Despite Distractions, Aaron Rodgers a Strong Start in Week 6

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) has had a turbulent week leading up to a Monday night game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Additionally, Rodgers is still dealing with a knee injury […]

Packers Need Jimmy Graham To Improve

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (knee) missed practice on Thursday with his knee injury.

Expect him to play plenty of snaps this week before the Packers have a […]

Geronimo Allison Could Return From Injury In Week 6

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison (hamstring) was in practice Thursday after missing Week 5 with a concussion and hamstring injury. This is an injury that can be re-aggravated very easily. Keep a watchful eye on his status. Should he play on Monday he's a great option to start. With Randall Cobb (hamstring) also […]

Randall Cobb Looking To Come Back Strong

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb (hamstring) was back at practice on Thursday, which is a good sign he might play Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers.

Mason Crosby Looking To Bounce Back In Week 6

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby had a rough Week 5 against the Detroit Lions. The Packers have stuck by their veteran kicker and the team has seemingly rallied around him.

Dynasty Outlook - Josh Gordon

Dynasty football is a game that many owners, including myself, treat like the stock market. You buy low, you sell high, and sometimes you're just better off holding onto a player. Throughout the years, there have been many players whose value rises and falls in drastic measures at times. Perhaps one of the most polarizing […]

Jaire Alexander Could Return In Week 6

Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said first-round cornerback Jaire Alexander (groin) could return in Week 6 against the 49ers after sitting out in Week 5.

Packers Sticking With Mason Crosby

The Green Bay Packers don't appear to be exploring other kicking options after kicker Mason Crosby missed four field goals and an extra point in the Week 5 loss to the Lions. "He's got to make those kicks. He's a proven highly successful kicker, and I believe in him but he's got to make those […]

Aaron Jones Hindered By Committee Backfield

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones has a lot of potential, but his workload remains limited while sharing touches with Jamaal Williams and Ty Montgomery. "He's dynamic with the ball in his hands. But there's more to the position than just running the football. We have diversity in our attack with three guys. All […]

Jimmy Graham Solid Despite Missed Opportunities

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham didn't look that great in Week 5 against the Detroit Lions despite having 76 receiving yards. The problem for Graham was that he only caught six of his 11 targets. He made some nice plays, but Aaron Rodgers needs him to catch more than that. Graham also had […]

Davante Adams Has A Monster Performance

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams had a huge week against the Detroit Lions. Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison were both inactive for Week 5, so Adams was the primary target as usual, but with more emphasis on getting the ball to him.
