Placed on IR Hobbs (knee) landed on injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact This was the expected outcome after Hobbs suffered a knee injury this past Saturday against Baltimore. Though he could technically return if Green Bay reaches the Super Bowl, it's not clear if there's a chance he'll be recovered in time even if the Packers were to win three playoff games. Hobbs will finish his first campaign in Green Bay with 27 tackles and two defensed passes along with 45 kick-return yards over 11 regular-season games.

Likely done for the season Head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters Wednesday that Hobbs (knee) is likely out for the rest of the season, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The 26-year-old corner sustained a knee injury in the Week 17 loss to the Ravens, and it now appears serious enough to sideline him for the remainder of the season. Hobbs struggled to stay healthy in his first year as a Packer, recording 31 total tackles and two passes defensed across 11 games. While he's likely out for the rest of Green Bay's 2025 campaign, expect Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine to operate as the team's top boundary cornerback duo.

Ruled out with knee Hobbs (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday night's game against the Ravens.

Impact Hobbs was unable to return for the second half of Saturday night's game. The cornerback will end the night with one solo tackle and one pass defensed. The rest of the Packers' secondary will have to fill in for the injured corner, with Bo Melton as the primary candidate for an increased snap share.

Questionable with knee issue Hobbs (knee) is questionable to return to Saturday night's game against the Ravens, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hobbs exited the game in the second quarter with a knee injury. The issue could potentially be a re-aggravation of a prior issue the cornerback suffered in Week 4 against the Cowboys. If Hobbs is unable to return Bo Melton will likely see an increased role in the Packers' secondary for the remainder of Saturday night's contest.

Will play Week 14 Hobbs (knee) is active for Green Bay's game versus the Bears on Sunday, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.

Impact Hobbs is set to make his return to the field after missing the last four games with a knee injury. The 26-year-old should resume his role as a depth corner during Sunday's matchup.

Tagged as questionable Week 14 Hobbs (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Hobbs was limited in practice all week due to an MCL sprain, but he has a chance to be cleared to return from a four-game absence. If he is given the green light to play Sunday, then Hobbs could be moved to the slot corner position if Javon Bullard (ankle) doesn't suit up.

Still limited in practice Hobbs (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.

Impact Hobbs opened last week's short practice week as a limited participant but was unable to play in last Thursday's win over the Lions. The fifth-year cornerback will look to progress further and make his first appearance since Week 9 in this Sunday's matchup versus the Bears. It's unclear what kind of role Hobbs will have upon his return to the lineup, but he should settle in with at least 50 percent of the defensive snaps once he's fully healthy.

Sitting out Thursday Hobbs (knee) is inactive for Thursday's matchup with the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact The cornerback was listed as limited for Green Bay's walkthrough Tuesday and entered Thursday with a questionable tag, but the turnaround was likely too fast for him to return to game action after missing the past three games. Hobbs has served in a rotational role for the Packers at corner this year, recording 19 tackles (10 solo) and a pass breakup. Bo Melton or Kamal Hadden could see more snaps in his absence.

Questionable vs. Detroit Hobbs (knee) is questionable for Green Bay's matchup versus the Lions on Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

Impact Hobbs has been sidelined for the past three games but could have a chance to return Thursday. However, if the 2021 fifth-round pick ends up not playing, the Packers could be shorthanded at cornerback as Kesean Nixon (neck) is also questionable.

Limited to open week Hobbs (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

Impact Hobbs has missed the Packers' last two games due to a sprained MCL. He has been listed as a limited practice participant in the first two days of Week 13 prep, and Wednesday's report will provide clarity on his chances of returning for Thursday's game against the Lions. Hobbs' return could impact the amount of defensive snaps available in the secondary for Carrington Valentine and Javon Bullard (ankle).
