Packers' Dani Dennis-Sutton: Absent with illness
Rotowire
Dennis-Sutton (illness) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
The fourth-round rookie is set to be a key piece of the Packers' linebacker depth in 2026. If Dennis-Sutton cannot recover quickly from the illness, he could miss Friday's preseason contest against the Broncos.
Packers' Dani Dennis-Sutton: Scooped up by Packers
Rotowire
The Packers selected Dennis-Sutton in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 120th overall.
Dennis-Sutton boasts a production-filled career in his time at Penn State, compiling 42 tackles and 8.0 sacks in each of his last two seasons with the Nittany Lions. He backed that up with impressive numbers in the jumps, three-cone drills and the 40-yard dash, ranking in the 85th-plus percentile in each category. He'll need to hone his craft at the next level and doesn't sport the same level of explosiveness as some of the elite pass rushers, but he boasts adequate hand size and arm length to get on opposing offensive linemen. Dennis-Sutton will join fellow former Nittany Lion Micah Parsons as Green Bay adds depth in the pass-rushing room after trading away Rashan Gary during the offseason and getting lackluster production out of 2023 first-round pick Lukas Van Ness to date.
