Rodgers ruled out for Sunday

Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game against New England. Matt Flynn will start his first ever NFL game, and should be a little bit more prepared to play this week after taking all the first-team reps in practice. Still, he makes every Packer skill player outside of [...]

Starks leads Packers’ backfield in victory over SF

Green Bay Packers RB James Starks ran for 73 yards on 18 carries in the Packers win over San Francisco on Sunday. Starks was active due to Dmitri Nance’s concussion, and he certainly seized the opportunity, despite being inactive all season. Running back is probably the easiest position for a rookie to learn, so it’s [...]

Packers extend CB Williams

The Green Bay Packers have signed CB Tramon Williams to a four-year $41.25 million extension through the 2014 season. Williams has played at an All-Pro level this season as a cover corner opposite Charles Woodson. With Darrelle Revis and Nnamdi Asomugha banged up this season, it wouldn’t be hard to argue Williams has been a [...]

Packers place starting RT Tauscher on I.R.

The Green Bay Packers have placed RT Mark Tauscher (shoulder) on injured reserve, ending his season. The extent of Tauscher’s shoulder injury still hasn’t been disclosed, as it was even speculated he was a healthy scratch recently.

Packers activate RB James Starks from PUP

The Green Bay Packers have activated RB James Starks (hamstring) from the Physically Unable to Perform list. Starks will not see much action early on, as he is likely nowhere near game shape after missing nearly six months with a severe hamstring injury. It’s possible, although unlikely, he’ll carve out a role before the end [...]

The Green Bay Packers have released CB Al Harris. Harris suffered a major knee injury toward the end of the ’09 season that could ultimately be the end of the line for one of the best defensive backs in team history. Tramon Williams has played at a Pro-Bowl level this season as Harris’ replacement, although [...]

Driver to miss Week 9 against Dallas

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver (quad) stated on radio station 620 AM WTMJ in Milwaukee that he will not play this week against Dallas. Driver has gone consecutive weeks without recording a catch, so the quad is obviously limiting him on the field. Look for James Jones and Jordy Nelson to step up in [...]

Driver aggrevates quad injury in Packers’ win

Green Bay Packers WR Donald Driver left Sunday’s game against the Jets after re-injuring his quad and did not return. Driver was held without a catch for the second consecutive week after going 133 straight games with at least one reception. Clearly not 100%, Driver looked slow before leaving with the injury. Don’t expect him [...]

Harris, Bigby still not ready for Packers

Green Bay Packers CB Al Harris (knee) and SS Atari Bigby (ankle) will not be activated off the PUP list for Week 8. Both players were expected to return in Week 7, so the fact they are still not ready is concerning. We’ll track their progress during practice next week.
