"The Packers organization was shocked to see the video that showed police shooting Jacob Blake multiple times in the back. We are hopeful Jacob makes a full recovery, and our thoughts are with his family. "While we understand a full investigation of this terrible incident will take place, we...

Chase from Ft. Wood, MO I wonder how Mike Smith feels about sacks being used as the benchmark for a good pass rusher...? That was an epic rant, but done in a measured and respectful tone I thought. Not that Coach Smith was intentionally being pre-emptive with the media, but he intuitively...

GREEN BAY – The Packers were back Sunday, in full pads again, on Ray Nitschke Field for their seventh practice of training camp. Here are five things learned from the workout: 1. Aaron Rodgers was at it again in the two-minute drill. It's hard to find a quarterback who executes better in...

GREEN BAY – There will come a time when Marcedes Lewis no longer boards a plane every July to travel to whichever NFL city he'll call home for the rest of the calendar year. At some point, the Pro Bowl tight end's football career will give way to his interest in fashion, culture and martial...

Michael from Chanhassen, MN Wow! Thanks for the detailed information! Holy buckets, all that being done before the play clock hits zero, amazing. I had to chuckle to myself when Spoff asked me to proof that response to make sure it was comprehendible for readers. I don't think I could've...

3. The Packers like what they see in Kamal Martin. The Packers' 2020 rookie class has made its presence felt in first week of training camp, whether it's second-day draftees such as AJ Dillon and Josiah Deguara or even third-day prospects Vernon Scott and Martin. On Friday, inside...

Whatever role he settles into this year, Greene remains confident he can be reliable and impactful. After he played mostly on special teams as a rookie, acquitting himself well in full-time duty at Soldier Field last September was a significant, if unfortunately brief, step forward. "I feel...

On Mason Crosby and the FG operation: Talking to those guys, they were able to train consistently through in the spring and build through the summer to where they're peaking now. It's been a consistent build up for him through the summer. He's a great vet, knows what he needs to do, and he's...

Dennis from Parrish, FL I have a Duke Bobber in my tackle box, NO WAY that's a real name? Oh, it's real, and it's spectacular. David from Prior Lake, MN II, can we talk numbers quick? Outside of 1929-31 when they won their first three titles, the Packers seem to have retired a number or...

Even for a rookie like quarterback Jordan Love, whose roster spot is secure, the preseason would have been a helpful measuring stick to gauge the progress of the Packers' first-round pick. Or for Tim Boyle, the Packers' primary backup QB in 2019 who threw for six touchdowns last preseason...

Head Coach Matt LaFleur excused Aaron Rodgers and the rest of the veterans to the locker room after 1 hour and 54 minutes to allow Love and third-year backup Tim Boyle to run one more team period. Love then closed practice with a deep ball to Malik Taylor down the sideline, earning a...

4. WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling put together a strong, and nearly flawless, showing. After hauling in a deep ball in the first practice of camp last Saturday, Valdes-Scantling had been rather quiet. Then Thursday he caught several passes from Rodgers in 11-on-11 on various routes – in and out...

Jeff from Brooklyn, WI The talk is all about AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones being Nos. 1-2, but what about Jamaal Williams and Tyler Ervin? Both are solid players. Williams actually was a rock when Jones was injured and Ervin boosted the kick return big time after he was acquired. What are your...

A search of the Press-Gazette editions over the first six-and-a-half months of 1961 also failed to turn up any mention of the Packers selecting or designing a logo. No mention of it could be found in the Packers' board of directors and executive committee meeting minutes in 1961, either. But...

Eric from Erie, PA I just want to say one thing. If Alex Smith plays just one down this season he should automatically be voted NFL comeback player of the year. I love Aaron Rodgers and it's remarkable the tale of those two QBs, but what Alex Smith is coming back from is unheard of and is...
