Packers Discussion: Who will take the biggest jump in 2026?
Let’s have some fun with this one. Which Green Bay Packers player do you think will take the biggest jump in the upcoming season? To me, there are a couple of candidates. One is Jordan Morgan, who will be moving to the tackle position full-time, where he’s played significantly better than at guard, in his […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Packers named one of NFL’s biggest offseason losers
Is there any more peak offseason content than talking about the offseason during the offseason? I don’t know, but that’s where we’re at. With about a month to go until the Packers open their 2026 training camp, we’re at the point in the offseason when it seems all that most national writers can write about […]
How the Bears Botched Their Stadium Process
Aren’t you glad you cheer for a team with a decentralized ownership structure with the ability to raise capital as needed? I know I am. Makes me happy. The Chicago Bears, though. The Bears are owned by the McCaskey family, and their primary business is the Bears. They’re not owned by billionaires who made their […]
Packers preseason opponents skip joint practices
It’s already been announced that the Green Bay Packers will have a joint practice with the Arizona Cardinals going into the final week of the preseason, but upon the announcement, it was interesting to me that the Packers only had one set of joint practices this year – as head coach Matt LaFleur has generally […]
Green Bay Packers Roster Preview: Offensive Line
It’s time to turn our attention to the offensive line, the unit most Green Bay Packers fans have questions about on the offensive side of the ball. Before going into the line, though, read our previews on the quarterback, receiver and tight end positions, if you haven’t already. LT Jordan Morgan LG Aaron Banks C […]
Green Bay Packers News: Will Matthew Golden break out in 2026?
Much to the frustration of eager Packers fans, Green Bay spent much of first-round WR Matthew Golden’s rookie season bringing him along slowly. Injuries and a crowded receiver room limited his opportunities, and he finished the year with just 29 receptions for 361 yards and one touchdown. However, the team has taken many actions this […]
Alex Freeman, son of Antonio Freeman, scores for US in World Cup
Alex Freeman, 21, had only scored in two previous games for the U.S. National team before Friday’s World Cup match against Australia. The son of Green Bay Packers Hall of Famer Antonio Freeman was able to punch in a header to give the Americans a 2-0 lead in the first half. The goal was initially […]
Former Packer Mike Pennel is a ‘person of interest’ in the death of missing woman
Former Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Mike Pennel, who has also played with the New York Jets, New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs, Chicago Bears, Atlanta Falcons and Cincinnati Bengals, is now being described as a “person of interest” in the possible homicide of a missing woman, according to authorities in the Dominican Republic, per […]
Packers reveal 2026 training camp schedule with 12 public practices
Start getting your summer schedules in order. The Green Bay Packers have released their schedule for training camp this year, with the first practice set for Wednesday, July 29th. The Packers will have 12 practice sessions that are open to the public this year, not including the team’s annual Family Night. Each of their first […]
Green Bay Packers News: Christian Watson’s incentives revealed
The contract that Christian Watson signed recently dropped down in apparent value by about $15 million once the deal’s structure was revealed, and this Friday morning the details of those incentives have been released. The Green bay Packers will surely hope that Watson hits many of these incentives, which would pay out based on receiving […]
UFL 2026 tracker: Which players are coming to the NFL?
The UFL season has concluded, as the expansion Louisville Kings defeated the DC Defenders in the championship game last weekend. With the league’s season now over, a new crop of players has become available for NFL teams to sign. The Green Bay Packers have added plenty of spring league players over the years, with the […]
Thursday Cheese Curds: Packers’ corners already drawing attention
No position on defense needed more attention than cornerback this offseason. And, arguably, no position got more. The Packers retained both starting corners from a year ago, fixed their mistake by moving on from Nate Hobbs, signed Benjamin St-Juste, and drafted Brandon Cisse in the second round. Given the resources available, that’s about as comprehensive […]
Packers Discussion: Who makes the 53-man roster — post-minicamp edition
With minicamp now over and the veterans out for summer break, let’s take another stab at the 53-man roster. I don’t think too much has changed since our post-draft prediction, and there wasn’t anything earth-shattering at minicamp (outside of Micah Parsons announcing that he will start the year on the PUP list), but maybe there […]
The story of Mike Wahle, the Packers’ only pick in the supplemental draft
With Brendan Sorsby a potential target in this summer’s supplemental draft, now’s the perfect time to look back at the one and only time the Packers have made a pick in the bidding war that is the NFL’s second draft. Let’s turn back the clock to 1998 for the story of Mike Wahle. Like Sorsby, […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: Can Lukas Van Ness finally capitalize on his potential?
