  • Packers' Preston Smith: Adjusts contract

    Smith restructured his contract Saturday opening up close to $7 million in additional cap space for the Packers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    The Packers also restructured the contract of star cornerback Jaire Alexander, both necessary moves for the team to reach cap compliance. Smith was thought to be a potential cap casualty back in the pre-2021 offseason, but since then the 29-year-old pass rusher has tallied 17.5 sacks over the past two seasons and has become one of the team's most consistent pass rushers.

  • Packers' Preston Smith: Tallies another sack in win

    Smith logged five tackles, one sack and one forced fumble in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Dolphins.

    After registering two sacks in Week 15 against the Rams, Smith collected one more in the Christmas Day matchup versus Miami. The veteran pass rusher is now just two tackles away from setting a new career high in that department, and he'll have an opportunity to reach that mark come New Year's Day when the Packers host Minnesota.

  • Packers' Preston Smith: Collects 1.5 sacks Thursday

    Smith recorded five tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks during Thursday's 27-17 loss to the Titans.

    Smith's 1.5 sacks Thursday mark the first time that the 30-year-old was able to get to the opposing team's quarterback since the Packers' Week 5 matchup against the Giants. Smith now has 36 tackles, five sacks and one pass defensed through Green Bay's first 11 games, and he'll look to remain one of the team's key defensive contributors in Week 12 versus Philadelphia.
