Francisco 49ers have signed former Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs to a one-year contract, according to reporter Jordan Schultz. Hobbs was just officially released by the Packers on Wednesday, so this deal was struck fairly quickly. When Hobbs, who primarily played slot defender for the Las Vegas Raiders, signed, there was hope […]
The San Francisco 49ers are signing former Packers and Raiders cornerback Natt Hobbs to a one-year deal. Hobbs was released by the Packers a year after they signed him to a 4-year, $48 million deal, including $16 million guaranteed. Hobbs played 221 snaps for the Packers in 2025. Hobbs played 221 snaps for the Packers […]
I doubt the Green Bay Packers will spend much on compensatory free agents this year, because of the picks they’re due to receive if their top players walk. On paper, the Packers are incentivized by the league’s structure to limit their compensatory free agent action to up to two $5 million-ish or cheaper players (priced […]
The Seattle Seahawks have brought in their first running back since Kenneth Walker left for the Kansas City Chiefs. Former Green Bay Packers backup back Emanuel Wilson has agreed to a one-year contract with the Seahawks. According to Ian Rapoport, the deal is worth up to $2.1 million. Wilson was an undrafted free agent out […]
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Seattle Seahawks will be signing running back Emanuel Wilson to a one-year deal “worth up to $2.1 million” for the 2026 season. The Super Bowl champions are in the market for a number two back after Kenneth Walker, who won the Super Bowl MVP, signed with the […]
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Tom Silverstein has reported that former Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson will not be coming back to the team in 2026. The Packers elected to turn down his $3.5 million restricted free agent tender, and while Silverstein claims that Wilson hasn’t agreed to a deal with another club, “he […]
On the radio with ESPN Milwaukee, ESPN’s Adam Schefter gave us all an update on Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker and his status in free agency. Right now, Walker is by far the best player left in free agency, according to consensus rankings, who has yet to sign with a team by the […]
On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers landed a player who was one of Jonathan Gannon’s best success stories with the Philadelphia Eagles. Green Bay signed free agent defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, who had just been released by the Minnesota Vikings, to a two-year deal, reuniting him with his former defensive coordinator. Gannon coached Hargrave in […]
As our own Justis Mosqueda wrote yesterday, the Green Bay Packers have until Friday (that’s tomorrow as I sit down with my morning coffee to write this) to make a decision on kicker Brandon McManus. Without parroting the entire article here, I’ll just clarify that that is because McManus is due a $1 million bonus […]
The Miami Dolphins continue to raid the Green Bay Packers' donation box in free agency. They added another backup tight end to compete for a roster spot.
The Miami Dolphins double-dipped at safety on Wednesday, but it doesn't move the needle in terms of fixing the overall unit.
I was originally going to get up a 53-man roster projection for Thursday morning (stay tuned for that tomorrow), but while doing the exercise, I realized that I was doing a lot of work trying to figure out when guys were expected to return from injury after the chaos that happened at the end of […]
The Green Bay Packers brought back an old friend, Jonathan Ford, to the team in 2025, after a slew of injuries to their defensive line. Ford, a 2022 seventh-round pick, was plucked from the Chicago Bears’ practice squad after spending the 2022 to 2024 seasons with the Packers. He never played a regular-season snap with […]
As everyone here now knows, our Miami Dolphins went out on the first day of the “legal tampering” period of free agency in the NFL and agreed to a 3-year deal with former Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Malik Willis. Given that Willis was given a rather large contract for a fairly unproven commodity at […]
Not only are the general manager, head coach and quarterback for the Miami Dolphins coming from Green Bay, but the team has also now signed two former Packers on Wednesday. The first was safety/special teams ace Zayne Anderson. Now, it’s being reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero that tight end Ben Sims is going to […]
The Miami Dolphins continue a targeted focus on their defensive secondary and special teams as the NFL’s 2026 free agency period kicks off. According to reports, the Dolphins have added former Las Vegas Raiders defensive back Lonnie Johnson, Jr., former Green Bay Packers safety Zayne Anderson, and former New England Patriots cornerback Alex Austin. The […]
The Green Bay Packers have made some special teams-centric moves this offseason, beyond just retaining their own players. This included the signing of receiver/returner Skyy Moore and cornerback/all-round contributor Benjamin St-Juste. The St-Juste move seemed odd, though, if the team was going to retain safety Zayne Anderson, who was a restricted free agent with a […]
The Las Vegas Raiders’ roster had a massive need at linebacker heading into 2026 NFL free agency, leading general manager John Spytek to sign Quay Walker from the Green Bay Packers to a three-year, $40.5 million contract. The 6-foot-4, 241-pound backer has always had impressive physical traits, running a 4.52-second 40-yard dash, 6.89 three-cone and […]
The most obvious free agent signing of the spring has come to pass within an hour of it becoming a possibility. The Green Bay Packers desperately need a nose tackle and they have found one in Javon Hargrave. The Packers reportedly have inked Hargrave to a big new two-year contract, giving him $23 million over […]
You don’t have to worry about the Dallas Cowboys reneging on the trade for former Green Bay Packers pass-rusher Rashan Gary, even though NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported last night, after the Maxx Crosby trade fell through, that the Cowboys were still interested in Crosby. The Cowboys have made their official announcement that Gary will […]
Monday afternoon brings the start of the NFL’s free agent negotiation period, often referred to as the “legal tampering” period. Starting at 12 Noon Eastern, teams may begin talking to agents of unrestricted free agents to work out the framework of contracts that can be officially signed after 4 PM Eastern on Wednesday, when the […]
Nose tackle is one of the biggest areas of concern on the Green Bay Packers’ roster heading into the 2026 season, but on Wednesday — shortly before the start of the NFL’s league year — the team brought a player back at that spot to give them competition and options in training camp. According to […]
This is the one you’ve all been waiting for. The Minnesota Vikings are set to release Javon Hargrave on the first day of the new league year, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Green Bay Packers, desperate for defensive line help, can sign Hargrave, a former Jonathan Gannon defensive lineman, without offsetting a compensatory draft […]
