Packers Director of Public Affairs Aaron Popkey on Wilde and Tausch

The Packers didn’t just move on from Rashan Gary — they got something for him. In this segment of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, former Packers tackle Brian Bulaga reacts to the news that Gary was traded to the Dallas Cowboys for a 2027 fourth-round pick, and what it means for Green Bay’s cap flexibility moving forward. 030926 Bulaga on JGC Bulaga admits he was surprised the Packers found a trade partner willing to absorb Gary’s contract — calling it a win given that a release seemed likely. 🏈 Sean Ryan’s Deal Raises Eyebrows The bigger conversation shifts to the offensive line. Bulaga was stunned Sean Ryan landed an $11 million per year deal after only nine starts at center. He explains: The center market is thin. Linderbaum-type money ($20M+) was never realistic for Green Bay. The Packers essentially chose cost control over star power. But that doesn’t mean the job is done. 🧱 “Five Is Not Enough” Bulaga makes it clear: Having five starters does not equal having a complete offensive line. The Packers’ group: Banks battled injuries. Elton’s move to center didn’t work. Zach Tom is coming off a major knee surgery. Jordan Morgan is projected at left tackle but unproven. Bulaga stresses the need for real depth and real competition — not just hoping internal improvement fixes everything. 🧠 The Elton Jenkins Move The shift of Elton Jenkins to center was a major domino. When it failed, the line never fully stabilized. Bulaga notes: When you move a Pro Bowl guard and it doesn’t work, the ripple effects are unavoidable. That decision, paired with injuries, contributed to the regression from a Top-10 unit to a bottom-tier group. ⚖️ Rashid Walker & Market Reality The show closes with Rashid Walker’s projected $19–20M market value. Bulaga’s blunt assessment: The Packers cannot afford to pay four offensive linemen premium money. If they pay Ryan, Tom, and Banks — someone has to walk. 🎯 The Bottom Line The Packers improved flexibility by moving Gary. But flexibility doesn’t equal finished. If Jordan Love is taking major hits again in 2026, none of the cap math will matter. 🎧 A former player’s honest assessment of Green Bay’s trench strategy — with Brian Bulaga on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

Malik Willis may be the most fascinating quarterback on the free agent market — and the numbers being floated are staggering. In this edition of Jen, Gabe & Chewy, ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter joins the show live from airport chaos en route to the NFL Combine to break down why Willis’ timing could lead to a massive payday — potentially in the $40–50 million per year range. 022526 Schefter on JGC 🏈 Why Malik Willis’ Timing Is Perfect Schefter explains the simple equation: Weak quarterback draft class Limited veteran options Multiple QB-needy teams Desperation across the league That combination creates leverage. He compares the situation to Justin Fields’ deal last year — but notes the ceiling may be significantly higher because of market scarcity. Timing + talent = money. 🔄 Kyler Murray, Tua & The Domino Effect The conversation expands to other quarterbacks whose futures feel uncertain: Kyler Murray — Are the Cardinals truly committed? Tua Tagovailoa — Contract complications and durability questions Daniel Jones — Could the Colts make a move? Schefter makes it clear: When quarterback supply is thin, even imperfect options gain serious value. 🧀 What This Means for the Packers Green Bay may not need a starting quarterback — but losing Willis could force them into the veteran backup market. Schefter notes that for quarterbacks who can’t land starting jobs, a place like Green Bay could be appealing: Stable organization Strong coaching staff Opportunity to reset But the price may surprise people. 💰 Seahawks Sale: $10 Billion?! In one of the most jaw-dropping parts of the interview, Schefter discusses the Seattle Seahawks potentially selling — and how the number being floated could reach $10 billion. NFL franchise values continue to skyrocket, and ownership investment remains one of the most stable assets in sports. The NFL’s financial engine isn’t slowing down. ✈️ Combine Week Chaos Schefter also shares how the NFL Combine functions behind the scenes: Agents recruiting Teams quietly discussing trades Information flowing everywhere Deals forming before anyone realizes Even before he lands in Indianapolis, conversations are already happening. ⚖️ The Bottom Line Malik Willis’ value is real. The quarterback carousel is about to spin. And when supply is limited, prices get outrageous. The NFL offseason hasn’t even started — and it’s already volatile. 🎧 A fast-moving insider look at quarterback chaos, market leverage, and billion-dollar ownership moves — with Adam Schefter on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.

