Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst said recently that he wants linebacker Quay Walker on the roster in 2026 one way or another, but it won't be under the terms of the team's fifth-year option on his contract.

Having established himself as a vital member of the Green Bay Packers' defensive line, Devonte Wyatt has had the fifth-year option on his rookie contract picked up. Per Fox Sports' Jordan Schultz, the Packers exercised Wyatt's option year for 2026 that will guarantee him $12.9 million.
