Rams trade for Myles Garrett, shaking up power balance in NFC
For the second straight summer, an NFC contender has traded for one of the NFL’s best pass-rushers. Last year it was the Green Bay Packers making the big splash, acquiring Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys; this year, the Los Angeles Rams are the team landing a superstar. According to Ian Rapoport and others from […]
NFLPA announces Packers royalty payment earnings
The NFL players’ union has announced the redistribution of funds from royalty payments that players received during last season. These payments are what players made for their likeness being distributed, from their inclusion in the Madden video game to jersey and collectable sales. At the top of this year’s leaderboard is Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur […]
Packers schedule 2026 Shareholders Meeting for July 27th
The first indication of when training camp will start for the Green Bay Packers in 2026 is here. The franchise typically begins camp with its annual Shareholders Meeting; in a press release on Friday, the team has announced the date and time for that event. This year, the Packers’ Shareholders Meeting will take place at […]
Green Bay Packers News: Christian Watson’s breakout can’t come soon enough
Believe it or not, Christian Watson has yet to eclipse 620 receiving yards in a single season. Watson has put up between 611 and 620 yards in three of his first four years in the NFL, but injuries have been a huge reason for that. He has missed at least two games in every NFL […]
Former Packers rank among top UFL rushers
On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers had their first media-open organized team activities of the 2026 offseason. Unfortunately, their running back room was a little thin, as Josh Jacobs was just being released from jail that day and both MarShawn Lloyd and Damien Martinez were unavailable to use during team drills due to injury. This […]
Green Bay Packers News: More early takeaways from OTAs
One way or another, the Green Bay Packers need to get something substantial from MarShawn Lloyd in 2026. The former third-round draft pick with one NFL game to his name may well be in line to start at running back for the Packers this season, but even he was not the team’s first running back […]
Packers Rookie Film Review: Kyron Drones
We’re continuing our deep dive into the Packers 2026 draft. Previously, I have written about Dani Dennis-Sutton, RJ Maryland and Jager Burton. Today, we’re digging into Kyron Drones, an undrafted free agent QB out of Virginia Tech. I’m sure he and Tyrod Taylor will have a lot to talk about. Drones didn’t run the 3-cone […]
Antonio Freeman’s son makes US World Cup roster
Alex Freeman, son of former Green Bay Packers receiver Antonio Freeman, officially made the United States’ World Cup roster for this summer’s tournament. The 21-year-old has played 15 games with the US’ senior team since 2025, after previously playing for the country’s U17, U19 and U23 squads. Freeman trained with Orlando City’s academy as a […]
Bo Melton has officially moved back to receiver
Bo Melton spent most of last offseason training to play cornerback, a position he never ended up getting on the field for during the 2025 season. Despite the reps at cornerback, Melton did see playing time at receiver, the position he originally played for the Green Bay Packers, throughout the year. Up until this week, […]
Thursday Cheese Curds: Josh Jacobs situation looms over OTAs
We’ve officially seen the Packers play something vaguely resembling football, and it’s all been overshadowed by legal proceedings off the field. The Packers won’t talk about it, and Josh Jacobs is, of course, nowhere to be seen, but the running back’s arrest and subsequent release (as well as the DA’s statement about an ongoing search […]
Dispatch audio released regarding alleged Josh Jacobs domestic abuse incident
TMJ4 in Milwaukee received dispatch audio from a disturbance at Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs’ home on Saturday that eventually led to him turning himself in on Tuesday on the allegation of five charges. Jacobs was released on Wednesday without being officially charged by Brown County, whose district attorney requested additional investigation before […]
Packers open OTAs, 1st-team defense rotates heavily
Before practice started on Wednesday, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur essentially punted on every question he received about the status of running back Josh Jacobs, who turned himself in on Tuesday on five accusations, including felony strangulation and suffocation. Jacobs was released from Brown County jail on Wednesday, with the district attorney stating […]
It’s time to make Jordan Love the sole focus of the Packers offense
No matter what happens with Josh Jacobs’ legal situation, the Packers were probably going to have to do without him at some point this season, anyway. Jacobs turned 28 in February. He’s touched the ball more than 2,100 times in his NFL career. He played a career low 554 snaps last season due to a […]
The Packers are severely lacking running back depth
The Green Bay Packers are in the news for the wrong reasons this week after running back Josh Jacobs turned himself in to authorities while being booked with five different charges related to domestic abuse. There are far more important and serious matters to discuss involving this arrest, the allegations, an ongoing investigation, and the […]
Wednesday Cheese Curds: What do the Packers do at running back?
Present circumstances notwithstanding, the Packers’ backup running back situation was already a bit of a mystery. Chris Brooks has been useful, but has never played a particularly big role. 2024 third round pick MarShawn Lloyd had hurt about every body part you can imagine. It’s spare parts and undrafted free agent types beyond that. That’s […]
Packers RB Josh Jacobs arrested for domestic abuse complaint
On Tuesday, Green Bay Packers starting running back Josh Jacobs turned himself in to the Hobart/Lawrence Police Department, just west of Green Bay. According to the police department’s statement, they were “dispatched to a disturbance complaint” involving Jacobs at 8:37 a.m. on Saturday, May 23rd. Jacobs is currently booked with five charges: The strangulation and […]
Packers Discussion: Which player needs to improve the most in 2026?
There’s not that much debate about who will be in the preferred starting lineup for the Green Bay Packers in 2026. If everyone is healthy, the offense seems pretty set. On defense, the questions revolve around who will be the third defensive lineman in 3-4 looks (either Karl Brooks, rookie Chris McClellan or others) or […]
Green Bay Packers Roster Preview: Quarterback
Over the next couple of weeks, we’re going to do deep dives at every position on the Green Bay Packers’ roster, touching on every single player currently on the 91-man team. Today, we’re going to start with the quarterback position, where there’s no drama around who will be QB1, but three of the four quarterbacks […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Packers get to work at OTAs
The 2026 Green Bay Packers season is (kinda, sorta) off and running as of today with the start of Organized Team Activities, or OTAs. Not training camp. Not minicamp. OTAs. But just like those other two things, we’re talking about practice. This is the actual work of building an NFL team. Brian Gutekunst can go […]
Packers Discussion: Which game are you most looking forward to?
This question is pretty straightforward: Which game are you most looking forward to in 2026? If you need a refresher, here’s the Green Bay Packers’ 2026 schedule: Personally, I’m circling the Week 5 game against the Chicago Bears. It’ll be the first time that the Packers have a chance to avenge their playoff loss from […]
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 […]
