Keep up with the latest injuries from the Vikings vs Packers game on Sunday with our National Football League injury report.Oct 31, 2025
Good to go Week 9
Wyatt (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has been working through a knee issue since Week 4 and was limited in practice all week due to the injury, but the 2022 first-rounder has been given the green light to play Sunday. Wyatt has accumulated eight tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two pass defenses across five regular-season games.
Oct 29, 2025
Back on injury report
Wyatt (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has been hampered by a knee issue since Week 4 but managed to return to game action in Green Bay's win over Pittsburgh. A limited session is likely just to limit his reps ahead of a Week 9 matchup against the Panthers, though his status will be worth monitoring throughout the week.
Oct 26, 2025
Cleared to play vs. Pittsburgh
Wyatt (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt drew the questionable tag for Week 8 after being limited in practice all week, and he has been cleared to return from a two-game absence due to a knee injury. His return means Karl Brooks and Nazir Stackhouse will both see a small dip in rotational snaps at defensive tackle, though rookie sixth-rounder Warren Brinson (hamstring) is inctive for Sunday's game.
Oct 24, 2025
Questionable to play Week 8
Wyatt (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt missed the Packers' two games following the Week 5 bye due to a knee injury he sustained against the Cowboys in Week 4. He was limited in practice all week, and his official status for Sunday night's game may not be officially announced until the Packers announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Wyatt's return would lead to less rotational snaps at defensive tackle for Karl Brooks and Nazir Stackhouse.
Oct 22, 2025
Returns to practice
Wyatt (knee) participated in practice in a limited fashion Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt hurt his knee in Week 4 versus Dallas and hasn't played since. He hadn't been practicing before this week, so his return to the field -- albeit in limited fashion -- Wednesday is an encouraging sign. When asked about Wyatt's status Wednesday, Packers coach Matt LaFleur said, "Wyatt, he'll get out there for practice today. We'll see how he practices this week," per Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site.
Oct 17, 2025
Set for another absence
Wyatt (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt originally suffered the knee injury in Week 4 and was considered week-to-week. This will mark his second consecutive absence, though it's been three weeks since the injury due to a bye week. Wyatt was unable to practice in any capacity during the week, suggesting he may not be all that close to returning.
Oct 15, 2025
DNP to open week
Wyatt (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has not played or practice since suffering a knee injury during Green Bay's Week 4 tie against Dallas. The 2022 first-rounder would have to return to practice over the next two days to have a chance at playing against the Cardinals on Sunday. Karl Brooks, Nazir Stackhouse and rookie sixth-rounder Warren Brinson will continue to see additional snaps at defensive tackle for as long as Wyatt is out of action.
Oct 10, 2025
Won't play Week 6
Wyatt (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered a knee injury during the second quarter of the Packers' Week 4 tie to the Cowboys. Even with the Packers on a bye for Week 5, the injury was severe enough to keep him out of practice all week and rule him out for Sunday's home game. Nazir Stackhouse, Colby Wooden and rookie sixth-rounder Warren Brinson are in line to see more snaps at defensive tackle in Wyatt's absence.
Oct 8, 2025
Doesn't practice Wednesday
Wyatt (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered a knee injury during the Packers' Week 4 tie against the Cowboys. He was labeled as week-to-week by head coach Matt LaFleur after the game, and the 2022 first-rounder has opened Week 6 prep with a DNP. Wyatt will have two more chances to practice in at least a limited capacity but could enter Sunday's game with the Bengals with an injury designation. Nazir Stackhouse would see a significant increase in snaps at defensive tackle if Wyatt isn't able to play, and rookie sixth-rounder Warren Brinson would be in line to be active for the first regular-season game of his NFL career.
Sep 30, 2025
Week-to-week with knee injury
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Wyatt is considered week-to-week due to a knee injury that he suffered during the Packers' 40-40 tie with the Cowboys on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The good news for the Packers is that they are on the bye for Week 5, so Wyatt may not miss any time if he's cleared to play in Green Bay's Week 6 tilt against Cincinnati on Sunday, Oct. 12. Nazir Stackhouse saw a significant increase in defensive snaps following Wyatt's injury Sunday, and the former would be in line to see more work in rotation at defensive tackle if the latter misses time. Wyatt has logged six tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two pass defenses through four games this season.
