Latest news and updates about the Packers
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the trade market for Indianapolis Colts quarterback Antony Richardson has so far been soft—meaning longtime general manager Chris Ballard hasn’t been compelled to move him quite yet: Despite reported initial interest from trade suitors such as the Cleveland Browns, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Rams, and Washington Commanders, Ballard himself […]
The Miami Dolphins are following the Packers blueprint for success, and fans don't need to look any further than the QB they tasked to turn the team around.
The Packers will spend one of their Top 30 visits on Texas Tech edge rusher Romello Height, according to a report from NFL writer Ryan Fowler. Height is a 6-foot-3, 239-pound pass rushing prospect who currently projects as a Day 2 pick in this year’s NFL draft. As of this writing, he’s number 83 on […]
The Packers panopticon has turned to Phoenix, where Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur spoke to the media in between work at the annual NFL owners meetings this week. Mostly, you can ignore these updates. It’s usually a lot of happy talk and company-line talking points. We’re happy with our offseason so far, we’re going to […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have frequented the stop-gap quarterback shop in each of the last two seasons, but it appears as if they could have the same starting quarterback in consecutive years for the first time since 2020-21. When speaking at the NFL Owners Meetings, head coach Mike McCarthy noted that he and Aaron Rodgers are […]
The Green Bay Packers have had their eyes on linebacker Zaire Franklin for some time now, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst. Gutekunst spoke to the press at the NFL league meetings this week, which included this quote about Franklin (h/t The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman): We’ve liked Zaire for a while. Quite frankly, back when […]
The NFL owners meetings are underway in Phoenix, Arizona and various executives and coaches across the National Football League are in attendance. Green Bay Packers coach Matt LeFleur is one of the coaches in Arizona right now — and on Monday, he met with a contingent of journalists for an informal question and answer session. […]
Beyond just extensions for tight end Tucker Kraft and receiver Christian Watson, which seem like no-brainers at this point, the Green Bay Packers are apparently eyeing another big extension in the near future. In his article covering the Packers’ current cap situation, here’s what the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Tom Silverstein had to say about defensive […]
The Green Bay Packers are heading towards the 2026 NFL Draft with a packed wide receiver room, but Georgia State wideout Ted Hurst has drawn some attention from general manager Brian Gutekunst and the team’s scouting department. Hurst was the first reported pre-draft official visit by the Packers, which comes as a bit of a […]
For all of the hand-wringing about the Green Bay Packers’ 2026 offseason, one thing is clear: the team was content to move on from several players who were key members of the roster in 2025. The departures of Romeo Doubs, Quay Walker, and Rasheed Walker in free agency, Elgton Jenkins and Nate Hobbs via cut, […]
The Rich Bisaccia saga has been one of the more bizarre events of the 2026 NFL offseason, and it was certainly the weirdest thing to happen around the Green Bay Packers so far this year. The team’s former special teams coordinator abruptly resigned from his post in late January, well after most of the coaching […]
As we move towards the NFL Draft, let’s catch up on off-season news for former Orange in the NFL. The biggest move so far was the Colts trading Zaire Franklin to Green Bay where he will join Kyle McCord. Travis Etienne moves to New Orleans= good for LeQuint Kenneth Gainwell to Tampa= Sean Tucker moves […]
Before the NFL league meetings next week, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur spoke to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network about the status of LaFleur’s team going into the 2026 season. Beyond some kind words about quarterback Jordan Love, the most notable thing LaFleur said was about the injury status of tight end […]
Our Miami Dolphins went out at the beginning of free agency and surprised everyone by pulling off the signing of former Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Malik Willis. I then asked the following question earlier this week: Do you believe that Malik Willis will ultimately be a long-term answer for the Miami Dolphins at starting […]
According to Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network, the Green Bay Packers are bringing in Louisville off-ball linebacker T.J. Quinn for a pre-draft visit. Generally, the Packers’ pre-draft visitors have a high chance of being added to Green Bay’s roster, either in the draft, undrafted free agency or further down the line. Louisville just had […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers made arguably the most notable coaching change of the offseason. After the longest tenured coach in American sports stepped down, the Steelers replaced Mike Tomlin with former Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, which was met with as much excitement as a waiter spilling hot coffee all over […]
National writers seem pretty down on the Packers lately. I don’t share most of their concerns, but perhaps they’re legitimate. Reasonable people can disagree, and maybe they have some insights those of us who cover the team closely don’t. But one thing I don’t get is the fixation on the snaps the Packers have lost. […]
The Packers have started their pre-draft visits, reportedly setting up a date with wide receiver Ted Hurst. Hurst, a 6-foot-4, 206-pound wide receiver out of Georgia State, is already in demand during visit season. In addition to meeting with the Packers, he has reportedly set up visits with the Colts and Falcons. Hurst launched his […]
When you’re the starting quarterback of an NFL team, your time is precious. Everyone wants a piece of that limited resource, particularly in the offseason when there’s more to go around. That’s the case for Jordan Love of the Green Bay Packers, who has plenty of commitments this spring. On Thursday, Love was in Milwaukee […]
On top of Florida defensive tackle Caleb Banks being diagnosed with a broken foot, NFL.com’s Eric Edholm is now reporting that two other defensive tackles in the upcoming draft class are dealing with medical issues. To say the least, the top of the defensive tackle class is a little banged up. Per Edholm, Mississippi nose […]
Assuming that the Green Bay Packers will be playing a 3-4 base this year, which all signs are pointing to as of March 26th, the Packers still need one more starting defensive lineman to pair with Devonte Wyatt, who should be back on the field around minicamp, and the recently signed Javon Hargrave. Because of […]
One of the biggest surprises in free agency was our Miami Dolphins going out and signing former Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Malik Willis to a three-year, $ 67.5 million deal. The surprise was not that a team with no qualified starter on the roster, once its prior starter, Tua Tagovailoa, was cut, would be […]
While gambling institutions are pretty high on the 2026 Green Bay Packers, holding their current win total at 10.5, there is a sense among some pundits that Green Bay may come crashing down to earth while the division champion Chicago Bears remain ascendant. We here at Acme Packing Company are fans of the team, yes, […]
It’s a relatively slow news period for the Green Bay Packers right now, as it appears that the whole league has opted out of free agency until the draft. So, we might as well talk about the draft. Here’s a quick mock I did with the NFL Mock Draft Database simulator: #52: Dani Dennis-Sutton, EDGE, […]
Four match-ups are in the books, and we now know two of our Elite 8 matchups. The Jahdae Walker game-tying catch against the Packers will square off against the Cole Kmet game-tying heave against the Rams. In the other elite 8 matchup, the Luther Burden Flea Flicker will square off against the DJ Moore touchdown […]
