Packers' Javon Hargrave: Activated off active/PUP list
The Packers activated Hargrave (knee) off the active/PUP list Sunday, Weston Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
Hargrave returned to practice Sunday after missing training camp with a knee issue. The nose tackle's return means rookie Warren Brinson will likely see fewer snaps. Hargrave's return is a huge boost to the Packers' defensive interior, and the veteran has returned just in time to get some preseason reps.

Packers' Javon Hargrave: Tending to knee issue
Hargrave is on the Packers' active/PUP list during training camp due to a knee injury, Matt Schneidman of the Athletic reports.
Per Schneidman, whatever happened to Hargrave's knee after the end of last season is not a long-term concern. Green Bay will likely exercise patience with the offseason free agent acquisition, potentially giving 2025 sixth-rounder Warren Brinson some chances to work with the first-team defensive line.

Packers' Javon Hargrave: Placed on PUP list
Hargrave (undisclosed) was put on the active/PUP list by the Packers on Monday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
The defensive tackle signed a two-year, $23 million contract with Green Bay in March after getting released by Minnesota. Hargrave can be activated at any time during training camp if his injury is not serious, though the severity remains unclear. The 33-year-old played 536 defensive snaps for the Vikings during the 2025 regular season, recording 52 tackles (18 solo), including 3.5 sacks, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 16 games.

Packers' Javon Hargrave: Inks two-year deal with Green Bay
The Packers agreed to terms with Hargrave on a two-year, $23 million contract Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Hargrave was released by Minnesota in a cost-cutting move earlier Wednesday. He quickly lands back on his feet with the division-rival Packers. Now 33 years old, Hargrave remains productive after accruing 52 tackles (18 solo), including 3.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 16 regular-season contests in 2025. He figures to slot in at nose tackle for Green Bay.

Javon Hargrave: Let go by Vikings
Hargrave is slated to be released by Minnesota on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hargrave's release doesn't come as a surprise, as the team informed him of the planned transaction in early March, and a trade never seemed likely to materialized. The veteran defensive tackle stands to draw solid interest as a free agent.

Vikings' Javon Hargrave: Set to be cut by Minnesota
The Vikings informed Hargrave that he will be released at the start of the league year March 11 barring a trade, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hargrave was set to enter the second and final year of his contract in 2026, but his departure will save the Vikings approximately $10.9 million in salary cap space. The 33-year-old finished the 2025 regular season with 52 tackles (18 solo), including 3.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 16 games. Once the move is official, Hargrave should draw plenty of interest from teams looking to add a veteran defensive lineman in free agency.
