Report: Packers CB Nate Hobbs to miss several weeks with injury
Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs has not been having the year that he hoped to have with the team when he signed a four-year, $48 million contract with the Packers in free agency. First, he injured his knee in the summer and needed meniscus surgery to be ready for the regular season. Since returning […]
Monday Night Football Game Thread: Cardinals and Cowboys close out Week 9
This evening, a pair of NFC teams who have started the season rather unimpressively meet to try to take a step back towards contention in their respective divisions. The Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys have reached their current sub-.500 records in different ways, but both are multiple games back of their division leaders as they […]
Packers work out TE on Monday
The Green Bay Packers typically only have players in for workouts on Tuesdays, the day that players usually have off during the week. So it’s out of the norm that the Packers brought in three players on Monday, coming off their loss to the Carolina Panthers. It’s possible that this could be due to the […]
How is the Packers’ CB battle looking?
It’s pretty clear at this point that the Green Bay Packers will let their outside cornerback battle continue until a clear victor has been named. After the Pittsburgh Steelers game, head coach Matt LaFleur said that the team will consider all options, including moving Keisean Nixon out of a full-time role. While we haven’t seen […]
Without Tucker Kraft, the Packers’ passing game must change
Over the past couple of weeks, teams have really limited the Green Bay Packers’ ability to push the ball downfield. After games, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur repeatedly has stated that deep zone coverage schemes are the reason why quarterback Jordan Love consistently takes checkdowns on multi-level passing concepts and why the team calls so […]
Brandon McManus is still dealing with an injury issue
After the last two games, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has tried to downplay the quad injury that kicker Brandon McManus has dealt with this season. McManus missed two games with the quad issue, but returned to the field against the Pittsburgh Steelers two weekends ago. Since returning to the field, he’s missed […]
Packers release Kristian Welch
The Green Bay Packers announced on Monday that the team has released linebacker Kristian Welch, which is a surprise. Already, the Packers are going to gain an extra roster spot on the 53-man roster because tight end Tucker Kraft will eventually go on the injured reserve with a torn ACL. Beyond that, Welch was released […]
Matt LaFleur’s 4th down strategy is no numbers, just vibes
4th down decision making is, in general, a proxy for a football coach’s overall aggressiveness. In today’s NFL, it is the one area where a head coach ultimately has the sole responsibility for a major decision, and there is more data than ever available for coaches to put to use in order to evaluate a […]
The Green Bay Packers’ run defense is getting exposed
When the Green Bay Packers made the blockbuster trade for Micah Parsons, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones cited the acquisition of Kenny Clark as an important one for his defense to be able to stop the run. Although the Packers don’t regret trading for a Hall of Fame-caliber pass rusher, there’s a sliver of truth […]
Tucker Kraft Injury Update: Torn ACL confirmed for Packers tight end
8 games, 32 receptions, 489 yards, and six touchdowns. That will be the final statistics on Tucker Kraft’s 2025 season. On Sunday, the Green Bay Packers’ budding star tight end suffered a knee injury that knocked him out of the team’s game against the Carolina Panthers, and the extent of that injury was confirmed on […]
How will the Packers replace Tucker Kraft?
Right now, we’re awaiting confirmation of what feels inevitable: Tucker Kraft has a torn ACL and will miss the rest of the season. Ian Rapoport tweeted yesterday that the Packers fear that is the case, and I don’t think we have any reason to assume otherwise. That means the Packers are going to have to […]
Packers News: Tucker Kraft’s injury throws wrench into Green Bay’s offense
When the Green Bay Packers get into their facilities at Lambeau Field this morning, they will have a new, unwelcome challenge facing them. The coaching staff, particularly on offense, will have to figure out how to assemble a productive offense without one of their most important players. Tucker Kraft has become a do-it-all player for […]
NFC Playoff Picture: Green Bay Packers fall behind idle Eagles, Buccaneers after loss
The Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers were on the bye this week, so the Green Bay Packers could have put space between themselves and the rest of the conference. Instead, their last-second loss dropped them behind both idle teams. Green Bay is fourth in the NFC now. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Philadelphia Eagles […]
Packers Week 9 Winners and Losers vs. the Panthers
Happy birthday, Jordan Love; sorry your party’s so lame. The Green Bay Packers debuted their new throwback uniforms this Sunday against the Carolina Panthers and their depleted offensive line and…lost, by a score of 16-13. You’d think the Packers’ defensive front would feast in a game like this, correct? WRONG! For the first time in […]
Packers Snap Counts: Week 9 vs. Panthers
The Green Bay Packers lost to the Carolina Panthers. It sucked. I don’t want to think about the game too deeply right now. Instead of breaking down the game, let’s just take you through the Packers’ Week 9 snap counts. We can start this week’s autopsy with who was on the field on offense and […]
You just witnessed the biggest Packers upset ever
The Green Bay Packers began Sunday as 13.5-point favorites against the Carolina Panthers, who played a banged-up quarterback in Bryce Young behind an even more banged-up offensive line — one which was missing three starters due to injury. The Packers managed to outgain the Panthers 369 yards to 265 yards in the game, but Green […]
Reports: Fear is that Tucker Kraft tore his ACL
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said in his post-game press conference on Sunday, following the team’s loss to the Carolina Panthers, that he hadn’t even spoken to the training staff about tight end Tucker Kraft’s knee injury, but stated that “it does not look good.” NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport seems to have someone […]
Packers vs. Panthers Final Score: Green Bay sleepwalks in costly loss
The Green Bay Packers wore uniforms that evoked the 1923 version of their team on this windy Sunday when they took on the Carolina Panthers at Lambeau Field. Unfortunately, at times it looked like their game plan came from that era of football as well, and the team lost a brutal 16-13 decision at home. […]
Tucker Kraft carted to locker room with knee injury
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft, coming off one of the best performances for a tight end in NFL history against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, was injured against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. On a blocking play, Kraft’s right knee was caught in a pile caused by a Panthers defender going low on […]
Colby Wooden ruled out for Packers 2nd half
Green Bay Packers defensive tackle Colby Wooden left the action in the first half against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday with a shoulder injury. Initially, he was declared as questionable to return, but coming out of the half, the Packers ruled him out for the rest of the game. Wooden has been starting at nose […]

Philadelphia Eagles trade for Jaire Alexander before Green Bay Packers game in Week 10
When the Green Bay Packers host the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football next week, there will be a familiar face wearing midnight green and white on the visitor’s sideline.