For years, Lukas Van Ness has lived in a place called potential. Everything about Van Ness as a prospect has been tantalizing. A raw but promising skill set as a pass rusher. Incredible athleticism. Positional versatility. He has always had it all. And what has it become? Not much, if we’re being honest. The promise […]
Green Bay Packers News: Chris Brooks could be an insurance policy
Chris Brooks won’t lead the team in rushing and probably won’t generate many headlines this summer. But there is an argument that no backup on the Green Bay Packers’ offense carries more importance in 2026. The truth is, there’s uncertainty surrounding the running back room. While MarShawn Lloyd remains an intriguing athlete and someone I’ve […]
Packers Discussion: Should Green Bay be interested in Brendan Sorsby?
If you haven’t heard the news, former Indiana, Cincinnati and now Texas Tech quarterback Bredan Sorsby has applied for the 2026 supplemental draft. Sorsby (and Tech) was previously fighting to remain eligible to play college football this year after the NCAA attempted to ban him from the sport after it was revealed that he had […]
Packers re-sign TE Luke Lachey, release WR
Earlier this offseason, the Green Bay Packers picked up former Houston Texans tight end Luke Lachey on waivers when he became available. Upon reporting to Green Bay, though, the Packers failed Lachey’s physical, even though the Texans didn’t waive him with an injured designation. Now, Lachey’s injury issues seem to be in the past, as […]
Packers 2025 Callsheet: 3rd & Short
If you’re new to this series, we’re reviewing how the Green Bay Packers offense performed in 2025 by down & distance. We’re doing that by building out a call sheet. I ran it all down in my initial post. This is the 8th article in the series, where we’re looking at 3rd & Short (where “Short” […]
Green Bay Packers News: Packers’ World Cup connection is off to good start
Your average sports fan isn’t worried about American Football for the next several weeks. No, the other football is dominating sports discussion in North America, thanks to the 2026 World Cup taking place across the continent. From seeing the residents of Lawrence, Kansas endearingly open their hometown to the Algerian national team to German fans […]
Did trying to get bigger on the offensive line actually work for the Packers?
The Packers have made a conscious effort over the past couple of years to get bigger on their offensive line. It seemed obvious at a glance: they signed the generously proportioned Aaron Banks last spring, then spent a second round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on Anthony Belton, who didn’t get the nickname “Escalade” […]
The long-term effects of the Packers’ pre-draft visit strategy
Tracking the Packers’ pre-draft visits is always a good idea. I’ve wrote about this several times in this year’s pre-draft prep process, and, true to form, the Packers did what they always do. Four pre-draft visitors are now in Green Bay: quarterback Kyron Drones, edge rusher Nyjalik Kelly, linebacker T.J. Quinn, and offensive lineman Josh […]
Fantasy football is ruining our ability to evaluate players
Over the last few weeks, my timeline and mentions have been filled with unnecessary discourse about two of the top receivers on the Green Bay Packers in Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. Immediately following Watson’s extension, which was initially reported as being worth up to $110 million, social media was full of people saying things […]
What does a role for MarShawn Lloyd actually look like?
MarShawn Lloyd has been little more than an idea for his two years in Green Bay. A 2024 third round pick out of USC, Lloyd has seen the field for just one regular season game in the intervening two years. He’s been injured so much we can’t even given him the Christian Watson caveat. We […]
Green Bay Packers News: School’s (almost) out for summer
For most members of the Green Bay Packers’ roster, it’s summer break time. The Packers wrapped up minicamp on Thursday with a third and final practice for the week, after which veterans were released for the summer. Rookies will stick around for one more week of OTAs, but for most players, the time off begins […]
