Why the Packers’ schedule sets up REALLY nicely...

from Packers: DERAILED Hosted by J.J. Lahey and Jake Schyvinck

OPE Star Wars episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG-IQ8wJgVU New episode of Packers: DERAILED from The Packer Project! J.J. Lahey goes solo to break down a busy week for the Green Bay Packers, including new roster additions, waiver claims, the 2026 NFL schedule release, and the launch of a new home for Packers fans. Topics: Packers roster moves and waiver claims - J.J. reacts to the Packers adding WR Brenden Rice, the son of Hall of Famer Jerry Rice, and CB M.J. Devonshire. What does Rice bring as a former seventh-round pick with NFL bloodlines, and could Devonshire’s ball-hawking ability and special teams value help him push for a spot in a crowded secondary? We also discuss the Luke Lachey situation after he failed his physical and will not be joining the team. 2026 Packers schedule reaction - Is Green Bay’s schedule as favorable as it looks? J.J. breaks down the structure of the schedule, the mini-bye opportunities, the late-season home stretch, and the games that could define the Packers’ season. From the Week 1 opener in Minnesota to the Christmas Day matchup against the Bears and the Thanksgiving Eve game against the Rams, we walk through the biggest tests on the calendar. Packers schedule release video - J.J. reacts to the Packers’ “Kicking Curds” arcade-themed schedule release video, including appearances and voice work from names like Tom Grossi and LeRoy Butler.
