Could Isaiah Neyor Make Green Bay’s Final Roster?
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Isaiah Neyor has repeatedly made an impression throughout the offseason program. The second-year receiver originally signed with the San Francisco 49ers as an undrafted rookie last year before finding his way to Green Bay just three months later. LaFleur spoke highly of Isaiah Neyor before practice. Just caught a nice comebacker near sideline.
The Vikings Must Resist the Brendan Sorsby Temptation
As one of the few teams heading into the 2026 season still without a starting quarterback, people have mentioned the Minnesota Vikings as a potential landing spot for Texas Tech’s Brendan Sorsby. The story has dominated college football headlines for the better part of the year, and now it finally seems that Sorsby is making the jump to the NFL, assuming the league signs off on it.
What the Anders Carlson Situation Says About Lucas Havrisik’s Chances To Be Green Bay’s Kicker
For two weeks last October, Green Bay Packers fans loved Lucas Havrisik. The former Rams kicker had stepped up, with regular starter Brandon McManus struggling as he attempted to play through injury. The Packers have moved on from McManus, and newly drafted rookie kicker Trey Smack is the presumed favorite to win the roster spot.
Josh Whyle Is Getting the Opportunity He’s Been Waiting For
The Green Bay Packers’ tight end group appeared unfamiliar during last week’s mandatory minicamp. Ascending star Tucker Kraft is still recovering from a torn ACL, keeping him with the rehab group. Luke Musgrave is presumably the next man up, but a new injury has sidelined him.
How Could ‘Hard Knocks’ Pass On the Vikings This Year?
Kevin O’Connell’s refusal to name a starting quarterback until at least training camp left fans feeling restless and wanting. Minnesota Vikings fans will endure another six weeks of rampant speculation, awkward interviews, and futile attempts at evaluating training camp completion percentages.
Kayla McBride Is Still An All-Star
In the Minnesota Lynx’s second loss of the season, Kayla McBride dropped 20 points, grabbed 7 rebounds, dished 1 assist, and finished with 4 steals and 1 block. McBride was everything for the Lynx in their 86-79 loss to the Dallas Wings. However, the wildest statistic is that the 33-year-old guard played 39 minutes and 56 seconds out of the 40 total minutes.
Should Green Bay Extend Keisean Nixon?
During an appearance on ESPN Milwaukee last week, Jason Wilde said he “cannot say that with any degree of high confidence” that Keisean Nixon will play the 2026 season under his current deal. Nixon previously told The Athletic that he intends to seek a raise this offseason. With no new agreement in place, the Green Bay Packers may soon have another contract situation to navigate.
Sam Darnold’s Departure Gives the Vikings A Clear Objective
If you want to trigger a Minnesota Vikings fan right now, suggest they’re not as good as the Green Bay Packers. But if you really want to evoke some feelings, mention Sam Darnold. The Vikings rode Darnold’s magical 2024 season to a 14-win campaign. But after leaving in free agency, he went on to win the Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks.
How Can the Twins Add Kaelen Culpepper To the 40-man Roster?
Kaelen Culpepper has done enough at Triple-A to earn a call-up to the majors. The problem is that he’s not on the team’s 40-man roster. That means the Minnesota Twins cannot call him up until they make a spot on the 40-man roster available. 40-man rosters throughout baseball are comprised of MLB players, guys on the 7-, 10-, or 15-day IL, and some minor leaguers.
The KAT Is Out Of the Bag For the Wolves
It will probably be difficult for Minnesota Timberwolves fans to look back at Karl-Anthony Towns watching a Wolves preseason game after they traded him. Or recall that he wore Timberwolves-colored shoes in his first game back in Minnesota, now that he’s an NBA champion.

Devonte Wyatt Still Has Questions To Answer
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has emphasized drafting and developing talent while maintaining financial flexibility to keep the team’s championship window open, and he has done a fairly admirable job at it.
The Wolves Must Learn From New York’s Clutch Gene
Jalen Brunson, with an NBA Championship hat covering his tightly braided hair and the NBA Finals MVP trophy — which would be his minutes later — sitting on a table in front of him, spoke with Inside the NBA’s Ernie Johnson after the New York Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs 94-90 in Game 5 Saturday to crown themselves champions.
