Packers' Josh Whyle: Lands on IR
Green Bay placed Whyle (concussion) on injured reserve Saturday.
Whyle suffered a concussion Week 8 against Carolina and missed last Sunday's win over the Patriots. He had already been ruled for Sunday's contest against Minnesota before the Packers decided to place him on IR. Whyle didn't log a catch or target during his eight contests before getting hurt, so his blocking and work on special teams will be the primary voids during his absence.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Remains in concussion protocol
Whyle (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Whyle missed all of the Packers' Week 10 prep due to a concussion. The tight end remains in the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and will not suit up for Sunday's divisional contest, leaving Mark Redman and Jonnu Smith as the depth options behind Tucker Kraft.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Not practicing yet
Whyle (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Dominique Yates of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Whyle faces an uphill battle to clear concussion protocol before Sunday's game against the Vikings. If he's unable to do so, he would sit out for a second consecutive game while Mark Redman and Jonnu Smith continue to function as the depth options behind Tucker Kraft.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Won't play due to concussion
Whyle (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Whyle was unable to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's contest. The No. 3 tight end will be replaced by Jonnu Smith for the showdown with the Patriots.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Not mentioned in injury report
Whyle (neck) was not listed on the injury report Wednesday.
Whyle injured his neck in Sunday's 39-22 loss to Minnesota, but it appears it wasn't anything too serious. The 27-year-old is currently on track to play in Week 2 against the Jets, though he isn't expected to be much of a contributor behind Tucker Kraft and Jonnu Smith.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Questionable to return with neck injury
Whyle (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Whyle exited the second half of Sunday's contest with an all-too-familiar injury. The tight end missed some time in August with a minor neck issue so the current issue could be related. If Whyle is unable to return to the game, Mark Redman will likely take over as the No. 3 Packers tight end.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Brief absence
Whyle (neck) is back practicing Tuesday, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Whyle was absent from practice Sunday due a neck injury, but the absence was short-lived. The 26-year-old has appeared to emerge as the tight end No. 3 for Green Bay, but he will now be back to taking first-team reps while Tucker Kraft (knee) and Luke Musgrave (neck) continue to rehab their respective injuries.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Dealing with minor neck issue
Whyle (neck) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
It is unclear when Whyle suffered the neck injury, but the team does not consider the issue a long-term problem. With Tucker Kraft (knee) and Luke Musgrave (neck) still absent due to injury, Whyle's return would once again make him the starting tight end for the time being. As of now, tight end No. 4 Drake Dabney is set to take the starting snaps.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Emerging as No. 3 tight end
Whyle "took significant snaps with the starters" during OTAs and seems to be in line for the Packers' No. 3 tight-end role, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Whyle wasn't able to make Tennessee's season-opening roster last year and subsequently joined Green Bay's practice squad. He was eventually signed to the active roster after Tucker Kraft (knee) was lost for the season but didn't make much of an impact on offense, catching just five passes on six targets for 36 yards and a touchdown. Kraft recently stated that he expects to be ready for Week 1, and Luke Musgrave (undisclosed) is likely to take the No. 2 tight-end job, but Whyle currently appears to have a good chance of making the roster as the No. 3 tight end. That wouldn't necessarily portend fantasy-relevant production, though it would put him in line for meaningful snaps if Kraft and/or Musgrave needed to miss time.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Sees more snaps after Kraft injury
Whyle logged five catches (on six targets) for 36 yards and a touchdown across eight regular-season games with the Packers in 2025.
Whyle spent the first half of the season on the Packers' practice squad after failing to make the Titans' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. There wasn't a path to playing time for the third-year tight end until Tucker Kraft tore his ACL in Week 9 against the Panthers, which prompted the Packers to sign Whyle to the active roster in early November to serve as the team's TE2 behind Luke Musgrave. Whyle didn't see more than one target in any of his eight regular-season appearances, serving mostly as a blocker on offense. He will have the ability to test the waters during the 2026 offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Packers' Josh Whyle: All set for Week 17
Whyle (concussion) has no injury designation for Saturday's contest against the Ravens, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports.
Whyle will make his return to action after missing one contest while recovering from a concussion. The 26-year-old will be back in his timeshare at tight end with Luke Musgrave versus Baltimore.

Packers' Josh Whyle: Remains limited Wednesday
Whyle (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
Whyle was also deemed limited for Tuesday's practice walkthrough. The third-year tight end missed this past Saturday's overtime loss to Chicago due to the concussion he suffered Week 15 versus Denver, but he seems to have a chance of returning for Saturday's game against Baltimore, though he'll first need to clear concussion protocol. If Whyle manages to suit up, he'll likely back up starter Luke Musgrave, as fellow tight end John FitzPatrick tore his Achilles in Week 16 and is done for the season.