Sep 28, 2025
Done for night
Wyatt (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday night's contest in Dallas, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered a knee injury in the first half of the game, which will now officially bring his night to an end. The defensive tackle secured one tackle in the contest prior to his departure, and in his absence, Karl Brooks and Nazir Stackhouse will continue to see an increase in workload on Green Bay's defensive line.
Sep 28, 2025
Questionable to return Sunday
Wyatt (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
The defensive tackle recorded one tackle before exiting. Wyatt played on more than 50 percent of the defensive snaps in each of Green Bay's first three games. Karl Brooks and Nazir Stackhouse are the next defensive tackles in line in the Packers' rotation.
Sep 26, 2025
Active for Week 4
Wyatt (knee) was a full participant at practice Friday, Aaron Nagler of Cheesehead TV reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt opened the week as a non-participant at practice Wednesday due to a knee injury that he suffered in the team's Week 3 loss to the Browns, but he was able to log a full session Friday, clearing the way for him to play Sunday night in Dallas. The defensive tackle has compiled five total tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed over three contests this season.
Sep 24, 2025
Limited at practice
Wyatt (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered a knee injury in the team's 13-10 loss to the Browns in Week 3, and head coach Matt LaFleur described him as day-to-day Monday. The defensive lineman will have two more opportunities to log a full practice before Sunday night's contest in Dallas.
Sep 22, 2025
Nursing knee injury
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Wyatt is considered "day-to-day" due to a knee injury that he suffered during Green Bay's 13-10 loss to Cleveland on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt played a season-low 38 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss and did not record a tackle. His practice participation over the coming week will be worth monitoring, as it will indicate his chances of playing in the Packers' Week 4 clash against the Cowboys on Sunday, Sept. 28. Nazir Stackhouse and Karl Brooks would be in line to see additional snaps at defensive tackle alongside Colby Wooden for as long as Wyatt is sidelined.
Sep 8, 2025
Notches Week 1 sack
Wyatt registered three tackles (one solo) and a sack in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt started a game for the first time since 2023, and the 49 snaps he played were the most among the nine defensive lineman that took the field Sunday for the Packers. Wyatt is a former first-round pick who is under contract through the 2026 season, so expect him to remain busy along Green Bay's defensive front.
Apr 30, 2025
Option picked up by Green Bay
The Packers exercised Wyatt's (lower leg) fifth-year option Wednesday, Christian Kirby of Sports Illustrated reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2022 first-round pick from Georgia will remain in Green Bay through the 2026 season after the team exercised his option Wednesday. Wyatt has been one of the Packers' top pass-rushers over the past two seasons, recording 59 total tackles, including 10.5 sacks, across 31 regular-season games. Now recovered from the lower leg injury sustained in last year's wild-card loss to the Eagles, Wyatt is expected to serve as one of the Packers' starting defensive linemen in 2025.
Jan 20, 2025
Records 5.0 sacks in third season
Wyatt (lower leg) finished the 2024 season with 23 tackles (17 solo), including 5.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries across 14 regular-season contests.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt missed three games in the middle of the season with an ankle injury, and he was then injured five snaps into the wild-card playoff loss to the Eagles. Despite the missed time, Wyatt's 5.0 sacks were second-most on the team behind Rashan Gary's 7.5. Wyatt has 10.5 sacks over the last two seasons and has become a pocket-pusher in the middle of Green Bay's defensive line. Wyatt has one year remaining on his rookie contract.
Jan 12, 2025
Ruled out for rest of Sunday
Wyatt (lower leg) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's NFC wild-card game versus Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt is now officially done for the day after suffering a lower leg injury in the early moments of Sunday's game. Tedarrell Slaton and Colby Wooden will continue to operate in more significant roles on Green Bay's defensive line.
