Green Bay Packers News: Time for Packers stars to shine

We’re a day away from football. Tomorrow night, in Australia for some reason, the 2026 NFL season officially begins. Packers fans have to wait until Sunday for our first taste of the action, but it’s coming, and soon. And after weeks of training camp, it’s time to recalibrate expectations for what really matters on the […]

Green Bay Packers name team captains for 2026

The Green Bay Packers have named captains in several different ways under head coach Matt LaFleur, but it appears that they’ll be rolling with a season-long set of five captains in 2026, based on the team’s announcement on Monday. In the past, the team has also rotated captains on a game-by-game basis, as we all […]

Tucker Kraft named NFL’s #3 player on an expiring contract

If you can believe it, there are already people looking toward the 2027 NFL free-agent cycle. Greg Rosenthal of NFL.com posted an article this week laying out the top 25 possible free agents for next year’s free-agent class heading into the 2026 regular season. Coming third on the list is the Green Bay Packers’ Tucker […]

Packers Preview: Get ready for Edgerrin Cooper playing on the edge

One of the biggest changes you’re going to notice about new defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon’s scheme is his Penny package, which is essentially a 3-4 defense on the line of scrimmage with one true off-ball linebacker, split safeties and another deeper safety in the middle of the field. Green Bay Packers fans are familiar with […]

Vikings sign S Harrison Smith ahead of Week 1 matchup with Packers

According to NFL Network/ESPN’s Mike Garafolo, the Minnesota Vikings have signed safety Harrison Smith to a one-year, $12.25 million contract going into this week’s matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Smith had previously played for the Vikings, earning All-Pro honors in 2017 and 2018, before being released by Minnesota at the start of the new […]

Packers to work out UFL MVP Jack Plummer next week

According to NFL insider Aaron Wilson, the Green Bay Packers will work out Jack Plummer, the UFL’s 2026 MVP and passing leader, next week. This is an interesting move, as the Packers just signed quarterback Kedon Slovis to their practice squad earlier this week and the team still has one remaining practice squad spot open. […]

Referee announced for Packers’ Week 1 matchup vs. Vikings

The NFL has announced its Week 1 referee assignments, and the Green Bay Packers, who will open the season against the Minnesota Vikings in Minneapolis, will start the year with Shawn Hochuli. Hochuli’s crews have been known to be flag-happy, as they are the only ones to have ranked among the top four in the […]

Josh Jacobs’ initial hearing has been moved up by several months

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was placed on the NFL’s commissioner exempt list before the league’s final cutdowns to teams’ initial 53-man rosters for the 2026 season. The Packers’ brass has stated that they will stand by Jacobs, who is currently set to face charges of battery and criminal damage in Brown County, […]

Packers Preview: What to expect from a MarShawn Lloyd running game?

The Green Bay Packers’ running game is going to be a bit of a mystery box going into the 2026 regular season. Not only is starting running back Josh Jacobs on the commissioner exempt list, but the players who will backfill Jacobs’ carries have never been significant ball-carriers at the NFL level, and the Packers’ […]

Packers can be optimistic about forcing turnovers in 2026

A little over a year ago, I wrote about the Packers’ defense and its plans for 2025. Heading into the second year of the Jeff Hafley era, the Packers wanted to force even more turnovers than they had in 2024, which I argued was an admirable but misguided plan. “Get more turnovers” isn’t really a […]

Green Bay Packers News: 1923 throwback uniforms return in December

You didn’t think the Green Bay Packers would have just a single game in alternate uniforms this season, did you? Hopefully not, because Thursday afternoon brought the news that the team will once again be bringing out their “1923 Classic” threads later this season. This alternate uniform, which debuted last season in a home game […]

The Madden Curse is real and it’s coming for the Bears

I live in suburban Chicago Illinois, which has several benefits. One of the big benefits is that I get to hear overconfident Bears fans on the radio, which I enjoy more than hearing overconfident Green Bay Packers fans on the radio. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not at all against proclaiming the superiority of your […]

Green Bay Packers News: MarShawn Lloyd is ready for a big role

I’m excited for MarShawn Lloyd. I’m worried for MarShawn Lloyd. In some ways his offseason reminded me of a low-level viral tweet from a while back: he accidentally became important at work, and it might be ruining his life. I don’t think anybody anticipated the Packers would go into Week 1 with Lloyd as the […]

Packers Roster: Which units improved their standing in training camp?

Here’s a fun one: Which of the Green Bay Packers’ units improved (or declined) their standing on the team during training camp? Before training camp, we had you all vote on how you would grade the Packers’ positional groups with an A to F scale, then we calculated the results with a GPA ranking. Here’s […]

Packers sign Scott Daly to practice squad as long snapper insurance

Wednesday has brought news of another turn in the Green Bay Packers’ long snapping situation. The Packers, who are heading into the regular season with Matt Orzech as the one long snapper on the 53-man roster, have added another player at the position to ensure that they have some cover if Orzech is not ready […]

Packers Practice Squad Tracker 2026: Follow all the reports & signings

A 53-man roster isn’t the only thing that NFL teams need to decide on this week. The league’s cutdown deadline from 90 to 53 will come and go on Sunday afternoon, and on Monday it will be time for teams to begin assembling the other major piece of their rosters: the practice squad. Over the […]

Lambeau Field to host Wisconsin hockey doubleheader in February

The Green Bay Packers have been clear that they intend to find uses for Lambeau Field besides the team’s regularly scheduled home games, and for the first time since the team’s 2026 Shareholders’ Meeting in July, the legendary stadium has added a new event to its calendar. On Wednesday, the Packers announced that Lambeau will […]

Green Bay Packers News: Newcomers making an impression

Cutdown weekend is always a time of change and transition. For a few new members of the Green Bay Packers, that was especially true. Not only did the Packers trim their roster from 90 to the required 53, but they traded for two new players in the process and added a third via free agency. […]

That Sums It Up: One sentence about each projected Packers starter

We are a week and some change away from the Green Bay Packers’ first game of the 2026 season, and now that roster cutdowns are complete, we finally know what we’re working with as we approach opening day. We’re going to be short and sweet this week, and give you one sentence about each of […]

Packers Discussion: What does a gameday roster look like for Green Bay?

A lot of focus has been put on the Green Bay Packers’ 53-man roster recently, and I don’t blame people for looking at it — since we just had roster cutdowns. To me, though, there are really three different versions of the roster: Today, I want to talk about the 48-man game-day roster. A lot […]

Packers Injuries: Updates on IR’d players and Micah Parsons

The Green Bay Packers’ brass spoke to the media on Tuesday for the first time since roster cuts. The deadline also came with some injury news, as both receiver Savion Williams and edge rusher Collin Oliver were placed on the injured reserve, with a return designation, to make room for other players to be retained […]

Packers Film Review: TE Mark Redman

On August 30th, the Green Bay Packers traded a 2028 7th-round pick to the Los Angeles Rams for tight end Mark Redman. Given that the Rams had eight tight ends at the start of the month, it’s no surprise they’d be open to getting rid of one of them. (As currently stands, the Rams have […]
