Packers' Colby Wooden: Plays in 13 games for Green Bay
Rotowire
Wooden finished the 2024 season with 20 tackles (nine solo) and two pass breakups across 13 regular-season contests.
A fourth-round pick out of Auburn in the 2023 NFL Draft, Wooden has appeared in 30 games for the Packers over the last two seasons, making one start. However, he hasn't made much of an impact in the box score, tallying just four QB hits and three tackles for loss, including 0.5 sacks, on 489 defensive snaps. Wooden will look to carve out a more prominent role along Green Bay's defensive line in his third season.

Packers' Colby Wooden: Won't play vs. Chicago
Rotowire
Wooden (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Wooden suffered a shoulder injury in Week 9 against the Lions. Even with the extra rest courtesy of the Packers' Week 10 bye, Wooden was unable to practice all week and he will miss his fourth game of the regular season Sunday. His next chance to suit up will be Week 12 against the 49ers on Sunday, Nov. 24. Karl Brooks should see an uptick in snaps in a rotational role at defensive tackle behind starters Kenny Clark and Devonte Wyatt.
