The 1921 Green Bay Packers were the first to participate in the National Football League.

The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers have competed in the National Football League (NFL) since 1921, two years after their original founding by Curly Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun.[1] They are members of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) and play their home games at Lambeau Field in central Wisconsin.[2][3] Over 1,800 people have played in at least one regular season or postseason game for the Packers since 1921.[a][4] The team's all-time roster does not include players who only played in games during the 1919 or 1920 seasons (prior to the Packers' admission into the NFL). Players who only participated in preseason games or who only were signed to the practice squad are also excluded.[5] Roster sizes have evolved since the early days of the NFL, growing from 18 roster spots in 1921 to the lower 50s by the 2020s.[b][6]
