Green Bay Packers
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.
On Saturday afternoon, the Eagles acquired cornerback Jaire Alexander from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a swap of late-round draft picks. Philadelphia sends a 6th-round pick in 2026 to the Ravens, who are sending a 2027 7th-rounder back along with Alexander.
Alexander, of course, was a first-round pick by the Green Bay Packers in the 2018 NFL Draft and was a Packer up until the team released him this...

The Green Bay Packers announced on Saturday that they have signed linebacker Kristian Welch to the active roster. Welch has been on the Packers’ practice squad this season and hasn’t been activated for a single game. Previously, he played 14 games for the 2023 Packers before Green Bay released him at the cutdown deadline in 2024, leading to him seeing action in 15 games with the Denver Broncos and Baltimore Ravens last season.
Welch is up for linebacker Nick Niemann, who left last week’s game with a pectoral injury. Today, he was placed on the injured reserve, the corresponding roster...

Through eight weeks of the NFL season, it’s safe to say that the opposing offenses the Green Bay Packers have faced thus far were primarily worried about Micah Parsons’ impact on their ability to play offense. Through the first four weeks, opposing teams could game plan around Parsons’ rushing off the edge.
After the bye week, that changed, and as Jeff Hafley has evolved the defensive structure. Now, offenses must change how they game plan to limit Parsons’s impact on their offense. In Weeks 1-4, Parsons logged just four snaps in four games as an off-the-ball linebacker. In Weeks 5-8,...

We’ll get into the college football games this week a little later in this article, but first, I wanted to bring up something that will probably impact the Green Bay Packers this offseason. A LOT of college football head coaches are getting fired.
Already, there are eight openings in the top four conferences of college football. These jobs pay very well. For perspective, even Virginia Tech, a mid-level ACC team, [has approved $30 million per year...

Before last Sunday, Green Bay Packers fans were still a bit of a skeptical bunch. The Packers needed a late fourth-quarter comeback to defeat the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7, and memories of a loss to the Cleveland Browns and a tie against the Dallas Cowboys were still lingering.
With those reasons still in mind, Packers fans were slow to believe that the team had turned a corner, responding to last week’s SB Nation Reacts survey with just a 64% positive confidence rating that the team was headed in the right direction.
However, that all changed with last Sunday’s win...

The Green Bay Packers battled back in the second half of the Week 8 game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers after being down 16-7 at halftime. They held the Pittsburgh offense to nine second-half points while the Packers offense scored on each possession of the 2nd half. In the end, the defense held their former quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, and the Steelers offense to just 1-10 on third down conversions, allowing the defense to ultimately dictate the pace of the 2nd half.
They sacked Rodgers five times, including a strip sack and recovery by the defense, and broke up five more passes....
