Packers set up roster competition with pair of UDFA guards
Training camp roster battles are basically a myth. A team’s roster is basically set by the time the dust settles after the first week of free agency, and whatever details need to be sorted out are pretty much taken care of by the end of the NFL Draft. The idea that someone comes out of […]
Green Bay Packers News: Will Lambeau loom large late in the season?
The Green Bay Packers’ schedule in 2026 has something that is exceedingly rare in the NFL, but particularly so in franchise history. The team will play four of its final five regular season games at home, all coming on or after December 13th. But as we found out this week, the Packers actually used to […]
Bears sign former Packers draft pick Anthony Johnson Jr.
The Chicago Bears have picked up former Green Bay Packers safety Anthony Johnson Jr. as they get ready for organized team activities next week. Johnson was originally drafted in the seventh round by the Packers in 2023, playing 12 regular-season games as a rookie before being waived by Green Bay at the roster cutdown deadline […]
Packers Discussion: What are you looking for in OTAs?
The Green Bay Packers will start organized team activities (OTAs) next Tuesday, May 26th. While the Packers have already begun their offseason workouts, this gives us the first opportunity to hear from coaches and players about practices for the first time in 2026. It’s still a long way until minicamp on June 9th and training […]
Thursday Cheese Curds: Packers could use pass rush help with Parsons recovering
We’ve seen life without Micah Parsons, and it’s not great. When Parsons was in the lineup for the Packers, their defense was respectable. Good, even. Parsons’ quarterback stalking abilities put the Packers in at least the top third of defenses league-wide, and his ability to destroy any play at any time made them a threat […]
Aaron Rodgers to retire after 2026 season
After years of will-he, won’t-he drama in the offseason, former Green Bay Packers quarterback and future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers has officially stated that 2026 will be his last year in the NFL. In his press conference in Pittsburgh on Wednesday, he replied, “This is it,” when asked if he would retire after the […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Packers 2026 UDFAs preparing to take their shot
It doesn’t make any difference to me whether or not an undrafted free agent makes the Packers roster, and it probably shouldn’t to you. The Packers 21-year streak is as much a coincidence as it is an organizational philosophy or an indication that they’re doing anything that any other team isn’t trying to do. But […]
NFL to increase international games, end home game protections
By the end of the 2026 season, after the Dallas Cowboys play in Mexico City, the Green Bay Packers will have played the fewest games internationally of any NFL club. That could be changing in the near future. On Tuesday, the NFL’s owners approved the league to schedule 10 international games moving forward, up from […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Downstream effects of schedule release playing out
Cards on the table: as annoying as the pre-release stuff is for the NFL schedule, I do like digging into some of the nitty gritty of the ins and outs of the schedule. Does it matter? Not to me, of course. I don’t have to play the games. But it is important, as our Paul […]
EDGE Nyjalik Kelly is one of the Packers’ most interesting UDFAs of 2026
The NFL Draft was nearly a month ago, and the Packers signed their undrafted free agents only a little less than that. In light of those facts, let me offer you some timely analysis: I think Nyjalik Kelly has a real good shot of making a run at a roster spot this summer. It’s going […]
Packers sign Vanderbilt cornerback Marlon Jones to fill out roster
The Green Bay Packers used their final available roster spot to sign former Vanderbilt cornerback Marlon Jones, a move that was first reported by CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz on Monday. The Packers had an open roster spot following the failed physical of tight end Luke Lachey and are up to a full 91-man offseason roster. […]
Packers Roster: The biggest question for every unit going into camp
The Green Bay Packers’ summer roster is mostly set, as the team has just one open roster spot available at the time of this article. I took the time to go position-by-position through the Packers’ roster and pin down what the biggest question I have for each position group going into camp, the things I’ll […]
Packers Discussion: Predict Green Bay’s record in 2026
