Devonte Wyatt was set to enter 2026 as a pending free agent, but that will no longer be the case. The Packers have worked out an extension with the former first-round defensive tackle.
Wyatt has agreed to a three-year deal, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports. The pact is worth $57MM and includes a $20MM signing bonus. 2026 was initially going to represent Wyatt’s fifth-year option campaign, with him due to collect $12.94MM.
A raise has now been worked out, though, and Wyatt will remain in Green Bay beyond the coming season. The Georgia product was identified in March as a logical candidate for a multiyear commitment. That was also the case for wideout Christian Watson (who has since landed a new deal) and tight end Tucker Kraft (who is expected to finalize a big-money extension in the near future).
Upon joining the Packers, Wyatt handled a small snap share during his rookie season. His workload more than doubled during the 2023 season, although it was reduced the following year among inconsistent showings against the run. Nevertheless, he has managed to produce in the pass rush department, totaling 14.5 sacks and 36 pressures across the past three seasons. Wyatt was a key figure along the defensive front in 2025, logging a 60% snap share. A November ankle fracture limited him to just 10 games, however.
More to come…
