💥 BREAKING NEWS: Packers Strengthen D-Line With New Signing!

Описание: 🚨 BREAKING NEWS: Packers Strengthen D-Line With New Signing 🚨

Green Bay Packers news today: Packers claim DT Jonathan Ford off waivers from the Chicago Bears, Jordon Riley injury update after Achilles tear, and the latest Packers roster moves for the 2025 NFL playoffs.

Packer Nation, Brian Gutekunst is making moves as the injury bug continues to bite the defensive interior. Following a "humbling" loss to the Baltimore Ravens where the defense surrendered over 300 rushing yards, the Green Bay Packers (9-6-1) have officially reunited with a familiar face. On Monday, December 29, the Packers claimed defensive tackle Jonathan Ford off waivers from the Chicago Bears.

This move comes at a desperate time for the Green and Gold. During the Week 17 clash at Lambeau, mid-season addition Jordon Riley—who was already filling in for the injured Devonte Wyatt—suffered a season-ending Achilles injury. With the playoffs just two weeks away, the Packers are turning back to Ford, a 2022 seventh-round pick who knows Jeff Hafley’s system and is ready to jump into the rotation immediately.

🏈 The Return of Jonathan Ford:
The Connection: Ford spent his first two-plus seasons in Green Bay after being drafted out of Miami. While he never saw regular-season action during his first stint, he played in 12 games for the Bears over the last two years, recording 13 tackles and showing growth as a "space-eater."

The Physical Profile: Standing 6-foot-5 and 338 pounds, Ford is a massive body intended to shore up a run defense that just gave up a record-breaking performance to Derrick Henry.

System Familiarity: Unlike bringing in a total stranger, Ford has spent significant time in the building. We discuss why his "learning curve" will be much shorter as he prepares for the Week 18 finale against Minnesota.

The D-Line Rotation: With Wyatt and Riley both on IR, the rotation now features Karl Brooks, Colby Wooden, Quinton Bohanna, and Jonathan Ford. We analyze if this group has enough "pop" to compete in January.