If you missed it, the Green Bay Packers’ 2026 schedule was announced last week. Today, I want people to lock in their predictions on which games the Packers will or won’t win this upcoming season. If you need a refresher, this is what Green Bay’s schedule will look like. Packers 2026 Schedule Personally, I think […]
Green Bay Packers News: Trey Smack’s origin story, more schedule tidbits
Sometimes, all it takes is having the right teammate at the right time. Ultimately, that’s one of the biggest reasons that Trey Smack is now the Green Bay Packers’ kicker. When he was going to high school in Maryland, Smack was a lacrosse player, not a kicker on his school’s football team. But he had […]
Packers last Wednesday game came nearly a century ago
The NFL has successfully invented a new timeslot with the Packers and Rams playing on “Thanksgiving Eve” this year. And though a game on the night before Thanksgiving might be a new phenomenon, it’s not the first time the Packers have played on a Wednesday. Buckle up, because this is a weird one. Though it’s […]
The Packers are playing some interesting financial games
The Packers’ way of doing business is so dyed-in-the-wool it’s hard not to notice when they’re doing things differently. And sometimes different feels bad. Weird. Uncomfortable. Reckless, even. Especially when money’s involved. First, the Packers spent $500,000 just for a look at Trevon Diggs, the former All-Pro cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys. One meaningless regular […]
You probably shouldn’t worry whether or not Trey Smack can kick in the cold
The Packers have both a new special teams coordinator and a new kicker. Naturally, one is going to get questions about the other. And since the new kicker most recently did the bulk of the kicking in the historically balmy state of Florida, people want to know whether or not he can make the transition […]
Packers Rookie Film Review: Jager Burton
We’re continuing our deep dive into the Green Bay Packers’ 2026 draft. Previously, I have written about Dani Dennis-Sutton and RJ Maryland. Today, we’re taking a look at Jager Burton, a center out of the University of Kentucky. As you might expect, his RAS is about what you’d expect from the Packers. For a center, […]
Packers’ rest differential in 2026 schedule balances out fairly evenly
When the Green Bay Packers play out their 2026 schedule, they will do so with one of the most bizarre and unusual slates of games of any team in recent memory. The Packers have a glut of strange weeks, and only occasionally do they play on back-to-back Sundays. In total, Green Bay will play on […]
Green Bay Packers News: The schedule is here and it’s spectacular
Except for those fans who absolutely hate prime time games, the Green Bay Packers’ fan base should be very pleased with how the team’s 2026 schedule sets up. Yes, the Packers are set to play one of the toughest slates of games of any team in 2026 based on their opponents’ combined winning percentage from […]
Packers Schedule: Green Bay catches a break with schedule, expected Micah Parsons return
The Green Bay Packers’ full schedule release has dropped, and as we noted at the time, the Packers got a relatively easy schedule before Week 5. That’s a notable week, because it will be the week that players who return from the physically unable to perform list are first able to return to the field […]
Green Bay Packers’ full 2026 schedule leaks
An hour before the NFL was set to begin its schedule release, Dominique Yates of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel was able to report the full Green Bay Packers schedule, along with their kickoff times and the channels that they’ll be playing on. Prior to Yates’ report, we only had about half of the Packers’ 2026 […]
Packers fail TE Luke Lachey’s physical
Tight end Luke Lachey, whom the Green Bay Packers picked up off waivers on Tuesday, had his physical failed by the team on Thursday and is now a free agent. Lachey, a Y tight end, was the type of tight end that the Packers’ room was missing. After the draft, general manager Brian Gutekunst admitted […]
The NFL’s schedule release is more than just a list
Before we get started, yes, it is ridiculous that the NFL turns the RELEASE of the SCHEDULE into some big hairy deal that you will watch on TV. In the universal perspective, nothing could be more banal than the release of a list that is already made and out there! However… The NFL schedule is […]
Packers reportedly to play Bears on Christmas Day in 2nd Netflix game
Green Bay Packers fans had better get their Netflix subscriptions renewed for the 2026 season. On Thursday morning, a little less than 12 hours before the full 2026 NFL schedule was released, a leak has been reported that the Packers will have a second game broadcast on the streaming platform around a major holiday. The […]
