Packers' Bo Melton: Two targets in loss
Melton caught one of his two targets for four yards and logged a 24-yard kick return in the Packers' 20-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Melton played 13 offensive snaps and 14 special-teams snaps in the contest. The No. 4 wide receiver remains a versatile depth option for the Packers, filling in wherever he is needed without garnering much attention.

Packers' Bo Melton: Set for Sunday
Melton (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions.
Melton logged just one limited session during Week 7 prep. The wide receiver's Friday upgrade to limited after consecutive DNPs appears to have been enough to green-light the No. 4 option for Sunday's divisional bout with the Lions.

Packers' Bo Melton: Iffy for Week 7
Melton (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Melton opened Week 7 prep with back-to-back DNP's, but his limited session Friday was enough for him to draw the questionable tag for Sunday's NFC North tilt. Savion Williams would see an uptick on both offense and special teams as a returner on kickoffs and punts if Melton cannot play against Detroit.

Packers' Bo Melton: No practice Thursday
Melton (back) did not participate in practice Thursday, Weston Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Melton did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday due to a back injury that likely occurred in the Packers' win over the Cowboys in Week 6. The 27-year-old will likely need to practice in some capacity to have a chance at playing Sunday against the Lions.

Packers' Bo Melton: Nursing back injury
Melton (back) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Melton may have tweaked his back during the Packers' Week 6 win against the Cowboys, when he played 34 snaps (18 on offense, 16 on special teams) and drew a 37-yard pass interference penalty late in the second quarter before adding a tackle on kickoff coverage. He'll have two more practices to increase his participation to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions.

Packers' Bo Melton: Sees uptick in offensive snaps vs. Atlanta
Melton logged 21 of 66 offensive snaps during Thursday's 35-14 loss to the Falcons but did not catch his only target. He also recorded two tackles and turned two kickoff returns into 46 yards.
Melton played a total of 42 snaps Thursday, split evenly between special teams and offense, and his offensive snap count was fourth-most among Packers wide receivers. Despite the spike in playing time, Melton shouldn't factor into the team's offensive game plan unless a larger role opens up for the 2022 seventh-rounder due to the absence of one or multiple wide receivers.

Packers' Bo Melton: Full participant in Monday's estimation
Melton (neck) was a full participant in Monday's estimated practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Melton exited last Sunday's overtime win over the Jets early with a stinger. The kick returner is expected to be all set to practice at full capacity Tuesday as the team prepares for Thursday's primetime game against the Falcons.

Packers' Bo Melton: Signs with active roster
The Packers signed Melton to the active roster Monday.
Melton was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's loss to the Vikings. The wide receiver played 27 total snaps, catching his sole target for 10 yards on one of his seven offensive plays. The wide receiver played in 16 regular-season games for the Packers in 2025, logging four receptions for 107 yards and a touchdown as well as five rushing attempts for 35 yards.

Packers' Bo Melton: Cleared to return
Melton (cramps) has returned to Sunday's game against the Vikings, per the CBS Sports broadcast.
Melton briefly left Sunday's game due to cramping, but he was back in the game in the fourth quarter and returned a kickoff for 19 yards. Most of Melton's playing time this year figures to be on special teams as a returner.

Packers' Bo Melton: Exits game with cramps
Melton (cramps) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Minnesota.
Melton hauled in his lone target for 10 yards and turned three kickoff returns into 105 yards prior to his exit. Kaleb Johnson figures to be the primary returner on kickoffs if Melton is not cleared to return.

Packers' Bo Melton: Elevated for Week 1
The Packers elevated Melton from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Melton is all set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Vikings as a temporary replacement for Savion Williams (ankle) as he recovers from his injury on IR. Melton played in 16 regular-season games for the Packers in 2025, catching four passes for 107 yards and a touchdown. The wide receiver also played 186 special teams snaps, making him a versatile elevation for the Week 1 divisional showdown.

Bo Melton: Cut, but expected back on practice squad
The Packers released Melton on Friday.
Because Melton is a vested veteran and not subject to waivers at this point in the season, he's expected to sign back on Green Bay's practice squad, from which the team will be able to elevate him Saturday ahead of Sunday's game at Minnesota. Through three NFL campaigns, the wide receiver has posted a combined 28-416-2 line on 54 targets in 38 regular-season contests.

Packers' Bo Melton: Quiet in preseason finale
Melton did not catch either of his targets in Friday's preseason win over Arizona.
The Packers held most of their key players out of the contest, so Melton's inclusion in the game could indicate that he's not an absolute lock to make the 53-man roster. If that's the case, it may not help that undrafted rookie J. Michael Sturdivant broke out a 6-112-1 receiving line Friday, though it's generally unwise to read too deeply into preseason performances. Still, Melton had a pretty poor exhibition slate, catching just two of seven targets for 14 yards. Melton worked often as a kick returner last season, but free-agent signee Skyy Moore appears set to take over that role in 2026. The odds still seem to be in favor of Melton surviving cutdown day, and if he does, he'll likely work mostly on special teams during the regular season.

Packers' Bo Melton: Signs tender with Green Bay
Melton (knee) signed his exclusive-rights tender with the Packers on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Melton is set to receive $1.145 million in 2026 after playing 16 regular-season contests for the Packers in 2025. The wide receiver and special teams piece suffered a knee injury at the end of the 2025 regular season, but he's healthy and ready to go for the start of the 2026 offseason.

Packers' Bo Melton: Should be healthy for OTAs
Melton (ankle) said he is expected to need roughly one month to recover from the injury he suffered Week 18 and may have been a candidate to return to action had Green Bay advanced to Super Bowl LX, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Melton declined to speculate on whether he'll enter the 2026 offseason working primarily at cornerback or wide receiver, but he noted that he expects to have that discussion with the Packers' coaching staff. He was moved to cornerback last offseason but contributed mostly as a backup receiver for Green Bay during the 2025 campaign. Melton will be a restricted free agent this offseason, giving the Packers the right to match any contract offers he receives from other teams or potentially receive draft pick compensation should he sign elsewhere.
