Kyle McCord Should Fix One Thing
When it comes to backup quarterbacks, I have two profiles that I prefer. The first is the hyper-athlete, along the lines of Malik Willis, because with an extremely shifty, mobile quarterback, at least you can do SOMETHING if he’s forced into the game. Willis is perhaps the best possible version of this quarterback because he […]
Packers to watch in the preseason Broncos matchup
The NFL regular season is quickly approaching, but a few Green Bay Packers players are facing big moments in the preseason, including in Friday night’s contest against the Denver Broncos. Whether it’s players fighting for starting/rotational roles on either side of the ball, or under-the-radar names simply trying to make the 53-man roster, there’s still […]
Packers tease new uniform reveal coming next Tuesday
The wait for the Packers’ long-anticipated/long-feared “Rivalries” uniform reveal is almost over. The team posted a short teaser video today, announcing the reveal of new alternate uniforms will be coming on Tuesday, August 25. The Packers are getting their new look courtesy of the dual NFL/Nike “Rivalries” uniform venture, duplicating similar initiatives in both the […]
Green Bay Packers News: Packers’ cornerback battle is getting interesting
Keisean Nixon, Carrington Valentine, Brandon Cisse and Benjamin St-Juste have all gotten first-team snaps during camp, and as Justis Mosqueda recently noted, it seems like the competition at corner is really opening up. So as Green Bay takes the field against the Denver Broncos on Friday night, noting the cornerback rotation will be particularly interesting […]
Opportunity knocks for Packers edge rusher Brenton Cox
Brenton Cox Jr. has been a model citizen for more than three years in Green Bay. Now he has a rare — but brief — opportunity to let his talent shine. Any discussion about Cox should begin with that first point; since arriving in Green Bay as an undrafted free agent in 2023, he’s been […]
What is the Packers’ plan for Anthony Belton?
Under Matt LaFleur, the Packers have never been afraid to move offensive linemen around. As we head into his eighth season as head coach, constant shifting up front has become commonplace. Guards become tackles, tackles become guards, anybody can play center at any time, and players flip flop from one side to another and back […]
Packers vs. Broncos Preseason Week 2: Game time, how to watch, TV/streaming, & more
The Green Bay Packers have traveled west this week for their second preseason game, a game that they will be playing at significant altitude. The Denver Broncos are playing host to the Packers this week as the two teams look to continue preparing for the regular season to start in a few weeks. Tonight’s game […]
Jonathan Gannon’s 2023 Cardinals defense prioritized zone over everything else
Preseason is in full swing and we’re getting our first glimpse into the defensive scheme of Jonathan Gannon. I’ll have more on that in the coming weeks but first, we still need to fill in the context of what his scheme is and where it went, and we’ll do that by diving into his first […]
Isaiah Neyor is a truly interesting wide receiver prospect
Both J. Michael Sturdivant and Isaiah Neyor flashed a few times at the back end of Green Bay Packers’ first preseason game in Pittsburgh. I’ve written a bit about Sturdivant before, and while he’s not my favorite wide receiver prospect, he is very toolsy, he fits a need on the team, and he has some […]
Which Packers players are most primed for success in 2026?
