"He said, 'I can see it this year coming, to where we're going to have a ton of sack fumbles and forced fumbles.' So I can't wait, man, because Coach is speaking it into existence." What also remains to be seen is the workload the Smiths carry in 2020. Each played nearly 1,000 snaps last...

Jeff from Greenville, SC What about a self-sanitizing ball? When thrown it shoots a mist out of the front of the ball and flies through it. Could stickum be added to aid catchability? The Inbox has officially gone off the rails… Fred from La Crosse, WI I'm sensitive to sounds, (e.g., my...

Staying in tune with the players' physical conditioning will be paramount, because in a normal training camp, there are extended breaks built in for veteran players. Usually they hold just a light practice or walk-through the day before a preseason game, play only a few if any snaps in the game...

General Manager Brian Gutekunst brought Wagner back home to help replace one of the team's longest-tenured players in right tackle Bryan Bulaga, who signed with the Los Angeles Chargers as an unrestricted free agent this offseason. Wagner admits he won't challenge David Bakhtiari for the title...

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact communities around the country and throughout Wisconsin, the Green Bay Packers announced today that Lambeau Field will not host fans at the first two home games this season. The Packers' third home game is on Nov. 1 against the Minnesota Vikings...

The Green Bay Packers have claimed FB John Lovett off of waivers from the Kansas City Chiefs. General Manager Brian Gutekunst announced the transaction Wednesday. Lovett (love-it), a 6-foot-2, 234-pound second-year player out of Princeton, was originally signed by the Chiefs on May 6, 2019...

Up front to pave the way, the Packers have everybody back except right tackle Bryan Bulaga, who signed as a free agent with the L.A. Chargers. LaFleur hasn't committed to a starting unit in 2020, saying there will be competition as the coaching staff finds the best five to work as a group...

Shawn from Kissimmee, FL Who would be the presumptive starter at TE at this point? Marcedes Lewis but it'll be fluid. I expect Jace Sternberger to play quite a bit as well early on. Corey from Henderson, NV Everybody is talking about how a team has to shift gears if they lose a player or...

At 10 a.m. on July 27, 1952, roughly 50 players, as well as coaches, boarded two buses at the Greyhound Bus Depot in downtown Green Bay and departed for Grand Rapids, Minn. They arrived at 10 p.m. on a Sunday night, completing the more than 400-mile trip in 12 hours. Over the next three weeks...

He's taking steps forward off the field as well, and not just as a new father. Adams was part of a collection of NFL stars who put together a virtual video message in the aftermath of the killing of George Floyd. The video was a plea by numerous high-profile players to get the league to support...

Steve from Kansas City, MO Do you think Rodgers would be better served by simply saying he will not answer any questions speculating about his future with GB? Favre made the mistake of saying honestly how he felt during his last few years with GB, and it created all the "will he or won't he...

LaFleur and his assistants devoted a lot of time, energy and resources during the pandemic to ready themselves for what's bound to be a rollercoaster of a 2020 NFL season. A lot of ideas were scrapped during that process, but the information gained from those discussions gives LaFleur...

Five of the Packers' eight road games, beginning with the opener at Minnesota, are scheduled to be played in domes, which are traditionally the toughest environments for visiting teams. Whether home-field advantage will even exist in any meaningful form is unknown. "It'll be strange to play...

Margeaux from Tallahassee, FL The Inbox certainly is far flung. Thoughtful contributors from Australia, Denmark and the UK on Monday make me thrilled to be a Packer Backer! And makes me yearn to travel again. Mark from Appleton, WI Since there will be no fans allowed at the practice...

The position likely does have a lot to do with it. Only seven defensive tackles were included on this year's "Top 100." Although Donald came at No. 3 overall, you'd have to go all the way to No. 52 to find the next defensive tackle (Kansas City's Chris Jones). At the same time, the 2019 season...

LaFleur reiterated those thoughts, emphasizing there's a lot on the players, as well as anyone associated with the team who comes in contact with the players, to be following safety protocols at all times. "If we're going to have football played this year, it's going to take a lot of...

Michael from Fort Wayne, IN Do you see any of the NFL COVID-19 protocols becoming permanent, such as no preseason games? Not that one, but if the injuries in training camp are kept to a minimum, I could see the players pushing for a more extended ramp-up to full contact again. Changes to the...
