Eric Stokes Injury News & Updates
Oct 9, 2025
Full practice Thursday
Stokes (knee) was a full participant at practice Friday.
ANALYSIS
Stokes opened the week as a limited participant at practice due to the knee injury that forced him to miss Week 5, but he now appears to be a full go ahead of the team's matchup with the Titans on Sunday. The cornerback will likely be back in a starting role versus Tennessee.
Oct 8, 2025
Still dealing with knee issue
Stokes (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was unable to suit up in Week 5 at Indianapolis due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 4 versus the Bears, and now his status is again uncertain for Week 6. He'll likely need to practice in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.
Oct 5, 2025
Not playing vs. Indianapolis
Stokes (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.
ANALYSIS
Stokes suffered a knee injury during the Raiders' Week 4 loss to the Bears. He was a limited participant in practice all week, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery to be cleared to play Sunday. Veteran Jamal Adams and rookie third-rounder Darien Porter figure to see an uptick in defensive snaps at outside corner in Stokes' absence.
Sep 28, 2025
Dealing with knee injury
Stokes is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Stokes appeared to suffer the injury in the fourth quarter and will have his injury evaluated by trainers to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game late. Darien Porter and Jamal Adams could see additional work in the secondary if Stokes is unable to return.
Mar 11, 2025
Headed to Las Vegas
Stokes and the Raiders agreed on a one-year, $4 million contract Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes will head to Las Vegas after spending the first four years of his career with the Packers, most recently registering 41 total tackles (29 solo) over 17 regular-season games in 2024. The former first-rounder will look to reinvigorate his NFL stock on a "prove it" deal with the Raiders in 2025.
Jan 20, 2025
Plays in all 17 games for Green Bay
Stokes finished the 2024 season with 41 tackles (29 solo) across 17 regular-season games.
ANALYSIS
Selected with the No. 29 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Stokes appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the first time in his career, logging seven starts at cornerback. Stokes battled a laundry list of lower-body injuries during the 2022 and 2023 campaigns, missing 22 of a possible 34 contests during that time due to ankle, knee, foot and hamstring issues. The Packers eventually declined Stokes' 2025 option last offseason, and the soon-to-be 26-year-old (in March) is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this spring.
Sep 9, 2024
Two tackles vs. Philadelphia
Stokes finished Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles with two tackles (one solo).
ANALYSIS
It was a low tackling output by Stokes, but he did play 65 of the Packers' 76 defensive snaps Friday as the starting corner opposite Jaire Alexander. Stokes has appeared in just 13 regular-season games over the past three years after appearing in 16 contests in his rookie year in 2021. The 25-year-old corner is looking to make an impact in Green Bay's secondary and earn a hefty contract after his fifth-year option was declined in May.
May 28, 2024
Healthy once again
Stokes (hamstring) has been participating in OTAs this week, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Injuries have hampered Stokes' last two seasons but the third-year pro is feeling good in preparation for the 2024 campaign. The 25-year-old had the fifth-year option of his rookie option denied earlier in May, but a healthy and successful season could help earn him an extension next offseason.
May 2, 2024
2025 option denied
Stokes (hamstring) will not have his fifth-year option exercised by the Packers, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes had a successful rookie campaign after Green Bay selected him in the first round of the 2021 Draft, but he's had trouble staying on the field since. The Georgia product appeared in just three games in 2023, while suiting up nine times in 2022. If he can remain healthy this season though, he should be able to make an impact in Green Bay's secondary and is expected to start opposite Jaire Alexander at corner.
Dec 30, 2023
Done for season
Stokes (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Stokes appeared in each of the Packers' last two games since coming off injured reserve in mid-December, but it seems as if his hamstring issue is bothering him once again and he'll now miss the remainder of the season. The 2021 first-round pick has really struggled to stay on the field over the past two years, playing in just 12 of Green Bay's 32 games. Stokes' move to IR likely makes room for Carrington Valentine to start in the Packers' secondary over the next two weeks.
Dec 30, 2023
Out Week 17
Stokes will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Vikings due to a hamstring injury.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was a late addition to the Packers' injury report with a hamstring injury that has been lingering with him for a while. With Jaire Alexander (suspension) also sidelined, Green Bay will be thin at cornerback. Thus, Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine are the likely candidates to step up in the secondary.
Dec 17, 2023
Will make return Week 15
Stokes (hamstring) is active to face the Buccaneers on Sunday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was activated from injured reserve Saturday and will suit up Sunday for the first time since Week 7. In his only game so far this season, the cornerback logged zero defensive snaps and four special-teams snaps before hurting his hamstring. Stokes' return Sunday will provide extra depth in the Packers' defensive backfield with Jaire Alexander missing another contest due to a shoulder injury.