The Green Bay Packers are heading into the 2026 season looking much different than they did last year. After parting ways during the offseason with players like receivers Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks, as well as kicker Brandon McManus and cornerback Nate Hobbs, plenty of doors have opened for younger and fresher faces to take […]
Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 1: Isaiah Neyor & J. Michael Sturdivant
The Packers’ first preseason game is slowly drifting further into the rear view mirror, but I still have some clips so I’m gonna write about them. Today, we’ve got a mini film room and we’re looking at Isaiah Neyor and J. Michael Sturdivant. Isaiah Neyor Neyor was an undrafted free agent pick-up by the 49ers […]
Green Bay Packers News: Kamal Hadden does the safety dance in the slot
Xavier McKinney and Evan Williams make a pretty darn good tandem, and the safety group has quickly gone from a massive hole to a massive strength for the Green Bay Packers over a very brief period. With those two players locking down the back end and Javon Bullard taking a big step forward in the […]
NFL players are now suing to have the option for NCAA eligibility
Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports reported earlier today that there are current NFL players who are looking to be granted an extra year of college football eligibility. If you haven’t been following the news at the college level, the NCAA has granted a five-year eligibility agreement to close some of the loopholes that allowed players […]
Packers Training Camp Recap: Cornerback and offensive line competitions are a full go
Today marked the final practice the Green Bay Packers have before their travel day tomorrow, as they’ll play the Denver Broncos on Friday. Per head coach Matt LaFleur yesterday, the plan is for starters to play two drives against the Broncos, which is expected to be their last preseason opportunity. In Week 3, the Packers […]
For better or worse, Keisean Nixon is central to Packers DB plans
Keisean Nixon is going to be a big part of the Packers’ defense in 2026. Whether you view that as a promise or a threat is up to you, but it’s true either way. Nixon, for all his foibles and follies in training camp this year, is essentially a load-bearing piece of the Packers’ secondary. […]
Green Bay Packers News: Aaron Banks’ return raises stakes in OL battle
It’s not at all a stretch to say Aaron Banks has been a disappointment as a free agent signing. The $77 million man was active in 11-on-11 drills for the first time in this year’s training camp on Tuesday, but he has ground to make up. 2026 draft pick Jager Burton and Jacob Monk have […]
What kind of run game do the Packers actually want?
The Green Bay Packers seem to be in a state of continual flux on the offensive line lately. Last season, the team appeared to be moving in the direction of a bigger, power-focused line, but the summer of 2026 suggests that the rubber band is snapping back a bit in favor of a more athletic […]
Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 1: Nyjalik Kelly
The Green Bay Packers have played their first preseason game and have their second one coming up. Before that second game hits, we’re going to try to hit a handful of these mini film rooms and look and individual players. Today, we’re looking at Nyjalik Kelly. Kelly signed with the Packers this spring as an […]
How did Jacob Monk and Jager Burton play in the Packers’ preseason opener? Decide for yourselves
There are a lot of strong feelings right now about what the Green Bay Packers should be doing at the guard position in 2026, since it seemed like the running game got better down the stretch when Aaron Banks got healthy, and Anthony Belton was inserted into the lineup. While Belton has his protection flaws, […]
Josh Jacobs suspension still on the table but uncertain following May arrest
It has been nearly three months since Green Bay Packers RB Josh Jacobs was arrested on charges of felony strangulation and several other misdemeanors related to domestic abuse. That’s also just about how long it’s been since we last had an update from the team, the league, or law enforcement officials. Jacobs has said via […]
Packers claim edge rusher Arden Walker, fill roster
Several days after the Green Bay Packers opened up a roster spot by waiving quarterback Kyron Drones, the team finally filled the position today by claiming pass-rusher Arden Walker off waivers. Walker, an undrafted rookie, was waived by the Minnesota Vikings — who also run a 3-4 defense — after the team replaced Walker with […]
Packers Training Camp Recap: Cornerback competition ramps up
Obviously, cornerback Keisean Nixon generated some buzz on Sunday after he told the press that he guesses he’s “being punished right now” by working occasionally with the second-team defense, and stayed on the field with both the first- and second-team defenses throughout the Green Bay Packers’ preseason opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Head coach Matt […]
Green Bay Packers News: What does the Packers’ future look like?
As the Packers head toward the end of training camp, let’s spare a thought for the future of the team. What will they look like in 2027 and beyond? Assuming Tucker Kraft’s extension is as done of a deal as everyone seems to think, pretty much every player of consequence is already locked in for […]
It’s time for the Packers to let Jordan Love rip it
After years of maintaining a balanced offensive attack, it’s time for the Green Bay Packers and Matt LaFleur’s offensive staff to let Jordan Love air it out in 2026. Over the last two seasons, the Packers have operated one of the more run-focused offenses in football. Last season, they ranked fifth in the NFL with […]
Which Packers players could play surprisingly big roles in 2026?
Every year, NFL teams need to rely on unheralded depth players to fill in at big moments. Sometimes, these players need to step up all season long due to early injuries — just think about the 2010 Packers going running back-by-committee, seeing Desmond Bishop take over a starting linebacker spot, or getting 8 starts and […]
