Injuries to Jordan Love have been distressingly common since he took over as the Packers’ starting quarterback.

Love made it through all of 2023 without issue, but opened 2024 with a knee injury in Week 1 that affected most of his season. He’s been banged up a couple of times in 2025 as well, missing time against the Giants and Bears for different but still significant injuries, though he returned in the Giants game.

But as much time as Love has missed, the Packers have hardly missed a beat because of super backup Malik Willis. Whenever the Packers have needed...

Throughout the 2025 NFL season, SB Nation’s Doug Farrar writes about the game’s Secret Superstars — those players whose performances might slip under the radar for whatever reasons. In this installment, we focus on Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Malik Willis, who has transformed himself from NFL bust to possible starting quarterback, based on what he’s shown in two seasons under Matt LaFleur’s tutelage.

The thing about quarterbacks is that when you need one, you’re willing to do just about anything to get one.

This is why quarterbacks are frequently (and sometimes drastically) overvalued in both the draft, and when...

The Green Bay Packers had a walkthrough practice on Tuesday and are expected to have a walkthrough practice on Thursday, meaning that the team’s injury reports on those days will be estimations. Still, on Tuesday, both Jordan Love and Malik Willis, the team’s injured quarterbacks, were able to throw the ball around and were estimated to be limited participants if the practice were padded.

Love went down with a concussion in the first half of the Packers’ loss to the Chicago Bears this week, while Malik Willis injured his throwing shoulder and finished out the game. After practice today, Willis...

NFL draft prospects have until January 14th to declare for the 2026 draft, but some of these players are already making their decisions clear.

From 2019 to 2021, before the extra eligibility for Covid seasons, NIL payments and the transfer portal really started to kick in, the league averaged 126 underclassmen declarations per class. From 2023 t0 2025, though, that number dropped to just an average of 70, 56 fewer underclassmen per class and a 44 percent overall drop in underclassmen declaring.

With direct payments from schools to players now allowed, plus the NFL still having a rookie wage scale,...

Happy Festivus, Green Bay Packers fans!

The Packers are fighting for a spot in the NFL playoffs this holiday season after losing to the Chicago Bears on Saturday in a devastating game that saw Packers QB Jordan Love exit early with a concussion. The Packers have lost 2 straight games in which they had full control. But then injuries piled up, mistakes were made, and wins slipped through their fingers. The emotional rollercoaster of the last few weeks seems like the perfect opportunity to celebrate the best tradition of Festivus: the Airing of Grievances.

For those unfamiliar, Festivus is a...

Did you know Jordan Love is the same age as Aaron Rodgers, Brett Favre, and Bart Starr when they won their first championships?

If you didn’t, you probably haven’t watched a Packers game this year, because that and other parallels to 2010 (and 1996 and 1961) have been flogged to no end. And maybe they’re true and real, but they don’t count for much until the Packers actually win something.

But I’d like there to be something to those comparisons. I’d like it to be true that the Packers are very similar to their 2010 championship team, or any of...

As we all know, Green Bay Packers Jordan Love left the game this past weekend with a concussion, and Malik Willis sustained an injury late in the same game. I know those bits of information, and then I saw 44-year-old, just-off-the-couch Philip Rivers go for 277 yards and 2 TDs on Monday Night Football, so my brain started wondering. If Matt LaFleur didn’t have a healthy QB he liked going into this weekend, who would he call?

So I went combing through Matt LaFleur’s stops as a coach to find a candidate. (Quick note: when I say “LaFleur coached this...

The Green Bay Packers will need to do at least a little bit of reshuffling before they get into the postseason. Most importantly, they only have one healthy tight end on the roster right now, Luke Musgrave, while Matt LaFleur’s teams generally like to roster three or four at the position, because of how many multiple-tight-end sets that they play.

Below is your roster breakdown:

• QB-2: Jordan Love and Malik Willis
• RB-3: Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks
• WR-7: Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Matthew Golden, Bo Melton and Savion Williams
• TE-2:...

The San Francisco 49ers take on the Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night Football this week, a game that will impact the Green Bay Packers in the playoff race, depending on what you are rooting for. As of now, the Packers have a 97 percent chance to make the postseason, with the only path of Green Bay falling short of the playoffs being the team losing out while the Detroit Lions win out.

Here’s how the Packers’ chances at different seeding spots change with a 49ers or Colts win, according to the New York Times’ playoff simulator.

• #2 seed: 6...

The Green Bay Packers made a swap on their 53-man roster on Monday. The team placed tight end John FitzPatrick on the injured reserve, following his Achilles tear, and has activated defensive end Collin Oliver from the physically unable to perform list. Oliver missed all of camp with a hamstring injury, but had his 21-day practice window open up on December 1st. Today was the deadline to activate him, or the rookie fifth-round pick would have reverted to the injured reserve for the remainder of the season.

With the FitzPatrick injury, the Packers only have one healthy tight end on...

As we do every week in this space, we take a look at the Packers passing game from the previous game. I like to start these off by looking at Jordan Love’s passing chart from NFL Next Gen, but this week we get Malik Willis’ passing chart, because that’s what they had.

That is what I expect from a Malik Willis passing chart. Willis was in the game for 46 snaps, tallying 11 passing attempts and 10 rushing attempts. When he was throwing, it was quick game or calculated pushes of the ball downfield. There were certainly things that were...

NBC surely expected a great quarterback matchup when they decided to put next Saturday’s matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday night for a broadcast on Peacock. After all, Jordan Love vs. Lamar Jackson is a great one on paper, especially with both teams in the playoff hunt.

Now there are major questions about both starting quarterbacks’ availability for the week 17 game. Love suffered a concussion agains the Bears last Saturday whole Jackson injured his back on Sunday Night Football, which could lead to backups starting for both teams.

At least these are two...
