Packers Preview: What to expect from a MarShawn Lloyd running game?
The Green Bay Packers’ running game is going to be a bit of a mystery box going into the 2026 regular season. Not only is starting running back Josh Jacobs on the commissioner exempt list, but the players who will backfill Jacobs’ carries have never been significant ball-carriers at the NFL level, and the Packers’ […]
Packers can be optimistic about forcing turnovers in 2026
A little over a year ago, I wrote about the Packers’ defense and its plans for 2025. Heading into the second year of the Jeff Hafley era, the Packers wanted to force even more turnovers than they had in 2024, which I argued was an admirable but misguided plan. “Get more turnovers” isn’t really a […]
The Packers’ 2026 schedule is mostly friendly for out-of-market fans across the US
Being a fan of one of the NFL’s biggest fan bases has its perks. For Green Bay Packers fans living in the United States but outside of the team’s home television markets, nationally televised games are a welcome sight. Fans can certainly debate the time slot that they prefer based on their own circumstances, but […]
Green Bay Packers News: 1923 throwback uniforms return in December
You didn’t think the Green Bay Packers would have just a single game in alternate uniforms this season, did you? Hopefully not, because Thursday afternoon brought the news that the team will once again be bringing out their “1923 Classic” threads later this season. This alternate uniform, which debuted last season in a home game […]
The Madden Curse is real and it’s coming for the Bears
I live in suburban Chicago Illinois, which has several benefits. One of the big benefits is that I get to hear overconfident Bears fans on the radio, which I enjoy more than hearing overconfident Green Bay Packers fans on the radio. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not at all against proclaiming the superiority of your […]
Green Bay Packers News: MarShawn Lloyd is ready for a big role
I’m excited for MarShawn Lloyd. I’m worried for MarShawn Lloyd. In some ways his offseason reminded me of a low-level viral tweet from a while back: he accidentally became important at work, and it might be ruining his life. I don’t think anybody anticipated the Packers would go into Week 1 with Lloyd as the […]
Packers Roster: Which units improved their standing in training camp?
Here’s a fun one: Which of the Green Bay Packers’ units improved (or declined) their standing on the team during training camp? Before training camp, we had you all vote on how you would grade the Packers’ positional groups with an A to F scale, then we calculated the results with a GPA ranking. Here’s […]
Packers sign Scott Daly to practice squad as long snapper insurance
Wednesday has brought news of another turn in the Green Bay Packers’ long snapping situation. The Packers, who are heading into the regular season with Matt Orzech as the one long snapper on the 53-man roster, have added another player at the position to ensure that they have some cover if Orzech is not ready […]
Packers Practice Squad Tracker 2026: Follow all the reports & signings
A 53-man roster isn’t the only thing that NFL teams need to decide on this week. The league’s cutdown deadline from 90 to 53 will come and go on Sunday afternoon, and on Monday it will be time for teams to begin assembling the other major piece of their rosters: the practice squad. Over the […]
Lambeau Field to host Wisconsin hockey doubleheader in February
The Green Bay Packers have been clear that they intend to find uses for Lambeau Field besides the team’s regularly scheduled home games, and for the first time since the team’s 2026 Shareholders’ Meeting in July, the legendary stadium has added a new event to its calendar. On Wednesday, the Packers announced that Lambeau will […]
Green Bay Packers News: Newcomers making an impression
Cutdown weekend is always a time of change and transition. For a few new members of the Green Bay Packers, that was especially true. Not only did the Packers trim their roster from 90 to the required 53, but they traded for two new players in the process and added a third via free agency. […]
That Sums It Up: One sentence about each projected Packers starter
We are a week and some change away from the Green Bay Packers’ first game of the 2026 season, and now that roster cutdowns are complete, we finally know what we’re working with as we approach opening day. We’re going to be short and sweet this week, and give you one sentence about each of […]
Packers Discussion: What does a gameday roster look like for Green Bay?