Jan 12, 2025
Questionable to return Sunday
Wyatt (lower leg) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC wild-card matchup with the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered a lower leg injury in the first quarter, placing some doubt on his ability to return to action. In his absence, Tedarrell Slaton and Colby Wooden will see an increase in workload.
Jan 3, 2025
Cleared to play
Wyatt (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was diagnosed with a concussion after exiting last Sunday's game against the Vikings, but he practiced in full all week, so it's fair to wonder if he was even truly concussed, as that sort of quick recovery from a concussion is almost unheard of these days. Through 13 games this season, Wyatt has 22 tackles (16 solo), including nine TFLs and 5.0 sacks, and a pair of fumble recoveries as a rotational defensive lineman.
Dec 29, 2024
Won't return vs. Minnesota
Wyatt has been diagnosed with a concussion and has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt will now enter the league's five-step concussion protocols, which he will have to clear in order to play in the Packers' regular-season finale against the Bears next weekend. Tedarrell Slaton and Colby Wooden are in line to see more snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter Kenny Clark due to Wyatt's injury.
Dec 29, 2024
Being evaluated for concussion
Wyatt (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt took a shot to the head early in the third quarter and is now being evaluated for a concussion. Colby Wooden and Tedarrell Slaton will see more snaps at defensive tackle for as long as Wyatt is sidelined.
Oct 27, 2024
Will play vs. Jacksonville
Wyatt (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt suffered an ankle injury in Week 4 against the Vikings, but after practicing in a limited capacity this week, the 2022 first-round pick will make his return from a three-game absence and play Sunday. Wyatt will reclaim his starting spot on the Packers' interior defensive line next to Kenny Clark.
Oct 25, 2024
Could return in Week 8
Wyatt (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Georgia product returned to practice this week in a limited fashion after missing the Packers' last three games due to an ankle injury, and he's got a chance to suit up in Week 8. However, if Wyatt is forced to miss his fourth consecutive game Sunday, expect Colby Wooden and Tedarrell Slaton to see increased snaps with Green Bay's first-team defensive line.
Oct 23, 2024
Returns to practice Wednesdy
Wyatt (ankle) was listed as a limited practice participant on the Packers' injury report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Wednesday's session was the first practice Wyatt has participated in since injuring his ankle in Week 4 against the Vikings. It's an encouraging sign for the 2022 first-round pick, and if he's able to practice Thursday and Friday, he could return from a three-game absence and suit up against the Jaguars on Sunday. Wyatt has logged 10 tackles (eight solo), including 3.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery across four regular-season games.
Oct 18, 2024
Sidelined again in Week 7
Wyatt (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has yet to practice since sustaining an ankle injury in the Packers' Week 4 loss to the Vikings, and he's now set to miss his third consecutive game Sunday. Expect Tedarrell Slaton and Karl Brooks to continue seeing increased reps on the Packers' defensive line until Wyatt returns from injury.
Oct 16, 2024
DNP to open week
Wyatt (ankle) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has missed the Packers' last two games due to an ankle injury sustained in Week 4 against the Vikings. He has yet to return to practice since the injury, and his DNP to open the week doesn't bode well for his chances to play Sunday against the Texans. Wyatt's practice participation Thursday and Friday should provide some clarity on his injury progression.
Oct 11, 2024
Missing Week 6
Wyatt (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt will now miss his second consecutive game after sustaining an ankle injury in the Packers' Week 4 loss to the Vikings. The 2022 first-round pick has yet to practice since injuring his ankle, indicating that he may miss additional time after Week 6. Expect Tedarrell Slaton and Colby Wooden to see increased playing time with Green Bay's first-team defense in Wyatt's stead.
Oct 9, 2024
Continues to sit out of practice
Wyatt (ankle) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt injured his ankle in Week 4, which kept him sidelined for Week 5 against the Rams. Wyatt has yet to return to practice since the injury, and unless he does so this week, he's in jeopardy of being held out of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Colby Wooden would continue to see more work with the first-team defense if Wyatt is unable to play in Week 6.