Amid fans reacting to news of the Green Bay Packers reiterating that they'll revoke season tickets from fans who "repeatedly resell" on the secondary market, Packers Director of Public Affairs Aaron Popkey joins Wilde and Tausch.

Mike McCarthy--Former Green Bay Packers Super Bowl champion and new head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers--joins Wilde and Tausch.

One more for the road. The Season 2 finale of the weekly edition of Weekly Wilde is here, and Jason Wilde and Alex Strouf close the book by diving into what’s next for the Packers after Super Bowl week. They start with the most unsurprising (and most debated) hire of the offseason: Luke Getsy returning as quarterbacks coach after Sean Mannion leaves. From there, they get into the backup quarterback plan with Malik Willis expected to depart, and why the Packers are clearly stacking reclamation projects behind Jordan Love. Then it’s rapid-fire offseason triage: Josh Jacobs and the value of leadership and toughness, the reality of offensive line decisions (Elgton Jenkins, Aaron Banks, Sean Rhyan), and the looming Rashan Gary cap and production conversation. Plus: why “change for change’s sake” is tempting, but not always better.

ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy from Super Bowl week in San Francisco to break down the biggest storylines shaping the NFL offseason — and it all starts with the quarterback market. 021126 JGC Hour 1 From Malik Willis’ rising value to the uncertain futures of Kyler Murray and Tua Tagovailoa, Schefter walks through how a thin draft class and limited free-agent options are about to create a quarterback scramble across the league. 🏈 Malik Willis: Perfect timing Schefter makes it clear: Malik Willis picked the right year to hit free agency. With: A weak quarterback draft class Limited veteran options Desperate teams in need of competition Willis is poised to be “a man in demand.” Schefter compares the situation to the year Josh McCown suddenly became the top quarterback available, explaining how timing — not pedigree — can drive the market. His prediction? A contract similar to Justin Fields’ two-year, $40 million deal — possibly more. 🔄 Kyler Murray & Tua: Hard to trade, harder to replace Schefter also addresses speculation around Kyler Murray and Tua Tagovailoa, explaining why their situations are far more complicated than fans realize. For Arizona: Trading Kyler creates a new problem — finding someone better The quarterback pool simply isn’t deep enough For Miami: Tua’s contract is “exceedingly difficult” to move A trade would likely require financial gymnastics The takeaway: Even teams frustrated with their quarterbacks may end up keeping them — because alternatives are worse. 🏟️ Maxx Crosby & the Raiders’ gamble Schefter touches on the Las Vegas Raiders’ future, including the speculation around Maxx Crosby’s trade interest. With: A new head coach (Clint Kubiak) The No. 1 overall draft pick Nearly $90 million in cap space Schefter suggests this isn’t the worst time to be a Raider — and that things can change quickly, just as they did last year when Myles Garrett and Micah Parsons trade talk ultimately went nowhere. 🧠 Rodgers, McCarthy & Pittsburgh The segment also explores: The Steelers’ interest in bringing Aaron Rodgers back Mike McCarthy’s willingness to reunite with Rodgers How quarterback scarcity makes even imperfect fits worth exploring Schefter’s message is consistent: When the market is thin, options become leverage — and leverage drives decisions. 🌍 International expansion & the bigger NFL picture Schefter briefly addresses: The NFL’s aggressive push toward international games The inevitability of an 18-game season How the league’s business priorities often outweigh player comfort He sums up the offseason simply: Quarterback uncertainty, impatient owners, and shifting power dynamics defined 2026 — and those themes aren’t going away. ⚖️ The bottom line Adam Schefter leaves listeners with a clear outlook: Malik Willis will have options Kyler and Tua’s futures remain fluid The Raiders and Steelers are pivot points And quarterback scarcity is about to drive everything When supply is low, demand skyrockets. 🎧 A fast-paced, insider look at the NFL’s quarterback domino effect and the chaos that could define the offseason — with Adam Schefter on Jen, Gabe & Chewy.
