Rotowire
Wyatt (ankle) participated in drills to begin Packers training camp, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Wyatt suffered a season-ending ankle fracture back in Week 13 of the 2025 season, but he now appears to be healthy again with the 2026 campaign around the corner. He projects to play a major role on the defensive line alongside Karl Brooks and veteran free-agent acquisition Javon Hargrave (undisclosed) during the upcoming season.
Packers' Devonte Wyatt: Agrees to extension with Packers
Rotowire
Wyatt (ankle) agreed to terms Monday on a three-year, $57 million contract extension with Green Bay, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Wyatt, a 2022 first-round pick, had been set to play out the 2026 campaign on the fifth-year option of his rookie deal. Instead, the 28-year-old now will benefit from long-term security with the Packers. He tallied 27 tackles (15 solo), including 4.0 sacks, and two pass defenses over 10 regular-season games in 2025 before suffering a fractured ankle and undergoing surgery. Wyatt is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, with veteran players reporting on July 28.
Packers' Devonte Wyatt: Should be ready for training camp
Rotowire
Wyatt (ankle) expects to be ready for training camp as he recovers from a broken fibula and torn ligament in his ankle, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Wyatt was placed on injured reserve Dec. 5 due to an ankle injury, and the details of his injury have been revealed following the Packers' elimination from the postseason at the hands of the Bears in the wild-card round. The 2022 first-round pick is expected to reprise his role as a key player along the interior of Green Bay's defensive line in 2026 while playing on the fifth-year option in his rookie contract.
The Packers placed Wyatt (ankle) on injured reserve Friday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Wyatt fractured his ankle during the Packers' Thanksgiving win over the Lions, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for the rest of the 2025 campaign. He'll finish with 27 tackles (15 solo), including 4.0 sacks, and two pass defenses over 10 regular-season games. Wyatt's absence leaves Colby Wooden as the top candidate to enter a starting role at defensive tackle alongside Karl Brooks.
Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed Monday that Wyatt (ankle) will miss the remainder of the season, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Wyatt suffered a fractured ankle in the Thanksgiving win over the Lions. He'll wrap up the 2025 season with 27 tackles (15 solo), including 4.0 sacks, seven total QB hits and two pass breakups across 10 contests. Nazir Stackhouse and Warren Brinson will need to step into larger roles up front on the defensive line.
