NFC North Roundup: Final cut fever comes to a close as opening week awaits

It’s finally here. Week one of the NFL regular season.

As the Green Bay Packers finalize their roster ahead of a much anticipated first game matchup with the Chicago Bears, the franchise will officially kick off its 100th season. While there were some mild surprises during cutdown week, including the release of Vince Biegel, Ahmad Thomas, and Aaron Ripkowski, the Packers’ key players remain mostly healthy and intact. A new-look defense, debut of Jimmy Graham, and return of Aaron Rodgers point to another exciting season in Green Bay.
