Packers New Star Sends Bold Message With Eye on Super Bowl Run

Green Bay, WI – July 14, 2025

The Green Bay Packers have made a splash this offseason, and their newest addition isn’t shying away from big expectations. Cornerback Nate Hobbs, who signed a four-year, $48 million deal in free agency after four seasons with the Las Vegas Raiders, is making headlines for his candid take on his arrival in Titletown.

Hobbs arrives in Green Bay with a reputation for grit and physicality, tallying 281 tackles, 3 sacks, and 3 interceptions during his tenure with the Raiders. As training camp gets underway, he’s already capturing the attention of teammates and fans—not just for his play, but for his unfiltered approach.

His message is as direct as it gets. “I came to Green Bay for the money—no question about it. But I’m going to prove I’m worth every penny. My first season with the Packers is going to end in February,” Hobbs declared, referencing his Super Bowl aspirations.

For a team that has long prided itself on a blue-collar mentality, Hobbs’ honesty resonates. The Packers have been searching for a shutdown presence in their secondary, and the front office believes Hobbs’ aggressive style and experience can be the missing piece.

Head coach Matt LaFleur has praised Hobbs’ intensity, saying, “We love the edge Nate brings to this locker room. He’s hungry, and that energy is contagious.”

The Packers’ defense is poised for a new era, and with Hobbs locking down opposing receivers, the team’s Super Bowl window feels wide open. Fans are embracing the bold confidence—and the accountability—that Hobbs brings.

As the regular season approaches, all eyes in Green Bay are on their new star. One thing is clear: Nate Hobbs didn’t just come for a paycheck—he’s here to make history.
