ss BREAKING: Packers Cut Rookie After He Allegedly Leaked Team Tactics to the Eagles Ahead of a Crucial Game!
Green Bay, Wisconsin – November 15, 2025 – The Green Bay Packers have officially released rookie Drake Dabney, a tight end (TE) on the practice squad (PS), after discovering his involvement in leaking critical offensive tactics that led to their defeat against the Philadelphia Eagles in a recent game.
The decision came just days after the 7-10 loss, where the Eagles anticipated the Packers’ play call on a pivotal fourth-down, resulting in a fumble by running back Josh Jacobs.
According to team sources, immediately after the game—when Jacobs and quarterback Jordan Love publicly acknowledged that the Eagles had “called out” the “inside zone” play before the snap—the Packers’ leadership launched a rigorous investigation.
They reviewed security cameras at the training facility and strategy meeting areas from the days leading up to the game. The findings revealed that Dabney, an undrafted free agent from TCU (and previously Baylor), had secretly eavesdropped on an internal strategy meeting.
Dabney, 23 years old, was signed to the Packers’ practice squad at the start of the 2025 season after going undrafted and having a tryout with the Tennessee Titans.
He was not a standout player, primarily serving in a reserve and training support role, and had never played in an official NFL game. During questioning, Dabney admitted to sharing the information with a close friend.
He claimed he only wanted to boast about “how amazing the Packers’ tactics were” without realizing the consequences. However, this unintentional action turned disastrous: Dabney’s friend has a cousin working in the Eagles’ coaching staff, and the information spread through that connection, allowing the Eagles to accurately predict the play on the crucial fourth-down.
“We cannot tolerate any risks related to tactical security,” head coach Matt LaFleur stated in a brief press conference. “Dabney seriously violated internal rules, even if it was unintentional. The release is necessary to protect the team and send a clear message to all members.”
Dabney, who only joined the NFL this year, expressed remorse in his statement: “I just wanted to share my excitement about what the team was doing, but I never expected things to turn out this badly. I apologize to the team and my teammates.” Nevertheless, the Packers showed no leniency and terminated his contract immediately, while also strengthening internal security measures.
This incident raises concerns about information security in the NFL, especially among young players on practice squads. The Packers are currently in third place in the NFC North with a 5-3-1 record, and they need to make quick adjustments to avoid repeating mistakes against upcoming division rivals. Dabney may seek opportunities with other teams, but this stain could impact his fledgling career.
Ex-Packers Fan Favorite Clearly Told ALL Parties Involved After Becoming Free Agent: “I Want Green Bay Packers” — The Message Was STRONG
Green Bay, WI – The Green Bay Packers are back in the NFC hunt behind a young core and an increasingly explosive passing game, but one question keeps resurfacing as the season gets deeper and colder: who’s going to be the reliable finisher when it’s time to bleed the clock and win in the trenches at Lambeau?
That’s where one familiar name keeps showing up on internal lists and fan wishboards alike — a player Packers fans remember as much for his energy as his production. That player is Jamaal Williams, the former Green Bay fan favorite who spent four seasons in green and gold before leading the NFL in rushing touchdowns with 17 as a member of the Detroit Lions in 2022.
After his breakout in Detroit, Williams signed a three-year deal with the New Orleans Saints. But between injuries, rotation usage and scheme fit, his role never fully stabilized, and the Saints eventually released him in a cap move, sending him into the 2025 season as a veteran free agent looking for the right situation. Since then, he’s hovered on the edge of rosters — drawing interest, taking a workout or two — but as November rolls on, he remains one of the more recognizable backs still on the open market.
Behind the scenes, though, there’s nothing uncertain about what he wants. According to those close to him in this fictional scenario, Jamaal has delivered the same message in every conversation with his agent and any team that has kicked the tires:
“I told everyone the same thing — I WANT GREEN BAY PACKERS. This is where I learned how to be a pro, where the fans made me feel like family. Pay me less if you have to, just give me one more chance to run in green and gold.”
For the Packers, the idea is at least tempting. They don’t need him to be a 20-carry workhorse anymore. What they could use is exactly what he’s always brought: tough, downhill yards in obvious run situations, trustworthy pass protection on third down, and a tone-setting presence in a young locker room. A midseason addition who already knows the building, the culture, and the expectations might be one of the simplest moves they could make for the stretch run.
Jamaal’s case goes beyond depth-chart math; it’s about identity. In Green Bay, he went from “just another fourth-round back” to a beloved piece of the franchise’s recent era — the dancing pregame, the upbeat pressers, the extra effort on runs that had no business gaining as much as they did. One more chapter at Lambeau would feel, to him, less like a new job and more like finishing a story where it started.
Whether the Packers ultimately make that call is still unknown. But as contenders around the league scramble for veteran help and insurance in the backfield, Jamaal Williams has already planted his flag. In a business where most players say they’ll go “wherever the money is,” this ex-Packers fan favorite has chosen a different route — sending a loud, unmistakable message to all 32 teams: if it’s not Green Bay, it’s probably not happening.
