Green Bay, December 19, 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 temperatures, biting winds, and snow-filled afternoons as she followed the Packers through countless defining moments — from fierce NFC North rivalries to unforgettable playoff runs that became part of Green Bay football history.
With her radiant smile and unwavering professionalism, Christina delivered sharp sideline reports, deeply emotional postgame interviews, and intimate behind-the-scenes stories that connected Packers players with fans across the world. She covered the team across multiple eras, witnessing leadership from franchise legends and chronicling the rise of a new generation of Packers stars. Whether it was the roar of Lambeau, a tense primetime showdown, or a season-defining moment, Christina was always there — microphone in hand — carrying the heart 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 was related to domestic violence, with investigators suspecting that the husband took Christina’s life before taking his own. 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 defined by tradition, resilience, and championship pursuit.
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur shared in a statement:
“Christina wasn’t just covering the Packers — she genuinely cared about our players, our staff, and this community. Her professionalism, kindness, and compassion were felt by everyone who worked with her. Our hearts are broken.”
Across social media, fellow journalists, former players, and fans have expressed overwhelming grief, with tributes spreading rapidly under hashtags such as #PackersNation, #GoPackGo, and #InMemoryOfChristina.
Christina Chambers was more than a journalist. She was an inspiration to young reporters pursuing careers in sports media and a powerful reminder that humanity matters just 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 who may be 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 presence, and a lasting part of Green Bay Packers history.
Rest in peace, Christina. Packers Nation will carry you forever. 💚💛
