Those We Lost in 2025

As we close out 2025, we pay tribute to the Packers we lost this year.

1965 Training Camp Preview

For the 60th anniversary of the 1965 Green Bay Packers championship season, we are presenting the “Touchdown Edition” season preview issue from the Green Bay Press-Gazette. This probably has a limited-interest audience, but it’s here for those folks, and for football posterity. Enjoy a look back at the players of the Lombardi Era, and all of the vintage local ads.

1967 New Orleans Saints Media Guide

From the 1967 New Orleans Saints Media Guide: In 1966, Jim Taylor did not sign a one-year contract and played out his option with the Green Bay Packers. In July 1967, Taylor signed four one-year contracts to play with the expansion Saints. His former partner in the Green Bay backfield, Paul Hornung, was placed on the list of the 1967 expansion draft, along with C-LB Bill Curry and FB-LB Phil Vandersea. A pinched nerve in Hornung’s neck prevented him from ever suiting up for New Orleans, and he retired in training camp. Taylor himself would also retire before the 1968 season began following training camp. Hornung’s page in the Saints Media Guide is basically a summary of his entire playing career in Green Bay. Also shown is the Packers preview page for the upcoming 1967 season. They, of course, were NFL champions that year.