Oct 4, 2024
Out Week 5
Wyatt (ankle) will not play in the Packers' Week 5 matchup with the Rams, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was a non-participant at practice all week, rendering this news relatively unsurprising. He suffered an ankle injury in Green Bay's Week 4 loss to the Vikings. In his absence, Tedarrell Slaton is the top candidate to start alongside Kenny Clark at defensive tackle in Wyatt's absence.
Oct 3, 2024
Doesn't practice Thursday
Wyatt (ankle) did not participate in Thursday's practice session.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt has been a DNP for both practices this week due to an ankle injury he sustained in Week 4 against the Vikings. He looks to be a longshot to play Sunday against the Rams, though he would give himself a chance at suiting up if he were to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday. Tedarrell Slaton would be the top candidate to start at defensive tackle alongside Kenny Clark (toe) if Wyatt is unable to play Sunday.
Sep 29, 2024
Won't return vs. Vikings
Wyatt has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against Minnesota due to an ankle injury.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt will end the game with three total tackles. It remains to be seen whether his ankle injury will jeopardize his chances of playing in Week 5 against the Rams. Tedarrell Slaton will see additional snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter Kenny Clark for the rest of Sunday's game.
Sep 29, 2024
Goes to sidelines
Wyatt (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt had three total tackles, including one for a loss before exiting the Week 4 matchup. With the game late in the fourth quarter, it's probably unlikely the Georgia product will return. Assuming he doesn't, his next chance to play will come Week 5 against the Rams.
Sep 23, 2024
Tacks on two sacks
Wyatt recorded four tackles (three solo) and 2.0 sacks in Sunday's 30-14 victory over the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt is now up to 3.0 sacks on the season, which puts him well on his way to surpassing the career-best 5.5 sacks he recorded in 2023. The Packers are giving eight players regular snaps on the defensive line, and Wyatt -- despite not having logged a start through three weeks -- will certainly remain one of them.
Sep 16, 2024
Logs sack vs. Colts
Wyatt recorded two tackles for loss, including 1.0 sack, during Sunday's 16-10 win over the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt's two tackles for loss were the only tackles he recorded in Week 2, but he was the only Packer able to bring down Anthony Richardson. The 2021 first-round pick has posted six pressures across Green Bay's first two contests, and he's expected to remain of of the team's top rotational interior defensive lineman as the Packers travel to Tennessee in Week 3.
Sep 9, 2024
Plays 36 snaps vs. Eagles
Wyatt registered one solo tackle and a fumble recovery in Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt worked as a reserve in the Packers' 4-3 defense, and he ended up playing 36 of 74 defensive snaps, three less than starter Tedarrell Slaton. Wyatt recovered a Jalen Hurts fumble during the first quarter, which led to a 23-yard field goal from Brayden Narveson eight plays later. Wyatt -- Packers' first-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft -- should continue to serve prominently in the defensive scheme for Week 2 against the Colts.
Jan 23, 2024
Racks up 5.5 sacks
Wyatt tallied 36 tackles (18 solo), 5.5 sacks and one fumble recovery over 17 games in the 2023 season.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt started only five games in his second season after not starting one as a rookie, but he played half of the defensive snaps and had a respectable showing in the sack department. The 2022 first-rounder has flashed some upside, and the Packers will be hoping he can take another step in 2024.
Nov 23, 2023
Returns Thursday
Wyatt (head) has returned to Thursday's game versus the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt exited the contest to be evaluated for a potential concussion, but he has since been cleared. His return indicates the 2022 first-round pick should be considered healthy going forward.
Nov 23, 2023
Being evaluated
Wyatt is being evaluated for a potential concussion suffered during Thursday's game against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt's absence will weaken the Packers' defensive front while he is out of the game, It should also lead to increased snaps for Karl Brooks and Colby Wooden. If it's determined Wyatt has not suffered a concussion, he'll be able to return to the game.
