The Packers media panopticon turned its attention to Brian Gutekunst on Tuesday as the Packers’ general manager weighed in on his team’s fate and fortunes from the NFL Combine.

Until the playoff game in which the Bears defeated the Green Bay Packers on January 10th, it was looking like Chicago finally had their offensive line set for the first time in ages.

The Packers can spend in free agency this spring. Not a lot, but they can, though it’ll take some work to get there. But what they should spend on is a tricky question. They can’t spend as freely as they might like; don’t expect an extravaganza as we saw in 2019, for instance. The Packers […]
The NFL continues to gradually trickle out assignments for the league’s 2026 international games, and another one dropped on Tuesday morning.
