A national championship defensive tackle from Georgia who has turned into a consistent interior pass rusher in Green Bay.
Devonte Wyatt arrived in Green Bay as part of a loaded Georgia defensive line that won a national title, and he has grown into a steady interior presence for the Packers. His blend of quickness and power off the snap has made him a reliable pass-rushing piece up front.
Path to the league
The Packers took Wyatt 28th overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, making him the second of two first-round picks Green Bay used on Georgia defenders that year, alongside linebacker Quay Walker. Wyatt started alongside fellow first-rounder Jordan Davis on Georgia's national championship defense, and in his final season in Athens he earned Coaches' All-SEC First Team and AP All-America Second Team honors.
Career highlights
Over his first three NFL seasons, Wyatt recorded 74 tackles, 12.0 sacks, three fumble recoveries and a forced fumble across 47 regular-season games, developing into one of the more productive interior rushers in the league by pressure rate. His play earned him a three-year, $57 million contract extension with Green Bay.
2025 season recap
Wyatt's 2025 season was cut short by injury, limiting him to 10 games, but he stayed productive when on the field with 4 sacks, 15 solo tackles and 22 total pressures. He finished 14th among interior defenders in pass-rush win rate despite the missed time, a step down from top-four finishes in pressure productivity in 2023 and 2024.
