Packers Release Nate Hobbs
The Green Bay Packers are releasing cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee) on Tuesday with a post-June 1 designation, a source told Rob Demovsky of ESPN. With the move, the Packers will save $8 million against the 2026 salary cap. The move doesn't come as a huge surprise, as Hobbs played in only 11 games (five starts) for the second straight season in 2025 and finished the year with a torn MCL that he suffered in Week 17 against the Baltimore Ravens. The 26-year-old signed a four-year, $48 million contract with Green Bay in March of last year. Hobbs was drafted in 2021 by the Las Vegas Raiders in the fifth round out of Illinois. It's unclear if Hobbs will be ready to go for the start of the 2026 season this fall, but if he is, he should be a candidate to start with another team. Injuries have been an issue for him, though, as Hobbs has played more than 13 games in a season just once, back in his rookie season in 2021.
