Impact Melton received reps at corner during minicamp in June. It appears the 2022 seventh-rounder will officially make the switch to defense, though he'll likely operate as a depth piece in the secondary behind Keisean Nixon, Carrington Valentine and Nate Hobbs. Melton appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Packers in 2024 and posted eight catches (on 17 targets) for 91 yards while adding eight carries for 54 yards.

Taking reps at cornerback Melton was running cornerback drills during minicamp Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Melton was fifth among Green Bay's pass catchers in snaps in 2024, but after the team added rookie first-rounder Matthew Golden, rookie third-rounder Savion Williams and veteran Mecole Hardman this offseason, Melton's place on the roster became uncertain. His 4.34 speed at least allows him to project as a special teams asset though, and the Packers may get creative to try to find a way to keep him on the 53-man roster. At least for now, there's an opening at cornerback thanks to the recent release of Jaire Alexander (knee).

Impact Melton is now officially set to return to Green Bay where he hauled in eight passes for 91 yards in 17 games last season in addition to carrying the ball eight times for 54 yards. He will likely compete for a spot as a depth receiver and can contribute as a returner and special teamer as well.

APRIL 25 • Associated Press

One catch against Eagles Melton recorded one catch on three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Eagles.

Impact The Packers were down several key pass catchers, as Christian Watson (knee) was inactive, while Jayden Reed (shoulder) and Romeo Doubs (head) were also forced to exit the game. That forced Melton into a more significant role, and he earned multiple targets in a game for just the sixth time in 18 total contests for the campaign. Melton has had moments of productivity in his first two years as a pro, but if he sticks with the Packers as a restricted free agent, he'll likely remain relatively buried on the depth chart.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted four times Melton caught three of four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.

Impact Melton played just 16 of the Packers' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, yet he saw a season-high four targets in the contest. The 25-year-old saw increased usage in the passing game against Minnesota with fellow wideout Christian Watson (ankle) inactive. Nonetheless, Melton remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Bears.
