Wyatt has proven himself as a capable interior pass rusher over the last two seasons, totaling 77 quarterback pressures and 12 sacks. He can be a liability in run defense, though. If he is able to take a step in the latter role, he has strong odds of receiving a hefty long-term contract next offseason.

The 27-year-old, who was the 28th overall pick in 2022, has played in 47 games in three seasons with the Packers, recording 12.5 sacks, including five in 2024. Wyatt, who will make $13.9 million in 2026 (per OverTheCap), was the Packers’ highest-graded defensive lineman last season, per PFF.

Wyatt and Walker have not been dominant forces, so the beat writer scuttlebutt has been that both may not have their fifth-year options picked up only due to cost. An extension ahead of the deadline to exercise the fifth-year option in a few weeks is a possibility. Wyatt has been an adequate pass rusher through his first three seasons with Green Bay, but his run defense has been questionable — he had a 52.0 PFF run defense grade in 2024.

Wyatt left the game early in proceedings, totaling just five snaps before leaving. Should the Packers come back and advance to the Divisional Round, his status will be questionable. Wyatt played 14 games and racked up five sacks and 23 combined tackles in the regular season.