Dec 16, 2023
Activated from IR
Green Bay activated Stokes (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Stokes has played in only one contest this season, logging four special-teams snaps and no defensive snaps Week 7 against Denver. He hurt his hamstring in that game and was subsequently placed on IR. Stokes remains questionable to face the Buccaneers on Sunday, though his prospects for suiting up appear strong given that he logged three full practice sessions this week.
Dec 15, 2023
Questionable for Sunday
Stokes (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was been a full participant in practice over the last two weeks, but is still on the team's IR after being designated to return Nov. 27. He's appeared in just one game this season -- Week 7 against the Broncos -- and has a good chance to return for Sunday's NFC clash.
Dec 13, 2023
Starts week with full practice
Stokes (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
The Packers designated Stokes to return from injured reserve Nov. 27. He was able to practice in full in the week leading up to Monday's contest against the Giants, but he ended up sitting out. Still, the fact Stokes has been able to practice without limitations is a good sign for him to make his return Sunday against the Buccaneers.
Dec 9, 2023
Questionable for Monday
Stokes (hamstring) was a full participant in Saturday's practice but is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Giants, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was able to participate fully in all three practices this week, which gives him a good chance of being activated from the Packers' IR ahead of Monday's contest. He's played just one game this season as he's battled multiple lower body injuries.
Dec 7, 2023
Has no limitations during practice
Stokes (hamstring) was a full participant during practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Stokes is still in the middle of his 21-day window to practice with the team since he was designated to return from IR on Nov. 27. The Packers can return him to the 53-man roster at any point, but it's not clear if they will do so ahead of Monday's game against the Giants.
Dec 1, 2023
Doubtful for Sunday
Stokes (hamstring) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2021 first-round pick has played just four snaps this season, as he's dealt with both foot and hamstring issues. Stokes was able to log a week of limited practice sessions, and in order to suit up Sunday night, he must be activated to the Packers' active roster. With Stokes likely missing Week 13, both Keisean Nixon and Corey Ballentine should see increased work in Green Bay's secondary.
Nov 27, 2023
Gets designation to return
Green Bay designated Stokes (hamstring) for return from its injured reserve list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
The move opens a 21-day window during which the Packers can officially activate Stokes before they'd be forced to shut him down for the rest of the season. Green Bay's injury reports this week will provide insight into whether he might be able to play in Week 13 versus the Chiefs.
Oct 25, 2023
Not practicing Wednesday
Stokes (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes played just four snaps on special teams in Week 7 before being ruled out for the remainder of the game with a hamstring injury, which is apparently still bothering him to begin Green Bay's week of practice. He'll probably need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a chance to play Sunday versus Minnesota.
Oct 22, 2023
Ruled out for remainder of game
Stokes (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game with the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was making his return from a foot injury versus Denver, but he's now done for the day after suffering a hamstring injury in the first half. With Jaire Alexander (back) already unavailable, the Packers are rather thin at cornerback in Week 7.
Oct 22, 2023
Exits game Sunday
Stokes left Green Bay's game against the Broncos on Sunday with a hamstring injury, Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was dealing with a foot injury heading into the game and is now questionable to return with a hamstring injury as well. The Packers are now missing three key contributors in their secondary as Jaire Alexander (back) is inactive, and both Stokes and Darnell Savage (calf) have left Sunday's game with injuries.
Oct 22, 2023
Officially active
Stokes (foot) will make his season debut in Sunday's game in Denver, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
One day after getting activated off the reserve/PUP list, Stokes is set to return nearly one year after suffering a season-ending foot injury. He could see a big role right away, as Jaire Alexander (back) has been ruled inactive.
Oct 21, 2023
Gets green light
Stokes (foot) has been activated off IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes is set to make his season debut with the Packers nearly one year after an ankle injury ended his second campaign. The former first-round pick figures to work his way back into the swing of things, but that process could be expedited if Jaire Alexander (back) is unable to go.
Oct 20, 2023
Questionable Sunday
Stokes (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against Denver, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Even though the 24-year-old has yet to be activated from the reserve/PUP list, Stokes has logged limited practices over the past few weeks, which is a sign that he's trending towards returning soon. If the 2021 first-round pick is able to suit up this Sunday, he'll likely take work away from guys like Carrington Valentine and Keisean Nixon.