What Does A Successful First Season Look Like For Cam Achord?
The Green Bay Packers better hope Cam Achord is finally the coach who can get their special teams back on track. It’s been a preposterously long time since Green Bay has fielded a reliable unit in that phase of the game, and the problem has manifested at the worst time, including the playoffs. Achord brings eight years of NFL experience to Green Bay.
How Is the Twins’ Offense Producing Comeback Wins?
The Minnesota Twins took two games in a hard-fought series with the St. Louis Cardinals over the weekend. Each team’s offense battled its way to victory, combining to score 46 runs over three games. The Cardinals outscored the Twins 21-20 over three games, but Minnesota still took the series.
What Is Green Bay’s Best OL Combination Entering the Summer?
Luke Butkus has plenty of work ahead of him when the Green Bay Packers report for training camp. Green Bay’s offensive line didn’t play at the level expected in pass protection last season, producing the team’s worst pass-blocking performance in the past decade. That is not a standard this offense can afford to repeat.
The Vikings’ QB Conundrum Is About the Ceiling Not the Floor
Sam Darnold’s Super Bowl win will hover over the Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback competition between Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy, and long into the season. It’s only natural. Minnesota Timberwolves fans just watched Karl-Anthony Towns win an NBA championship after the Wolves traded him to the New York Knicks.
The Twins Will Be Getting Reinforcements Off the IL Soon
As has been the case during every homestand this season, Minnesota Twins GM Jeremy Zoll met with reporters before Friday night’s impeccable 9-8 comeback win over the St. Louis Cardinals to provide injury updates on 40-man players and top prospects. Walker Jenkins was the biggest name he provided an update on.
Tiny Nick’s Gambling Picks 06/13
Locks NBA (1 Unit) NY Knicks @ San Antonio Spurs -2.5 First Quarter (+100; Odds via DraftKings): 7:30 PM CT on ABC Yes, it was the worst collapse in NBA Finals history, but at least it started well for San Antonio? I’m sure that’s little solace to the Spurs, but it’s a very consistent theme throughout this series and these playoffs, and I think they get out to another strong start tonight.
Marlon Jones Jr. May Be Green Bay’s Best Underdog Story
For Green Bay Packers rookie cornerback Marlon Jones Jr., reaching the NFL required overcoming far more than the usual football challenges. Following a breakout year at Eastern Washington in 2023, Jones entered the transfer portal and committed to Vanderbilt. However, his career suddenly took a frightening turn before he even made it to campus.
Are the Vikings Prepared For Rookie Growing Pains On Defense?
I feel like the last thing anyone wants to hear about is some sportswriter’s fantasy team, but let me start this by sharing a bit about my longtime league with friends from college. (I promise this comes around to the Minnesota Vikings in short order.) We’ve been doing this league for almost 10 years now, and about three years in we decided to spice things up by making it a dynasty league.
The Connection Between Karl-Anthony Towns, Minnesota, and Myself
As Minnesota Timberwolves fans watched the New York Knicks take a 3-1 lead over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals with an unbelievable 107-106 win, many felt a sense of pride for a certain player they have been connected to for over a decade. A player whom those fans had seen endure so much tragedy, so many deflating losses, and frequent damaging narratives.
The 2026 Packers Will Thrive On the Deep Ball
The saying goes that speed kills, and for the Green Bay Packers’ group of wide receivers, it’s hard to find a time when that has ever been more true. Matt LaFleur typically prefers wide receivers with bigger frames to help with run blocking, among other things.
Ola Kosu Is Earning Rotational Trust In Her Second Season
Garnering Cheryl Reeve’s trust is difficult. The soon-to-be most winningest coach in WNBA history doesn’t mess around when players make game-plan mistakes. Players who don’t fit into the offensive schematics and sets, miss key rotations and are positioned poorly defensively, or don’t play “Lynx Basketball” aren’t going to see much time on the court.
Will the Packers Go Heavy At Linebacker This Year?
Every summer, it seems one of the biggest topics of discussion is how many players the Green Bay Packers will carry at a certain position. Will the Packers carry seven wide receivers? Can they afford to carry a third quarterback on the 53-man roster? However, as the 2026 season approaches, linebacker appears poised to receive more attention than usual.
