Pete Nance headlines Milwaukee Bucks’ latest roster cuts ahead of opening night

The Milwaukee Bucks waive forward/center Pete Nance, along with rookies Johni Broome and Jake Stephens, as they trim the roster ahead of the 2026‑27 season. Nance, who logged 47 games last season (5.4 pts, 2.7 reb per 15.7 min) and posted a 23‑point, five‑three‑pointer outburst against Houston in April, appeared in four preseason games this year, averaging 4.0 pts and 3.3 reb. The move follows a 128‑127 overtime loss to Indiana on Oct. 18, and the Bucks still need to drop one more player to meet the 16‑contract limit.

Jordan Love identifies major concern for Packers despite win over Cowboys

After a Sunday night win over the Dallas Cowboys, Packers quarterback Jordan Love says the team’s biggest hurdle remains a sputtering run game. Green Bay managed only 57 rushing yards against Dallas, continuing a season‑low average of 60 yards per game—the lowest in the NFL. Love points to getting the ground attack solidified as the key to a more reliable offense. The shortfall is partly blamed on the absence of veteran back Josh Jacobs, who is under investigation and may return by Week 7. The Packers aim to extend their four‑game streak when they travel to Detroit on Oct. 25.

Green Bay Packers: Keisean Nixon calls his body ‘my resume’

Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon confirms he'll suit up for Sunday night’s primetime clash with the Dallas Cowboys despite a recent groin strain, Coach Matt LaFleur says. Nixon missed Wednesday’s practice but returned for limited work Thursday‑Friday and reports feeling fully recovered. He emphasizes his “body as a resume” mindset, vowing to play every Sunday. The Packers (3‑2) also list safety Evan Williams back, while fellow corner Brandon Cisse is questionable with a hip issue and Benjamin St‑Juste remains out. The matchup pits the secondary against Dak Prescott’s pass‑heavy attack, with the Cowboys sitting at 2‑3. Game tips off at 7:20 p.m. CT on NBC and Peacock.

Green Bay Packers Place Two Players on IR before Cowboys game

Coach Matt LaFleur says the team has a “next‑man‑up” plan, with Anthony Campbell’s ankle status pending and Devonte Wyatt working back from a prior injury. The 3‑2 Packers will host the 2‑3 Cowboys at 7:20 p.m. CT on NBC/Peacock.

Green Bay Packers: Zaire Franklin says the Dallas Cowboys have ‘two alphas’

Packers linebacker Zaire Franklin highlights his on‑field leadership and pre‑game scouting ahead of Sunday’s clash with the Dallas Cowboys. After forcing a fumble in the 31‑7 win over Chicago on Oct. 11, Franklin says he stays active on the sideline, cheering teammates and monitoring offense, defense and special teams. He warns that Dallas features “two alphas” – veteran QB Dak Prescott and weapons CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens – and stresses the need for disciplined play. Franklin also paid tribute to injured DT Javon Hargrave. The Packers (3‑2) host the Cowboys (2‑3) at 7:20 p.m. CT on NBC/Peacock.