A lot of focus has been put on the Green Bay Packers’ 53-man roster recently, and I don’t blame people for looking at it — since we just had roster cutdowns. To me, though, there are really three different versions of the roster: Today, I want to talk about the 48-man game-day roster. A lot […]
Packers Injuries: Updates on IR’d players and Micah Parsons
The Green Bay Packers’ brass spoke to the media on Tuesday for the first time since roster cuts. The deadline also came with some injury news, as both receiver Savion Williams and edge rusher Collin Oliver were placed on the injured reserve, with a return designation, to make room for other players to be retained […]
Packers Film Review: TE Mark Redman
On August 30th, the Green Bay Packers traded a 2028 7th-round pick to the Los Angeles Rams for tight end Mark Redman. Given that the Rams had eight tight ends at the start of the month, it’s no surprise they’d be open to getting rid of one of them. (As currently stands, the Rams have […]
Green Bay Packers News: It’s time for Jordan Love to ascend
Jordan Love is heading into his fourth season as the Packers’ starting quarterback, but in some ways, this feels like the first season where he’ll be asked to be the face of the franchise. 2023 was very much a trial period. He had to prove he could do the job, and ultimately he did. The […]
Packers will sign Kedon Slovis to practice squad as 3rd quarterback
After trading Kyle McCord away ahead of Sunday’s roster cut deadline, the Green Bay Packers have decided on which player will be their third quarterback to start the 2026 season. That player is the one who got out-dueled by McCord in last Friday’s preseason finale: former Cardinals quarterback Kedon Slovis. General manager Brian Gutekunst said […]
Get the best of Acme Packing Company on the new SB Nation app
It’s a big day for Acme Packing Company. Today, the SB Nation app is live, and it’s the best way to follow the Packers. You can download it by searching SB Nation for iOS or Android. A year ago, we made some big changes to our community, including offering fewer ads and the addition of […]
Who will be the Packers’ third quarterback?
The Green Bay Packers don’t have a third quarterback, and that’s weird. Half of the NFL kept three players at the position (four of them kept four, if you can believe it) at the cutdown deadline, when rosters shrank from 91 to 53 on Sunday. So for the Packers to have only rostered two players […]
NFL Cutdowns: Former Packers pre-draft visitors released on Sunday
I’ll keep this one short: The Green Bay Packers target their pre-draft visitors at a high clip, whether it’s the draft, as initial undrafted free agents or further down the line. For example, last cutdown cycle the team traded a pick for offensive linemen Darian Kinnard and picked up tight end Josh Whyle to the […]
Packers’ Nazir Stackhouse claimed by Titans
Only one of the Green Bay Packers’ players was claimed on waivers on Monday, as Nazir Stackhouse will now be a Tennessee Titan moving forward. The defensive lineman was signed to a significant UDFA contract in 2025, but was passed on the depth chart in 2026 by both Jonathan Ford and Anthony Campbell, two out-of-nowhere […]
Packers trade for RB Kaleb Johnson at cutdown deadline
The Green Bay Packers have added depth to their running back room on Sunday, as they’ve traded for former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson. Johnson, a 23-year-old, was a third-round pick for the Steelers coming out of Iowa last season. Johnson ended up buried on Pittsburgh’s dept chart, though, following the team’s signings of […]
Packers Film Room, Preseason Week 3: Sturdivant goes for 6
The final preseason game is in the books, so I’m working to get into regular season shape by doing what I love doing the most: breaking down plays. It’s never quite as interesting in the preseason because the focus of the offense isn’t on sequencing in the same way we see in the regular season. […]
Packers fans’ reaction to new Rivalries uniforms is decidedly ‘meh’
It has been an eventful seven days for the Green Bay Packers. Looking back at the chaos of the last few days — between the final preseason game and the roster cut deadline on Sunday — it feels a bit bizarre to remember that the Packers released a new slate of alternate uniforms just six […]
Where is the weirdest or most remote place you’ve watched a Packers game?
If you’re a Green Bay Packers fan, you’re a die-hard. That pretty much comes with the territory. As a result, you probably will go to just about any length to watch your team play. I know I certainly have. Over the years, I’ve watched Packers games in some far-flung places. From following the 2021 Divisional […]