Oct 18, 2023
Limited at practice
Stokes (foot) was logged a limited practice with the Packers on Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes has yet to be activated from the reserve/PUP list, but he continues to log limited practices, which is a positive sign for his chances to be back on the field soon. The cornerback will look to increase to a full participant prior to Sunday's matchup with the Broncos.
Oct 7, 2023
Questionable Monday
Stokes (foot) is listed as questionable headed into Monday night's game against Las Vegas, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2021 first-round pick out of Georgia has yet to be activated from injured reserve, but he's been designated to return and he's listed as questionable going into Monday. Stokes has been a limited participant during Packers practice all week, and if he's able to return, it'll likely take secondary work away from guys like Carrington Valentine and Keisean Nixon.
Oct 5, 2023
Returns to practice
Stokes (foot) was a limited participant in practice Thursday after returning from the reserve/PUP list Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The cornerback has entered the 21-day practice window before he can move back to the active roster. Stokes tore his meniscus and suffered a Lisfranc injury last November and has been out ever since. The third-year pro started 23 games and made 81 tackles over his first two seasons.
Oct 3, 2023
Takes next step for return
Stokes (foot) was designated to return from the PUP list Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes now has a 21-day window to practice with the team before moving to the active roster. The Georgia product may need most of that time, as he hasn't been able to practice with the team since suffering the injury last November. Although he could conceivably return as soon as Monday's game against the Raiders, a Week 7 return, following the team's bye week, against the Broncos would be a more realistic target for Stokes and the Packers.
Aug 30, 2023
Out first four games, at least
The Packers placed Stokes (foot) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes won't be eligible to play or practice until after the conclusion of Week 4. He's working his way back from a torn meniscus and a Lisfranc injury suffered Week 9 last season, and it remains to be seen when Green Bay actually anticipates having him back on the field.
Jul 21, 2023
Placed on PUP list
Stokes (foot/knee) was placed on the PUP list Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes suffered both a torn meniscus and a Lisfranc injury in Week 9 of the 2022 campaign, ending his season early, and he will now open the Packers' training camp on the sidelines. The cornerback is eligible to return to practice and play at any point this preseason, though Green Bay will likely take things slow.
May 23, 2023
Rehabbing to start OTAs
Stokes (ankle) didn't practice Tuesday at OTAs, but he was active on the sidelines doing rehab work, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was a full-time starter last year before suffering a season-ending ankle injury against the Lions in Week 9. Head coach Matt LaFleur said early in the offseason that he hopes to get Stokes back "as soon as possible," and it's encouraging to see the 2021 first-round pick attacking rehab strong, but his status for the start of the 2023 campaign remains unclear.
Apr 6, 2023
Could miss season opener
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that he hopes to get Stokes (ankle) back "as soon as possible," meaning there's a chance he won't be available Week 1 in September, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes, who sustained a season-ending ankle injury in Week 9 of this past campaign, appears to be slowly recovering given coach LaFleur's recent comments that indicated the 24-year-old may not be ready for Green Bay's first matchup later this fall. If Stokes eventually misses any more time, then both Jaire Alexander and Rasul Douglas would presumably have their hands full at the cornerback position.
Nov 12, 2022
Goes to IR with ankle injury
Green Bay placed Stokes (ankle) on its injured reserve list Saturday.
ANALYSIS
After sustaining an apparently serious ankle injury during the Packers' loss at Detroit in Week 9, Stokes will now be forced to miss at least the next four games as he recovers. Until he's ready to play again, Keisean Nixon should see more work at corner.
Nov 11, 2022
Ruled out for Week 10
Stokes (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes sustained an ankle injury during last week's loss to the Lions, and coach Matt LaFleur said this week that the cornerback is "unlikely" to return this season. While the team hasn't yet made a final decision regarding his status for the remainder of the year, he'll at least be unavailable for Sunday's Week 10 matchup.
Nov 9, 2022
Absent from practice Wednesday
Stokes (ankle) was listed as DNP at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Stokes' absence comes as no surprise since he was seen on crutches and wearing a walking boot following Sunday's loss to the Lions. Per Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Stokes was still on crutches Wednesday, and head coach Matt LaFleur indicated that the team should know by the end of this week if the cornerback will miss the remainder of the campaign. With that context, it appears highly unlikely that Stokes will be able to suit up Sunday versus Dallas.
Nov 6, 2022
Spotted on crutches postgame
Stokes (lower body) was seen on crutches and wearing a walking boot on his right foot after being forced out of Sunday's 15-9 loss to the Lions, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes appears to have suffered a significant injury, as he exited in the first half before being ruled out with an ankle/knee designation. The second-year cornerback played 448 defensive snaps over the first eight games of the season, so his potential absence would be a substantial hit loss for the Packers' secondary moving forward. It will be worth monitoring Stokes' status heading into next Sunday's game against Dallas.
