Valentine registered three tackles (one solo) and two pass defenses (including an interception) during Green Bay's 30-13 win over Seattle this past Sunday. Valentine got the start at outside cornerback this past Sunday due to Jaire Alexander (knee) being sidelined with an injury. Valentine ended up playing 55 defensive snaps and nabbed his first interception of the regular season when he picked off a Geno Smith pass intended for Noah Fant late in the second quarter, which halted the Seahawks' red zone drive in the process. Valentine could start at outside corner opposite Keisean Nixon against the Saints on Monday if Alexander is unable to progress in his recovery enough to play.

Valentine recorded nine total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Bears. The second-year corner from Kentucky capitalized on his increased snaps with the Packers' first-team defense after Jaire Alexander exited Sunday's win due to an aggravation of his knee injury, tying Xavier McKinney as the team's leading tackler. Valentine hasn't seen much defensive work this season after being an integral part of the Packers' defense during his rookie campaign. He's posted 15 total tackles and one pass defended through Green Bay's first 10 regular-season games in 2024. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports that Alexander's injury is not believed to be serious, so Valentine will likely resume his role as the Packers' top backup corner in Week 12, when the 49ers visit Green Bay.

Valentine (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. Valentine missed back-to-back games due to an ankle injury but will return in Week 5. He'll likely start opposite Eric Stokes, as Jaire Alexander (groin) is inactive for a second straight week. Valentine drew a handful of starts last season, but he's played only 38 defensive snaps this season.

Valentine (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Friday's regular-season opener against Philadelphia, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Valentine was listed as a limited participant for Tuesday's practice and Wednesday's estimated report due to a lingering hamstring injury from late July, but he was a full participant in Thursday's session. The 2023 seventh-round pick appears to be good to go for Friday's game, and Valentine will provide depth at corner behind starters Jaire Alexander and Eric Stokes.

Valentine (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant at the Packers' practice Tuesday. Valentine dealt with a hamstring issue throughout the preseason and he appears to still be working through it to open Week 1 with Green Bay. The cornerback will have two practices to return to being a full participant ahead of Friday's matchup with the Eagles in Brazil.
