Oft-Injured Cornerback to Be Released by Packers After 1 Season with Organization

Green Bay designated Nate Hobbs a June 1 release on March 10, 2026, after signing Benjamin St-Juste, sources said.
After adding Benjamin St-Juste, Hobbs was cut post-June 1, due to knee issues and limited play, with 27 tackles and a 111.1 passer rating over 11 games.
Despite minimal production, Hobbs was paid $16 million as a roster bonus plus a $1.2 million base salary, totaling $17.2 million for the season.
The move frees about $8 million on the cap by avoiding the $6.25 million roster bonus, with Hobbs' cap charge remaining until June 1, possibly aiding contract extensions.
With free agency starting Wednesday, the Packers traded Romeo Doubs and signed Benjamin St-Juste, projecting Nixon, Valentine and St-Juste as top cornerbacks amid roster changes.
