Packers 2025-26 Season Thread

Hobbs minor surgery to clean up something? A torn meniscus.
 
Sorry Guys. But I don't see these things as a big deal. Better to take care of things before the season. And maybe that's not the point. The point is that they are injured. I get that. I just don't agree. Why not take a chance? As long as they are good players and the injuries are not serious.

This is all fair. I think with Hobbs' injury history, you hope for the best but have to assume he misses ~3 games give or take a year, that's just who he's been. But just read that again, because it means you know your preferred starter is going to miss time, which puts emphasis on depth. Ideally you need 3 good CBs, but really now you need 4. Speaking only for myself, I'm just frustrated with the approach to CB over the last couple years, it's left us with a group that needs to be hidden in the game plan. Gute started off his tenure investing pretty highly in the position but after a couple flops we have just been trying to get by with scraps and castaways, and it's frustrating to see other teams invest at those positions and see it pay off big time for them. I like the demeanor of these guys and they've done OK in camp drills but you can just see that they're going to get exposed and burned sooner than later. It's tough to make a living as a defense if you can't afford for a single one of your corners to get isolated on a crossing route one single time.
 
maybe I missed it on here, but I see the Packers cut a couple of UFDA's for "lack of professionalism"? That pretty much ended any chance they will ever have in playing Pro football.

Johnathan Baldwin and Brant Banks per this report. My wife saw it first. but they both show up as still being on the team, per the Packers website - so maybe it's not true (but we read it on the internet!!!!!).

It’s AI slop. I did a search for “release two rookies for unprofessional conduct”, there are multiple identical articles just swapping out the teams. IMG_0311.jpeg

I should have known. My wife gets articles popping up on her Packers feeds with information that I hadn't seen before, which quite often is fake news. It's just to get clicks to their site.
