The 1-2 Green Bay Packers signed 36-year-old guard Kevin Zeitler to a reported one-year deal as they try to fix an offensive line that has struggled to protect Jordan Love and support the running game. Zeitler, a Wisconsin native with 213 career starts, could take over at right guard when he is ready. The team also added Laken Tomlinson, Mekhi Becton and Cordell Volson. Slot receiver Jayden Reed suffered a season-ending neck injury, leaving Green Bay without a versatile playmaker.

CFP, ESPN Agree to 24-Team Playoff Expansion

The College Football Playoff says its expanded media-rights agreement with ESPN is in final review, paving the way for a proposed 24-team playoff starting in 2027, with four Power Four automatic bids, one Group of Six bid and 19 at-large spots. The expansion could bring ESPN an additional $345 million annually, but critics warn that more playoff games could further weaken regular-season viewership and the relevance of bowl games.
