Fans have been itching to see whether the Green Bay Packers can continue where they left off last season or not. As it stands, the latest video from the team will hype people up for the upcoming campaign.
Last season marked a new era for the Packers, as they traded superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets. This was the first time since 2004 that Rodgers was not on the roster. Instead, 2020 first-round pick Jordan Love took over as the starting QB.
The Packers struggled early in the season, going 3-6 in the first half. However, they turned things around in the second half, finishing 9-8 and earning the seventh and final NFC playoff spot. In the Wild Card round, the young Packers squad pulled off an impressive 48-32 upset over the two-seed Dallas Cowboys, their first playoff win without Rodgers or Brett Favre since the 1980s.
Unfortunately, the Packers’ season came to an end in the Divisional round, with a narrow 24-21 loss to the eventual NFC champion San Francisco 49ers. This marked the fifth time in 11 years that the 49ers had ended the Packers’ postseason run.
Despite the early challenges, the Packers’ ability to turn their season around and earn a playoff berth was an impressive feat, showcasing the team’s resilience and the promise of their new starting quarterback.

After surprising everyone earlier this year and maintaining most of the team’s core players, the Packers are ready to take on training camp to prepare for the upcoming campaign. In a video posted on X by the team’s official account, fans will be glad to see everyone was working hard with each other in the roster.

With a nearly intact offense, a rebuilt defense, and an exciting rookie class, the team is expected to achieve 10 or more wins. The schedule appears favorable, with only one two-game road trip, leading to more opportunities for Green to rack up more victories.
The Packers will open in Brazil against the Philadelphia Eagles when the season starts and end at home against the Chicago Bears. Much like the video, the team is aiming to solidify their status as a legitimate NFC contender under Love’s leadership when the league returns later this year.
