HC Matt LaFleur Remove Rookie from 53-man roster For Leaking Inside Information

Green Bay, WI – August 30, 2025

The air at Lambeau Field turned heavy just hours before the Packers announced their final 53. An empty locker. A name crossed off the EDGE rotation board. And a blunt message delivered to the room: Collin Oliver — out.

According to internal team sourcing, Collin Oliver, a fifth-round rookie, was removed from the roster for a serious breach of tactical confidentiality, specifically leaking elements tied to defensive communication on third down and certain pre-snap pressure signals. No one mentioned an injury. No one cited a personal matter. This was a story about loyalty — and about betrayal.

After practice, head coach Matt LaFleur didn’t hedge:

We build our culture here on trust. When a player takes internal information outside this locker room, it’s not just a violation — it’s a betrayal. And once you betray…
you don’t deserve to wear the green and gold.

Teammates stayed quiet publicly, but the atmosphere said enough. Position-group chats were locked. Small-group film sessions no longer included Oliver.

Defensive captain Rashan Gary, who is understood to have spoken directly with Oliver, kept it short:

“In Green Bay, these colors aren’t just a uniform — they’re a pledge. You can’t stand in the huddle with us if trust has cracked. Here, if you break brotherhood — you cut yourself off from the team.

Personnel sources indicated the incident began with a private conversation Oliver believed was “harmless,” but it referenced call codes used within the Packers’ 3–4 hybrid packages — an unforgivable slip just days before the season.

By nightfall, Collin Oliver’s name was removed from the official roster. The door back isn’t closed, but the path is steep — and an apology won’t be enough.

“Here, to wear green and gold, you don’t just have to play well,” an assistant said. “You have to be loyal to it — even off the clock.

Chiefs Linked To Saints Super Star With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade, Per Source
Kansas City, MO — According to a circulating on X (Twitter), the Kansas City Chiefs have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Chiefs look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set tailor-made for Andy Reid’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Kansas City intriguing two-back looks alongside Isiah Pacheco on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Red and Gold really excites me.” Source: @nflrums X As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Chiefs or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Kansas City whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Chiefs Kingdom perk up.
