After showing real promise in 2023, the Green Bay Packers’ receiving corps took a step back in 2024. The group finished with the third-most drops in the league and struggled to gain separation against man coverage, especially when Christian Watson wasn’t on the field. Romeo Doubs and Watson are entering the final year of their rookie contracts.

Jordan Love is entering his third year as the Green Bay Packers’ starting quarterback. Last season, he posted a 3.4% turnover-worthy play rate under pressure. Despite playing through knee and groin injuries, it was the second-best mark by a Packers quarterback in the past decade. However, it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows for Love. He occasionally struggled with accuracy and processing, and his big-time throw rate dropped from 5.6% in 2023 to 3.5% last season.

The Green Bay Packers had two defensive starters entering the 2025 offseason on track to hit unrestricted free agency in 2026. One of them was former first-round pick Devonte Wyatt. However, the team exercised his fifth-year option, securing his rights through the 2026 season and guaranteeing him $12.9 million for that year. The other one was Quay Walker.

The Green Bay Packers’ 2025 regular-season schedule is peculiar for several reasons. Matt LaFleur will open the season with a game at Lambeau Field for the first time since becoming Green Bay’s head coach in 2019. The last time the Packers opened the season at Lambeau was in 2018, when Aaron Rodgers suffered a knee injury in the first half. He went to the locker room, likely got a few pain-killing injections, and returned to lead a 24-23 comeback win over the Chicago Bears.

Romeo Doubs is one of six Green Bay Packers starters who could hit unrestricted free agency in 2026. His contract situation is especially intriguing. While Doubs has been a reliable contributor since entering the league in 2022, he has not elevated his game to a star level within Green Bay’s offense. Doubs has yet to surpass 675 receiving yards in a single season. In 2023, he led the team in targets, ranked second in receptions, and tied with Jayden Reed for the team lead in receiving touchdowns.

People talk about how good the Green Bay Packers have been at finding franchise quarterbacks. Still, another trend they’ve established that is rarely acknowledged, even if it’s well known: Their ability to strike gold with offensive linemen on Day 3 of the draft. Over the past 15 years, the Packers have drafted David Bakhtiari, Rasheed Walker, Zach Tom, Corey Linsley, and Josh Sitton on the third day.

Over the last decade, there has been plenty of chatter about the Green Bay Packers being soft. While we could debate whether that assessment is accurate, Robert Saleh said something that should be a wake-up call for the Packers. “The mindset to go 60 minutes,” Saleh told the New York Jets at halftime while coaching them in a Week 6 game against the Packers. “And to give them 60% more. And just keep giving them body blow after body blow after body blow.
