Packers sign international player
Earlier today, it was revealed that the Green Bay Packers had signed cornerback Tyron Herring to the practice squad, based on him being spotted by the media at the Packers’ Wednesday practice. What we now know, though, is that Green Bay actually signed two practice squadders today, as the team announced that the Packers had […]
Packers vs. Panthers Injury Report: Brandon McManus remains limited
The Green Bay Packers held their first practice of the week on Wednesday after a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers over the weekend. In it, three players were non-participants: receiver Dontayvion Wicks (calf), defensive end Lukas Van Ness (foot) and linebacker Nick Niemann (pectoral). Both Wicks and Van Ness were inactive due to injury against […]
Packers’ Jayden Reed is starting to work on the sideline in practice
When Green Bay Packers slot receiver Jayden Reed went down with a broken collarbone in Week 2, I thought it would be a long while before we saw him back in action with the team. Reed not only needed surgery to fix his collarbone issue, but he was already dealing with a foot injury that […]
Packers re-sign cornerback
Earlier this week, the Green Bay Packers lost cornerback Micah Robinson, a 2025 draft pick, when the Tennessee Titans plucked Robinson off the Packers’ practice squad. This left the Packers with just five cornerbacks in practice, all members of the 53-man roster, including two — Bo Melton and Kamal Hadden — who had never played […]
Matt LaFleur gives update on MarShawn Lloyd’s injury
Green Bay Packers running back MarShawn Lloyd began the regular season on the injured reserve after suffering a hamstring injury in August. Lloyd’s short time with the Packers has already been marred by health issues, including an emergency appendectomy during the third-round pick’s rookie season. When asked if Lloyd would be back in the near […]
Packers QB Jordan Love named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for Week 8
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for Week 8 after his stellar performance in the team’s 35-25 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night. Love went 29/37 for 360 yards, 3 touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 134.2, which is a career-high for […]
Packers Week 9 TV Map: Small broadcast footprint for Packers vs. Panthers
This weekend, the Green Bay Packers’ game will be televised on an impressively small number of local stations around the United States. Their Week 9 matchup with the Carolina Panthers is up against a few unfortunate factors: First, it is not a premier opponent, nor is this game even a divisional matchup; second, it is […]
Remember when Reggie White played for the Carolina Panthers?
The end of a Hall of Fame career is not always glorious. In fact, it often involves an iconic athlete playing out the string in an unfamiliar place for an unfamiliar team. Think Johnny Unitas with the San Diego Chargers or Brett Favre with the Minnesota Vikings. Think Emmitt Smith with the Arizona Cardinals. Think […]
Packers Depth Chart Update: Christian Watson overtakes Matthew Golden at WR
Sorry for the day delay, but I’ve finally pored through the Green Bay Packers’ win over the Pittsburgh Steelers to bring up all the little nuggets about what changed on the team’s depth chart, both going into the game and in-game. Here’s our explainer on who is playing where, why and how often for your […]
Packers work out 2 international players
The Green Bay Packers worked out only two players on Tuesday, with the surprise being that neither was a cornerback. At the moment, the Packers have just five cornerbacks on their 53-man roster, and the team no longer has a practice squad cornerback after the loss of Micah Robinson, who was poached by the Tennessee […]
The Packers’ next Howard Green is out there
When the Green Bay Packers won their last Super Bowl in 2010, the biggest in-season addition that the team made was the waiver claim of defensive lineman Howard Green, who helped the Packers get over the injury hump at the position. Green wound up starting in three of the Packers’ playoff games that year, even […]
Packers Week 9 Power Rankings Round Up
The Green Bay Packers sit in the top spot in the NFC with a 5-1-1 record, but the margins are extremely thin right now. For example, had they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, that one extra loss would have dropped the Packers all the way down to the sixth seed in the NFC. One single […]
Packers Film Room: Tucker Kraft’s big day in Pittsburgh
I’ll say that I didn’t feel great on Sunday night when the Green Bay Packers went into halftime down 16-7 to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The offense had looked pretty good up until that point, but some key drops on 3rd down led to some drives that had sputtered out. Then they outscored the Steelers 28-9 […]
