2025 Green Bay Packers Naughty or Nice List

This season isn't over for the Green Bay Packers. 

It sure felt like it was over when Micah Parsons went down with a torn ACL. Heck, it probably felt it was over when Tucker Kraft went down with the same injury much earlier in the year.

Others felt hope even in the post-Parsons era for 2025, but then felt that hope start to waver after the shocking and inconceivable loss to the Chicago Bears (P.S. Romeo Doubs is on the naughty list).

The truth of the matter is this, though: Hope isn't lost for this season. The Packers can still finish out at 11-5-1 with wins over the Baltimore Ravens and Minnesota Vikings. Heck, they can still make a run through the playoffs. We've seen wilder things happen in the NFL.

Still, we've seen enough football in 2025 to definitively put together a 2025 Green Bay Packers Naughty or Nice List to celebrate Christmas. And away we go...

Jordan Love - Nice 

Love has played at a Pro Bowl level this season. In fact, there's a case to be made that he was a Pro Bowl snub, or at the very least he was right on the edge of it all. He's thrown for 3,381 yards and 23 touchdown this season compared to six interceptions. His average QBR of 72.9 is third best in the league behind only Pro Bowlers Drake Maye and Dak Prescott. 

Rashan Gary - Naughty 

Rashan Gary has 7.5 sacks on the season. He's been sitting on those 7.5 sacks since October 26th. That's just not good enough for a former first round pick. In fact, it's downright terrible considering the fact that Gary counts $25.7 million against the cap in 2025, $28 million in 2026 and $31 million against the cap in 2027. He's a cut candidate because he's simply not been good enough.

Micah Parsons - Nice

We can't leave Parsons off this list just because he got injured. Ultimately, he finished this season with 12.5 sacks while becoming the first player in NFL history to notch at least 12 sacks in his first five seasons and the first defensive player since Aaron Donald to be named to the Pro Bowl in each of his first five seasons. He's elite, and hopefully, he comes back better than ever in 2026.

Matthew Golden - Naughty 

Golden may end up being a superstar for this team. Heck, you can see it in the way he plays. It's in there. So far, though, his rookie season has been a massive disappointment considering the fact that he's the first first-round wide receiver the Packers have drafted since Javon Walker in 2002. He's caught just 27 passes for 341 yards without a touchdown. That's just not going to cut it moving forward.

Josh Jacobs - Nice 

Josh Jacobs has been a rock for the Packers. He's been playing on one leg for multiple weeks now, but he's doing everything he can to get out there and play hard for this team. He's an All-Pro running back with no ego, who is willing to put it all on the line to get a win. He's rushed 230 times this season for 926 yards and 13 touchdowns. You just can't beat that.

Matt LaFleur - Naughty

Why? Well, he still hasn't fired his inept special teams coach, Rich Bisaccia. The other reason is that he's openly admitted to being on the naughty list with his wife. That's about as far down that rabbit hole as we're going to go, though perhaps she also would like to see Bisaccia fired.
