Records first catches of NFL career Sturdivant tallied three catches on as many targets for 22 yards during the Packers' 35-14 loss to the Falcons on Thursday.

Impact Sturdivant's nine-yard catch late in the third quarter was the first of his NFL career. He went on to haul in two more passes of three and 10 yards in the fourth quarter and finished Thursday's contest having played 21 of the Packers' 66 snaps on offense (31.8 percent). Most of that playing time came when Green Bay was facing a large deficit, but Sturdivant figures to see at least some involvement in the offense given the uncertainty around the status of Jayden Reed (neck) for the rest of the 2026 season.

Inactive for Week 1 Sturdivant (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Impact The undrafted rookie out of Florida impressed the Packers' coaching staff enough to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he'll have to wait until Week 2 against the Jets on Sunday, Sept. 20, to make his regular-season debut. Bo Melton and Skyy Moore will be the depth wideouts for Sunday's NFC North clash behind Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden.

Impact The undrafted free agent out of Florida impressed the coaching staff with 112 receiving yards and a touchdown in the Packers' preseason finale. Sturdivant is likely to be limited to a depth role out of the gate, as Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden seem secure in the top three spots on the wide receiver depth chart.

Explodes for 112 yards in exhibition finale Sturdivant caught six of seven targets for 112 yards and a touchdown Friday in a 42-38 preseason victory over Arizona.

Impact Sturdivant and QB Kyle McCord accounted for all of the yardage on the Packers' first touchdown drive, connecting on a 36-yard pass down the middle before Sturdivant hauled in a 29-yard touchdown along the sideline on the following play. Sturdivant had been in concussion protocol earlier in the week, but he recovered in time to play Friday and posted a huge performance in his effort to secure a spot on the 53-man roster. Even with Friday's impressive effort, the 23-year-old could end up being cut by the end of the weekend, though it wouldn't be surprising at all if Sturdivant makes the club given the offensive skills he has flashed and his ability to contribute on special teams.

Impact Sturdivant spent time with Cal, UCLA and Florida during his collegiate career. In his lone season with the Gators last year, he tallied 406 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 27 catches.
