Photo by Perry Knotts/ Green Bay has now re-signed three of their cornerbacks via free agency with the addition of Robert Rochell. Earlier this offseason, the Green Bay Packers had the opportunity to tender cornerback Robert Rochell with a “first right of refusal” tag that would have made the restricted free agent $2.985 million and never let the defensive back hit unrestricted free agency. Instead, the Packers elected to not place that tender on Rochell and have now re-signed the cornerback, per ESPN’s Rob Demovsky. Assuming that the Packers are acting rationally...

Photo by Jim McIsaac/ Carolina will pay Nijman an adjustable contract that will nearly double his take home money if he’s able to reach incentives. On Tuesday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Carolina Panthers had signed former Green Bay Packers tackle Yosh NIjman via free agency. Nijman, who joined the Packers as an undrafted free agent in 2019, had played 67 games for the team, including 22 starts — mostly during the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Going into last offseason, with uncertainty at left tackle due to David Bakhtiari’s injury history, most...

Photo by Stacy Revere/ The market is already drying up, particularly at linebacker, where the Packers have yet to make any notable additions. Get ready for a lot of Quay Walker and Isaiah McDuffie this fall. The Green Bay Packers could do far worse than these two players as their top two linebackers in 2024, but they are the only players with any substantial experience in the team’s linebacker room at present. Considering that position is one that will need a bigger group of bodies in Jeff Hafley’s defense than in the previous 3-4 scheme, it’s at least somewhat...

Dan Powers-USA TODAY Sports “Listen if I would’ve listened to half the stuff they were telling me I would’ve NEVER went all pro,” tweeted the linebacker on Sunday. Former Green Bay Packers linebacker De’Vondre Campbell has never been shy on social media. In December, he let the world know that he was no longer going to play through injuries for the Packers, stating, “When s*** goes wrong they always use it against you.” Earlier this week, after being released by the team, he posted on his Instagram page that he was “badly misused” by the franchise. On...

You can now buy Josh Jacobs and Xavier McKinney jerseys from the Green Bay Packers’ Pro Shop, as the team has announced their free agent signings’ new numbers. Jacobs will be wearing #8 while McKinney will sport #29. Jacobs landed #8 via 2023 fifth-round quarterback Sean Clifford, who will now wear #6. Clifford wore #14 in college and high school, so it doesn’t appear that he had much of an emotional connection to #8. Meanwhile,...

Photo by Rob Carr/ “Someone is about to get a great football player that’s been badly misused,” said Campbell on social media. Based on his recent activity on social media, it appears that former Green Bay Packers linebacker De’Vondre Campbell is holding some animosity toward the organization after being released from his five-year, $50 million contract this offseason. Earlier this week, he posted, “Someone is about to get a great football player that’s been badly misused. O well let’s get it though,” to his Instagram page. via...

Photo by Ryan Kang/ “I was telling people when we was scouting from when we was playing [the Packers] last year, I seen [Love] make some throws. I’m like, yeah, a lot of people can’t do ‘em.” Back in 2021, after a standoff with the Green Bay Packers, then-Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers told the press, “Green Bay isn’t a huge vacation destination, people are coming here to play with me.” Well, now free agents are citing current Packers quarterback Jordan Love as a major reason for signing with the team. In his first press availability since being...

Photo by David Berding/ Green Bay’s division rival now owns the pick two slots ahead of the Packers’ top selection in next month’s draft. The Minnesota Vikings made a trade on Friday morning that is being seen by many as a precursor to a possible trade-up for a quarterback in April’s NFL draft. In exchange for their 2024 second-round pick, 2025 second-round pick and the Las Vegas Raiders’ sixth-round pick, the Vikings received the Cleveland Browns’ first-round pick (23rd overall) and the Denver Broncos’ seventh-round pick via the Houston Texans. The 23rd...

Photo by Mitchell Layton/ For the second time this offseason, a safety that Green Bay was linked to has signed elsewhere. Last week, ESPN’s Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler reported that the Green Bay Packers were “considered a threat in the safety market,” noting that the team had shown interest in both Xavier McKinney and Kamren Curl. They were spot on with the McKinney angle, as the Packers agreed to terms with the former New York Giants on a four-year, $67 million contract on the first day of the “legal tampering period.” McKinney is expected to play free...

Photo by Todd Kirkland/ If Green Bay’s attendance is any sign, the Packers are looking at the tackle and safety market in the draft. While everyone is rightfully focused on free agency, there is another process going on in NFL front offices right now: pro days. A team’s attendance at these events can signify interest in a certain player or a position group that they’re in the market for. With that in mind, let’s take a look at where the Green Bay Packers’ scouting staff has reportedly visited in the first week or so of the pro day process, including...

Photo by Jared C. Tilton/ Dillon will rejoin Green Bay for 2024 on a one-year deal, but much of the money he’s paid will not count against the cap. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Green Bay Packers are expected to re-sign running back AJ Dillon, assuming that he passes a physical. This is somewhat of a surprise, as it was reported on Wednesday that the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants and Indianapolis Colts were interested in signing the former second-round pick in free agency. With Aaron Jones out of the picture following his release, Dillon is now...

Photo by Kara Durrette/ The Packers are starting to schedule their official visitors in the ramp-up to Draft Day in April. The 2024 NFL Draft is exactly six weeks away, and the Green Bay Packers have begun setting up official visits for draft prospects. Green Bay has historically drafted many of the players whom they bring in for the formal “Top-30” visits, so tracking these prospects is a worthwhile exercise. Last year, the Packers drafted four of the players who they brought in on these visits and acquired two more, either as undrafted free agents after the draft...

Photo by Stacy Revere/ With the releases of three veterans, the Packers now have just one player older than 28 on the roster. At the start of the week, the Green Bay Packers had four players aged 29 or older on their roster. As of Thursday morning, that number is down to just one. Preston Smith, while not the longest-tenured current Packer, is the oldest player on the roster at 31 years old. But gone are three of the other four players referenced above, as the Packers moved on from David Bakhtiari, De’Vondre Campbell, and Aaron Jones in recent days. Each of those...

Photo by Nick Wosika/Icon Sportswire via Neither running back Patrick Taylor nor cornerback Robert Rochell were hit with a tender on Wednesday. The deadline has come and gone for NFL teams to place tenders on their restricted free agents, players who were in contract seasons in 2023 but had accrued only three seasons in the league — rather than the typical four years that usually accompany rookie contracts. League-wide, only seven of these players were tendered this year, none of which were Green Bay Packers. Only two Packers players qualified to be restricted free...
