Packers offense needs Matthew Golden to break out to reach its ceiling

If you thought things on the Green Bay Packers-related internet this week were bad, I can inform you that they were just as bad, if not worse, in person at Lambeau Field on Monday night. The Packers offense spent the entire evening shooting itself in the foot between poor offensive line play, hyper-conservative playcalling, procedural […]

Green Bay Packers News: Are the Giants finally a ‘get right’ opponent?

The Green Bay Packers have three losses by a combined 9 points in 2025. While the defense has held up their end of the bargain, the offense has been, at times, disjointed, undisciplined, and lacking in core philosophy. That’s the recipe that’s heating up head coach Matt LaFleur’s seat, despite being 5-3-1.  New scene. Enter: The […]

A Minnesota Viking is earning the Packers an extra draft pick

The Green Bay Packers might actually end up netting an extra draft pick in 2026 thanks to former Packers linebacker Eric Wilson, because he’s started the last nine games for the Minnesota Vikings, jumping ahead of projected starter Ivan Pace in snaps played. Too often, we think of compensatory draft picks as just cash coming […]

Savion Williams is getting the ball

One of the interesting quirks of the Green Bay Packers’ offense right now is the team’s usage of third-round rookie receiver Savion Williams. If you look at how the Packers’ depth chart stacks up right now, you can make the case that he’s behind Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden, Dontayvion Wicks, Malik […]

Packers sign lineman for 5th time

With center Elgton Jenkins going on the injured reserve and linebacker Kristian Welch being promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, the Green Bay Packers had a vacancy to fill on their practice squad this week.

LaFleur: Elgton Jenkins is ‘highly unlikely’ to come back this year

In his pre-practice press conference on Wednesday, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stated that center Elgton Jenkins, who was placed on the injured reserve on Tuesday, is “highly unlikely” to return to the team in 2025. ESPN’s Rob Demovsky had previously reported that Jenkins’ fractured leg diagnosis could have led to a quicker […]

The Packers will stick with Brandon McManus

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus is struggling. Outside of the red zone this year, he’s just three of nine on field goals. His overall field goal percentage of just 64.7 percent is the worst in the NFL among qualifiers. Despite going 20 of 21 in 2024, his first year in Green Bay, McManus is […]

This week, the Green Bay Packers’ game will have another relatively limited broadcast footprint across the United States.

Wednesday Cheese Curds: Matt LaFleur facing plenty of questions

I really don’t know where I land on the “fire Matt LaFleur” issue. Should the Packers pull the trigger or not? Can LaFleur fix this? If so, what will it take? If not, what should happen? I don’t know the answer to any of these questions. But I get why people are asking. It all […]

Jaire Alexander to step away from Eagles, contemplate retirement

When the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Green Bay Packers, they did so with some fresh faces who were just added to the 53-man roster, including Brandon Graham, Jaelan Phillips and Michael Carter II. Interestingly, one of the players who didn’t make the trip to Green Bay was cornerback Jaire Alexander, a former Packer who was […]

Asante Samuel Jr. signs with the Pittsburgh Steelers

Former Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., who took a visit with the Green Bay Packers recently, has signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers’ practice squad on Tuesday.

Packers place Elgton Jenkins on IR, bring up Kristian Welch

The Green Bay Packers have officially put center Elgton Jenkins on the injured reserve after he fractured his lower leg in the Monday Night Football loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Without Jenkins, Sean Rhyan, who was previously rotating in at right guard, will start for the Packers at center. In a corresponding roster move, Green […]

The Packers’ offensive line is only going to get worse

The Green Bay Packers’ offense is sputtering. They have no idea how to handle split-safety looks that take the extra coverage defenders into the deeper portion of the field. So far, head coach Matt LaFleur’s answers this year have been to check down the ball in the passing game and to run the football. Unfortunately, […]

Week 11 NFL Power Rankings: Packers rightfully tumble

A couple of months ago, the Green Bay Packers were on top of the world. After starting off 2-0 by beating down the Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders, it was hard to find someone who didn’t think the Packers were going to be a top-three team in the NFL, based on power rankings. Then the […]

Packers Week 10 Winners and Losers vs. the Eagles

I’m starting to think the Green Bay Packers may have a problem. After facing off against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football and losing a 10-7 snoozefest, the Packers are now 5-3-1 and 3rd place in the NFC North behind the Detroit Lions and, wait for it: the Chicago Bears. With injuries abound in […]

Aaron Banks has been an expensive mistake for the Packers

Aaron Banks was supposed to be the key that unlocked the Packers’ ground game. A hulking 6-foot-5 and 325 pounds, Banks’ arrival courtesy of a four-year, $77 million contract was supposed to free up Elgton Jenkins to move to center while Banks held down the left guard spot. Neither of those moves has worked. Jenkins […]
