2026 Projections
Set to be released by Packers
The Packers will release Hobbs (knee) after the start of the new league year, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Despite inking a four-year, $48 million deal with the Packers in March of 2025, Hobbs' time in Green Bay has come to an end after just one season. The Illinois product struggled to stay on the field and finished the year on IR due to an MCL tear. Across 11 appearances in 2025, Hobbs logged 356 defensive snaps and tallied 27 total tackles and two passes defensed (all career lows). While the 26-year-old's release does not become official until June 1, he's expected to be coveted by teams in need of secondary help ahead of next season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2023
After spending the first four seasons of his career with the Raiders, Hobbs signed a multi-year pact with the Packers this offseason. Injuries cost Hobbs nearly a full season of games over the last three years, but if he stays healthy, his contract dictates that he'll see regular action in Green Bay's secondary.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Solid chance of being traded
Dan Graziano and Ben Solak of ESPN.com suggest Hobbs has a solid chance of being traded this offseason.
ANALYSIS
The 2021 fifth-round pick of the Raiders signed with the Packers as a free agent last offseason, but he recorded a career-low 27 tackles across 11 regular-season games in an injury-shortened campaign. Graziano points out Hobbs' ideal fit is as a slot cornerback, a position Green Bay is already well-stocked in. Considering Hobbs had interest from several teams last offseason and has no guaranteed money on the three remaining years of his contract, a trade could be in the mutual interest of both parties.
