Green Bay, December 18, 2025 — The Green Bay Packers organization and the entire Packers Nation are mourning a heartbreaking loss following devastating news: Christina Chambers, a respected veteran sports reporter who covered the Packers for more than a decade, has tragically passed away at a far-too-young age.
Christina Chambers was a familiar and trusted presence on the sidelines at Lambeau Field, standing through freezing winds, falling snow, and historic December nights as she followed the Packers through countless defining moments — from iconic NFC clashes to playoff battles etched into Green Bay lore.
With her radiant smile and unwavering professionalism, Christina delivered sharp sideline reports, emotionally powerful postgame interviews, and intimate behind-the-scenes stories that connected Packers players with fans around the world. She covered the team across eras, witnessing the leadership of legends like
Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews, and later the rise of a new generation led by Jordan Love, Jaire Alexander, and Rashan Gary. Snowstorms, subzero temperatures, or Lambeau’s timeless roar — Christina was always there, microphone in hand, carrying the soul of Packers football to viewers nationwide.
Tragedy struck in devastating fashion. According to law enforcement officials, on Tuesday morning (approximately December 16, 2025), police discovered the bodies of Christina Chambers and her husband, Johnny Rimes
, inside their home in Hoover, Alabama. Authorities believe the incident is related to domestic violence, with investigators suspecting that the husband killed Christina before taking his own life. Their 3-year-old son was found safe nearby. Though physically unharmed, he has lost an extraordinary mother — a loving, talented, and devoted woman.
Christina’s passing has left an irreplaceable void within
Packers Nation. She was more than a reporter assigned to the team — she was part of the Packers family, a steady presence through seasons of tradition, heartbreak, and championship pursuit.
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur shared in a statement: “Christina wasn’t just covering the Packers — she truly cared about our players, our staff, and this community. Her professionalism, kindness, and positive energy touched everyone she worked with. Our hearts are broken.”
Across social media, fellow journalists, former players, and fans have expressed overwhelming sorrow, with tributes spreading rapidly under hashtags such as #PackersNation, #ForeverGreenAndGold, and #InMemoryOfChristina.
Christina Chambers was more than a journalist. She was an inspiration to young reporters pursuing careers in sports media and a reminder that humanity matters as much as wins and losses. Her passing also casts a painful spotlight on the devastating reality of
domestic violence, underscoring the urgent need for awareness, protection, and support for those suffering in silence.
The Green Bay Packers and Packers Nation extend their deepest condolences to Christina’s family, friends, and loved ones. She will forever be remembered as a steady light on the sideline — a trusted voice, a warm smile, and a lasting part of Green Bay football’s story.
Rest in peace, Christina. Packers Nation will carry you forever. 💚💛