Oct 27, 2023
Clear to play vs. Vikings
Wyatt (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus Minnesota, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was forced out of Green Bay's game at Denver in Week 7 early with a knee injury, but he'll be good to go again for Week 8. He should start on the defensive line Sunday.
Oct 22, 2023
Done for day
Wyatt (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's matchup with Denver.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt went down with a knee injury in the first half and his day has officially come to an end. More information on his status will come following the game. In the meantime Karl Brooks will see an increase in usage on the defensive line.
Oct 22, 2023
Exits with knee injury
Wyatt (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game with the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was able to play in Week 7 after dealing with a knee injury this week at practice, but he was forced to exit in the first quarter. It's unclear if it's a new injury or if he suffered a setback with his pre-existing one.
Oct 22, 2023
Good to go
Wyatt (knee) has gotten the green light to play in Green Bay's Week 7 matchup with the Broncos, Mike Spofford of the team's official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt drew a questionable tag on the Packers' final injury report, but he will ultimately play through the issue. Barring any setbacks, the second-year defensive end should take on his usual workload.
Oct 20, 2023
Could play Sunday
Wyatt (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against Denver, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt seems to have suffered a knee injury at some point over the last two weeks, which has held him to limited participation in Green Bay's practices. The 2022 first-round pick has recorded 13 total tackles, four tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks through five appearances this year. If Wyatt is unable to go this Sunday, Karl Brooks will likely see an uptick in work on the Packers' defensive line.
Sep 11, 2023
Makes mark in Week 1
Wyatt recorded three tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
It took Wyatt all of one game to match the sack total he finished his rookie season with, and he displayed the type of disruption that made him a first-round pick in 2022. Expect him to get plenty of chances to make an impact on Green Bay's defensive line.
Dec 27, 2022
Increased role ahead
Wyatt will move into a more significant role with Dean Lowry (calf) placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was the team's selection in the first round of the 2022 Draft, but he's failed to make an impact thus far in his rookie season. Through 14 contests, Wyatt has played just 148 defensive snaps, recording 13 tackles (six solo) and 0.5 sacks. He'll now work to make the most of his extra opportunities beginning Sunday against the Vikings.
Oct 23, 2022
Set to play against Commanders
Wyatt (illness) is active Week 7 against Washington.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt entered the week with a questionable tag due to an illness, but it won't prevent him from taking the field. The first-round pick is still unlikely to be an IDP factor, however, as he hasn't seen double-digit snaps on defense since Week 1 and has logged just two tackles on the season.
Oct 15, 2022
Ready to return
Wyatt (quadriceps) does not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Was Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt was forced to miss the Packers' Week 5 matchup against the Giants in London. However, after logging a full practice Friday, he should be ready to return to his reserve role along the team's defensive line against the Jets.
Oct 9, 2022
Not playing in London
Wyatt (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants in London, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Though he took a questionable tag into the weekend, Wyatt never seemed to be trending toward playing after he was a non-participant in the Packers' final two practices of Week 5. With Wyatt sidelined for Sunday's game, the Packers won't have much depth on hand between starting defensive ends Dean Lowry and Jarran Reed.
Oct 7, 2022
Sits out back-to-back practices
Wyatt (quadriceps) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Giants in London, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
After being limited during Wednesday's practice due to a quadriceps injury, the rookie defensive tackle was downgraded to a non-participant for Thursday and Friday's sessions. Wyatt appears to be trending in the wrong direction, but he still has a shot to suit up in Week 5. Regardless, he's played just 16 defensive snaps over the past three weeks, so his potential absence wouldn't have a major impact on Green Bay's defense.
May 5, 2022
Agrees to rookie deal
Wyatt agreed to sign a four-year, $12.86 million contract with the Packers on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Wyatt went to the Packers with the 28th overall pick in the draft, and he's the first 2022 first-rounder to agree to terms with his team. The 24-year-old ran a 4.47-second 40-yard dash at the combine and should have a chance to carve out a role on Green Bay's defensive line as a rookie.
