GREEN BAY – Head Coach Matt LaFleur has hired Jerry Gray to be the Packers' new defensive backs coach. Gray replaces Jason Simmons, who left Green Bay to join the defensive staff with the Carolina Panthers. Gray comes to the Packers from the NFC North rival Vikings, where he spent the past...

Corey from Bethlehem, PA As a Packers fan and an avid Insiders reader, I find myself emotionally attached and invested to almost every player on the roster. The fact that there's a chance Blake Martinez as well as a few others won't be back hurts, but I understand. How do you deal considering...

For him personally, he called it "very rewarding" to start all 16 regular-season games for just the second time in his career, and to make the transition to a new offense successfully as the longest-tenured lineman on the team. Having gone through two ACL surgeries on his knees in his career...

Thanks to the efforts and support of Packers players, fans and employees throughout the holiday season, $97,127 was donated to the Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign. The amount is the result of donations received during Packers Give Back Day on Dec. 17, and the Packers players autograph...

Matt from Manhattan, KS For his first two drafts, Gute had the "luxury" of a relatively high spot in each draft round, and for the most part I'd say he delivered with getting some great players. Now that he's going to be a good 10-15 spots back in the draft for each of the non-traded picks...

Green Bay had two other rookies – safety Darnell Savage and left guard Elgton Jenkins – named to the Pro Football Writers of America's All-Rookie Team earlier this month. Savage, the Packers' other first-round selection, displayed the speed and ranginess in 14 starts that made him one of the...

Craig from Sheboygan, WI Darnell Savage rarely had his name called this year. Clearly needs to improve tackling. But with his speed, size and youth do you feel he will have a more impactful year next year? Absolutely. His arrow is pointing up. Rookies don't often get all that playing time...

"It was a tribute to Kobe, him and his family," Smith told Salters. "We came in on third down (and said), 'Man this is what we're gonna do. We're gonna do two steps and then we gonna do the fadeaway for him.' For everybody to participate as a team, I just hope that touched a lot of people in a...

Matt from Manhattan, KS I've had a handful of questions kicking around for a month that I figured would be better to hold for the offseason. Sadly, that means they're good to use now. Outside of Rodgers, which player currently on the roster has the best chance of making the Hall of Fame if...

Eric from Stramproy, Netherlands So Mike, "optimism with expectations" next season? Ha. I'll have to give it some thought. I think it's fair to expect this team to be a contender next year, but in this crazy league I don't like going beyond that. Wayne from Prescott Valley, AZ What will...

GREEN BAY – The offseason already is well underway for General Manager Brian Gutekunst. Upon returning from scouting the Senior Bowl practices in Mobile, Ala., the Packers GM took both a look back and look forward Friday at the team in a season-ending press conference. The crux of his...

LaFleur appreciates how "open-minded" Rodgers was with the new offense. The Packers shifted from a spread-oriented shotgun style to more traditional concepts that moved the 15-year veteran back under center on a more frequent basis. The offense experienced ups and downs over the course of a...

Ralph from Mönchengladbach, Germany Could you comment (statistics-wise plus your "expert gut feeling") on the seasons of JK Scott and Mason Crosby, perhaps compared to last year? I thought Mason had a good season and if you ignore that one game last season was good, too. JK's last season...

The Green Bay Packers signed TE Evan Baylis, T Cody Conway, RB Damarea Crockett (DUH-marr-ee-aye), CB Kabion Ento (kay-be-on N-toe), TE James Looney, LB Randy Ramsey, WR Darrius Shepherd, WR Malik Taylor, QB Manny Wilkins and LB Tim Williams. The transactions were announced Tuesday by General...

Jess from Little Chute, WI I see a lot of negativity and pessimism from people, it's kind of disheartening. I think these are the same people thinking the team wouldn't win more than eight games this season. All of a sudden the team is in the playoffs and that still isn't good enough? Come on...

Defensively, an impressive year with regard to pressuring quarterbacks and turning the ball over was undone by an inability to stop the run in the NFC Championship Game in San Francisco. LaFleur said he's still working through all the post-mortem debriefing with his assistant coaches this...
