Melton caught one of his two targets for four yards and logged a 24-yard kick return in the Packers' 20-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Melton played 13 offensive snaps and 14 special-teams snaps in the contest. The No. 4 wide receiver remains a versatile depth option for the Packers, filling in wherever he is needed without garnering much attention.

Packers' Bo Melton: Set for Sunday
Rotowire
Melton (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.
Melton logged just one limited session during Week 7 prep. The wide receiver's Friday upgrade to limited after consecutive DNPs appears to have been enough to green-light the No. 4 option for Sunday's divisional bout with the Lions.

Packers' Bo Melton: Iffy for Week 7
Rotowire
Melton (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Melton opened Week 7 prep with back-to-back DNP's, but his limited session Friday was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for Sunday's NFC North tilt. Savion Williams would see an uptick on both offense and special teams as a returner on kickoffs and punts if Melton cannot play against Detroit.

Packers' Bo Melton: Sees uptick in offensive snaps vs. Atlanta
Rotowire
Melton logged 21 of 66 offensive snaps during Thursday's 35-14 loss to the Falcons but did not catch his only target. He also recorded two tackles and turned two kickoff returns into 46 yards.
Melton played a total of 42 snaps Thursday, split evenly between special teams and offense, and his offensive snap count was fourth-most among Packers wide receivers. Despite the spike in playing time, Melton shouldn't factor into the team's offensive game plan unless a larger role opens up for the 2022 seventh-rounder due to the absence of one or multiple wide receivers.

Packers' Bo Melton: Signs tender with Green Bay
Rotowire
Melton (knee) signed his exclusive-rights tender with the Packers on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Melton is set to receive $1.145 million in 2026 after playing 16 regular-season contests for the Packers in 2025. The wide receiver and special teams piece suffered a knee injury at the end of the 2025 regular season, but he's healthy and ready to go for the start of the 2026 offseason.

Packers' Bo Melton: Available Saturday
Rotowire
Melton (illness) is listed as active Saturday versus the Ravens, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Melton wasn't able to practice at all during Week 17 prep due to an illness, but despite being listed as questionable ahead of the weekend, he'll be available to a Packers offense that will be led by QB Malik Willis (right shoulder/illness) instead of Jordan Love (left shoulder/concussion). Melton will be in the mix for snaps and targets alongside WRs Christian Watson (shoulder/illness), Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Matthew Golden and Dontayvion Wicks, with Savion Williams (foot/illness) inactive.

Packers' Bo Melton: Questionable to play Saturday
Rotowire
Melton (illness) is questionable to play Saturday versus the Ravens, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports.
Melton was added to the injury report with an illness Tuesday, and his status for Week 17 is now up in the air. The 26-year-old splits his time between offense, defense and special teams, so an absence would have a multi-faceted impact.

Packers' Bo Melton: Brings in deep target for TD in Week 14
Rotowire
Melton played nine of the Packers' 53 snaps on offense and recorded a 45-yard touchdown reception on two targets in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.
Green Bay converted Melton to defensive back in the offseason, but the 26-year-old has been seeing more usage on offense in recent weeks in addition to serving as a core player on special teams. He made his biggest play of the season in the Week 14 victory over Chicago, hauling in a deep pass from Jordan Love late in the second quarter to give Green Bay a 14-3 lead. The Packers didn't have Savion Williams (foot) available for a second straight game Sunday, and Matthew Golden was also limited to just five snaps against the Bears due to a wrist injury, so despite delivering a splash play in the Week 14 win, Melton could see his snaps on offense take a hit once Green Bay is back to full strength at receiver.

Packers' Bo Melton: Clear for Sunday
Rotowire
Melton (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Friday and doesn't carry a Week 12 injury designation, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.comreports.
Melton was added to the injury report Thursday after logging a limited practice, but he is ready to go for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings. The 26-year-old should be expected to participate on special teams and at cornerback, as he has throughout the season.

Packers' Bo Melton: Added to injury report
Rotowire
Melton (shoulder) was limited in practice Thursday.
Melton is one of six wide receivers listed as a limited participant on Green Bay's practice report Thursday, though his contributions usually come on special teams and defense (as a cornerback). The dual-position depth option will work to upgrade his activity level at practice Friday, with the goal of gaining clearance for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Packers' Bo Melton: Getting work at CB
Rotowire
Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst told reporters Wednesday that Melton will mostly play at corner during training camp and the preseason, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Melton received reps at corner during minicamp in June. It appears the 2022 seventh-rounder will officially make the switch to defense, though he'll likely operate as a depth piece in the secondary behind Keisean Nixon, Carrington Valentine and Nate Hobbs. Melton appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Packers in 2024 and posted eight catches (on 17 targets) for 91 yards while adding eight carries for 54 yards.

Melton hauled in eight passes for 91 yards in 17 regular-season games for Green Bay last season in addition to carrying the ball eight times for 54 yards. He will compete for a spot as a depth receiver and can contribute as a returner and special teamer as well.

Packers' Bo Melton: Targeted four times
Rotowire
Melton caught three of four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.
Melton played just 16 of the Packers' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, yet he saw a season-high four targets in the contest. The 25-year-old saw increased usage in the passing game against Minnesota with fellow wideout Christian Watson (ankle) inactive. Nonetheless, Melton remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Bears.

Packers' Bo Melton: Chances could increase
Rotowire
Melton had one reception for six yards and two carries for 27 yards in Sunday's 34-13 victory over the Cardinals.
Melton did not do much in the passing game, but he still made an impact in Sunday's contest with runs of 16 and 11 yards. He hasn't had many chances to contribute this season, but with fellow wideouts Jayden Reed (ankle) and Dontayvion Wicks (shoulder) picking up injuries Week 6, his opportunities could increase in Green Bay's impending matchup with Houston.

Packers' Bo Melton: Brings in long reception
Rotowire
Melton was targeted three times and had one reception for 28 yards in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Vikings.
Melton finally recorded a tally in the reception department after being shut out in that category over the first three weeks of the season. He was on the field for only 11 snaps in Week 4, but he could be more involved moving forward with fellow wideout Christian Watson set to miss time after injuring his ankle Sunday. Even in that scenario, though, Melton will be no better than the fourth option behind Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks.