Monday Night Football Game Thread: Commanders and Chiefs wrap up Week 8
This evening, the NFL brings its week 8 schedule to a close with a single game on Monday Night Football. Out of the 13 games across the NFL in week 8, eight of them featured cross-conference matchups. However, it was a brutal week for the NFC against AFC opponents, as NFC teams went just 1-6 […]
Minnesota Vikings claim former Green Bay Packer on waivers
The Minnesota Vikings placed quarterback Carson Wentz on the injured reserve on Monday, due to a shoulder surgery that will end his 2025 campaign. Without Wentz, the 3-4 Vikings are left with just J.J. McCarthy, who is coming off “an ankle injury,” and undrafted rookie Max Brosmer at the position. With the open roster spot […]
Matt LaFleur talks Brandon McManus injury, Nate Hobbs benching
Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus missed his first two field goal attempts on Sunday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers this week, leading to questions about whether he was 100 percent for the game. McManus hadn’t kicked in a game in a month due to a quad injury, leading to Lucas Havrisik — who […]
Packers lose rookie draft pick to Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans traded slot cornerback Roger McCreary to the Los Angeles Rams earlier today, which left Tennessee with a void at the position on its 53-man roster. To make up for the cornerback out, the Titans plucked rookie seventh-round pick Micah Robinson off the Green Bay Packers’ practice squad. This is the second time […]
Panthers hope Bryce Young will practice on Wednesday
In Week 7, Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young injured his ankle against the New York Jets, forcing backup Andy Dalton into the game to finish out the 13-6 Panthers win. Last week, without Young, Carolina was smoked by the Buffalo Bills to the tune of 40-9. Now, the Panthers are hoping that Young will return […]
Packers QB Jordan Love should be in the MVP conversation after Week 8
The NFL’s Most Valuable Player award is essentially a quarterback honor in modern days. Generally, the award goes to a quarterback who leads his team to a playoff spot by putting up gaudy numbers and delivering in big moments on national television, with additional weight being placed on the games down the stretch in the […]
Packers Week 8 Winners and Losers vs. the Steelers
It was a night of reunions as the Green Bay Packers traveled to Pittsburgh to take on their former franchise QB, Aaron Rodgers, and the Steelers. It had all the makings of a highly anticipated game: both teams are at the top of their respective divisions, both starting QBs are having good seasons, and we […]
Christian Watson’s return opens the Packers’ offensive playbook
Christian Watson isn’t a particularly difficult player to understand. He’s big, he’s fast, and he actually has become a reliable catcher of the football after some rookie scuffles in that department. Metric after metric shows how important he has been, for years, in helping the Green Bay Packers beat man coverage. When he went out […]
Packers QB Jordan Love nominated for FedEx Air/Ground Player of the Week
Jordan Love put on a show on Sunday night as the Green Bay Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 35-25 in a highly anticipated matchup that saw Aaron Rodgers facing his former team for the first time since the Packers traded him in 2023. Love was 29 of 37 (78.4%), including putting up 20 consecutive completed […]
Packers Week 9 Opening Odds: How big a favorite is Green Bay over Panthers?
You know the Green Bay Packers will be favored in their Week 9 game against the Carolina Panthers. Green Bay is 5-1-1, coming off a huge, emotional victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, and is playing at home. The Panthers just got drubbed 40-9 by the Buffalo Bills and may be starting Andy Dalton at quarterback […]
Cheese Curds, 10/27: Packers offense shines in Rodgers reunion
In a game that was supposed to be all about Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers turned the narrative on its head on Sunday night and made it all about them. Jordan love’s 360 yards and three touchdowns, Tucker Kraft’s monster night, and a combined three sacks from the team’s top two defensive ends flipped […]
Aaron Rodgers said Packers fans forced the Steelers into the silent count
Last week, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett said that Green Bay Packers fans making the trip out west forced the Cardinals’ offense to have to use their silent count at home. This isn’t anything new for the Packers, one of the bigger fan bases in the league, but it does seem to be a recurring […]