Nov 6, 2022
Won't return versus Detroit
Stokes (lower body) was downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was carted to the locker room shortly before being ruled out in the first half, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, leaving him sidelined until at least next Sunday's contest against the Cowboys. The 23-year-old recorded 25 tackles but no passes defended over the first eight games of the season.
Nov 6, 2022
Exits with injury Sunday
Stokes (lower body) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was officially listed with an ankle/knee issue by the Packers, though the nature of these injuries are still unclear. The second-year cornerback logged one tackle before exiting early in the first quarter. With Stokes sidelined, Rasul Douglas moved into Green Bay's outside cornerback spot while Keisean Nixon has stepped into the slot against Detroit, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.
Sep 12, 2022
Four tackles in season opener
Stokes recorded four tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 23-7 loss against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Stokes oftentimes found himself matched up with one of the league's top wide receivers in Justin Jefferson, who erupted for 184 yards and two scores on nine catches. However, one positive takeaway for the second-year cornerback is that he was able to play every defensive snap for the Packers on Sunday. Expect Stokes to rebound dramatically next Sunday night when the team hosts the Bears and their subpar WR corps.
Feb 4, 2022
Secures key role in rookie season
Stokes tallied 55 tackles (43 solo), an interceptions and 14 pass deflections over 16 appearances in 2021.
ANALYSIS
The Packers selected Stokes in the first round of the 2021 Draft, and he paid immediate dividends, playing 86.7 percent of the defensive snaps -- a mark that led all Packers cornerbacks. Expect him to be lined up in the starting spot opposite Jaire Alexander when the 2022 season gets underway.
Nov 14, 2021
Active Sunday
Stokes (knee) will play Sunday against the Seahawks, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes was able to log limited practices all week after injuring his knee during warmups in Week 9 against Kansas City. The Packers first-round selection of 2021 should resume his starting role Sunday.
Nov 13, 2021
Gets questionable tag
Stokes (knee) is listed as questionable for the Pakckers' Week 10 matchup with the Seahawks, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes injured his knee during warmups prior to Green Bay's loss in Kansas City last week. He was subsequently limted at practice for consecutive days to kickoff the week before practicing in limited fashion Friday. While he seems to be trending in the right direction, the rookie's final status will likely depend on how he is feeling during pregame warmups.
Nov 11, 2021
Practices with limitations
Stokes (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Stokes sat out Sunday's loss to Kansas City after suffering a knee injury during warmups, so the fact he's practicing Wednesday is a good sign. The rookie first-round pick could avoid an injury designation for Week 10 if he's able to practice fully Thursday or Friday.
Nov 7, 2021
Held out with knee issue
Stokes was unable to play in Sunday's loss to Kansas City after he suffered a knee injury in pregame warmups, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 22-year-old was questionable following his pregame injury but was ultimately unable to take the field. Rasul Douglas and Chandon Sullivan will likely see increased roles if Stokes is held out for Sunday's Week 10 matchup against Seattle.
Nov 7, 2021
Injures knee during warmups
Stokes injured his knee during warmups and is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Stokes has been forced into a full-time starting role during his first season in the NFL, as the Packers have dealt with injuries to Kevin King (shoulder/concussion) and Jaire Alexander (shoulder). King is healthy for Week 10, but Alexander is still on injured reserve. If Stokes is unable to play against the Chiefs, then the Packers will have to rely on Rasual Douglas as the starter opposite of King, while Chandon Sullivan operates in the slot.
Oct 4, 2021
Snags first career interception
Stokes made eight solo tackles, recorded his first career interception and tallied two pass deflections in Sunday's 27-17 victory over the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
The Steelers went after Stokes a bit on underneath routes, but the rookie held his own and ultimately sealed the game but picking off the final pass thrown his direction. Stokes has taken on a key role in the Packers' defense, and he could play an even more important one in the weeks ahead if fellow cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder) misses any time.
Sep 21, 2021
Two pass deflections in Week 2
Stokes recorded a solo tackle and two pass deflections in Monday's 35-17 victory over the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Stokes barely saw the field in Week 1, but he played 77 percent of the snaps Monday, and he was stout after an early coverage mix-up led to Detroit's first score of the night. He figures to continue seeing the field plenty, as per Daire Carragher of Packer Report, Stokes is Pro Football Focus's highest-graded rookie cornerback through two weeks.
