Being a position coach in the National Football League is a tough job. It’s even tougher when the position you coach consists of five rookies and a three-year vet who didn’t even play the position until last October. Welcome to your life, Ben Sirmans. Sirmans, a 48-year-old native of New Jersey, enters his second season as
We all found out last September just how important one player can be to the fortunes of a football team. The season-ending injury to Sam Shields also ended any chance the pass defense had of being competent. With that in mind, here’s my annual list of the 10 most irreplaceable Packers heading into training camp:
I don’t see Ty Montgomery as a true No. 1 running back, and as maybe the only person to project the former Stanford star as a ball carrier and not a ball catcher on the day he was drafted in April 2015, I think I have a pretty good feel for No. 88. I know
This is the second of a 14-part series examining each position going into the offseason. Starter (C+): Ty Montgomery made the switch from wide receiver after injuries sidelined Eddie Lacy and James Starks and quickly stabilized the position. The second-year pro from Stanford averaged an impressive 5.9 yards on 77 carries and showed surprisingly good instincts. He ran with patience and was
A player who wasn’t even a running back when Green Bay and Dallas met in the middle of October could be the key to the rematch in the divisional round of the playoffs. Ty Montgomery, who made the switch from wide receiver around Halloween, needs to make an impact on Sunday – especially with Jordy

It wasn’t pretty, but the Packers did what they had to do on Sunday at Lambeau Field. A 21-13 win over Houston evened their record at 6-6 and guaranteed at least one more meaningful game in a season that has been a struggle from the start. As has often been the case throughout the past
Jordy Nelson is still out, but the return of Jared Cook helped the offense enjoy its best practice of the summer on Tuesday. The veteran tight end, who was activated off the PUP list earlier in the day, looked to be in midseason form. The ex-Titan and Ram ran wild over the middle and down
The Packers have six experienced wide receivers, but only two – Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams – are best suited to line up outside. The other four fit better inside. And while that’s no great revelation in regard to Randall Cobb and Jared Abbrederis, it might come as a surprise in regard to Jeff Janis
Ninety players will arrive at training camp on Monday, but it remains to be seen how many will actually be practicing on Tuesday. Based on the offseason, the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list could be pretty crowded to begin the summer. Wide receivers Jordy Nelson and Ty Montgomery, tight end Jared Cook, offensive linemen
