Overview
- ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported Green Bay chose not to issue a restricted free-agent tender to Emanuel Wilson, allowing him to sign with any team.
- Wilson ranked second on the Packers in rushing in 2025 with 496 yards and three touchdowns and has 1,083 rushing yards and seven scores across 41 games in Green Bay.
- General manager Brian Gutekunst reaffirmed that Josh Jacobs remains the team’s starter, calling him an important part of their plans.
- With Wilson untendered, the Packers’ running backs under contract are Jacobs, Damien Martinez and Pierre Strong Jr., while Wilson and Chris Brooks are headed to free agency.
- Multiple outlets project potential interest in Wilson from the Steelers, Giants, Raiders and Cowboys, and coverage indicates Green Bay could add depth through internal options, the draft or a veteran signing.
