Cowboys' Kenny Clark: Logs full practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Clark (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Clark did not return to Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bears after suffering an ankle injury in the second half, finishing with one assisted tackle while playing 34 defensive snaps. However, Clark's absence from Wednesday's practice report indicates that the 2016 first-rounder will play in Sunday's contest against the Packers, who traded him to the Cowboys along with two first-round picks in exchange for Micah Parsons in late August.

Cowboys' Kenny Clark: Racks up first sack with Dallas
Rotowire
Clark recorded four tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 40-37 overtime win over the Giants.
The former Packer racked up his first sack as a Cowboy when he brought down Russell Wilson just before halftime, helping to force a Giants punt. Clark has looked good through two games in the middle of the Dallas defensive line, collecting nine tackles (four solo), and he appears fully recovered from the foot issue that limited his production in 2024.

Cowboys' Kenny Clark: Tallies five tackles in team debut
Rotowire
Clark logged five tackles (two solo) during the Cowboys' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Thursday.
Clark made his first appearance in a Cowboys' jersey Thursday after being traded by the Packers in a package that returned Micah Parsons (back). Clark got the start at defensive tackle and played a key role in limiting Saquon Barkley to just 60 rushing yards on 18 carries. Clark will have additional time to acclimate to the Cowboys' defensive playbook ahead of their Week 2 matchup against the Giants on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Packers' Kenny Clark: DNP due to back injury
Rotowire
Clark (back) didn't practice Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
This is the first time Clark's practice participation has been impacted by an injury in 2025. Assuming Clark regains health in time for the Sept. 7 regular-season opener against the Lions, he's set to reprise a starting role on the interior of Green Bay's defensive line after starting all 17 regular-season games for the Packers in 2024.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Starts all 17 games again in 2024
Rotowire
Clark finished the 2024 season with 37 tackles (20 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two pass breakups and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season contests.
The 29-year-old started all 17 games for the third straight season, but Clark saw his playing time dip to 63 percent of the defensive snaps, his lowest mark since his 2016 rookie campaign. Clark's counting stats also took a predictable hit with the decreased snap share, as his 37 tackles and 1.0 sacks were Clark's fewest since his rookie year. Clark signed a three-year, $64 million extension through 2027 just last summer, and he's set to carry a $20.3 million cap number during the 2025 season. Green Bay will hope for an increase in production from Clark in what will be his age-30 campaign.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Clark (toe) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Clark was able to play through his toe issue in the Packers' Week 2 win over the Colts, so his limited participation Wednesday is most likely precautionary. The 28-year-old has recorded five total tackles across Green Bay's two games this season, and he'll likely suit up in Week 3 unless his participation downgrades Thursday or Friday.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Pops up on injury report
Rotowire
Clark (toe) was limited during practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Clark played 73 percent of the Packers' defensive snaps in their loss to the Eagles last Friday but seemingly picked up a toe injury in the process. The team is likely taking it easy on the veteran, but his practice status Thursday and Friday could be worth monitoring to gauge his chances to play in Sunday's game against the Colts.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Sets career high for sacks
Rotowire
Clark tallied 44 tackles (22 solo), a career-high 7.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and three pass deflections over 17 games in the 2023 regular season.
Clark had not recorded more than 6.0 sacks in a season, but he surpassed that mark in his eighth go-around as a professional. He appeared in every game the last two seasons and will turn just 28 years old in October, so he figures to remain a force up front for the Packers.

Rotowire
Clark recorded four tackles (three solo), including two sacks, and a pass deflection in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Buccaneers.
Clark had recorded only a half-sack over his previous six appearances, but he made up for lost time in a big way in Week 15 and pushed his season total to a career-high 6.5 sacks in the process. He will continue playing a prominent role on Green Bay's defensive line the rest of the way.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Questionable for Sunday at Steelers
Rotowire
Clark (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game at the Steelers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Clark was limited at practice during the week, and now he's in jeopardy of missing his first game this season with a shoulder injury he sustained in Week 9 versus the Rams. If he's sidelined, 2021 fifth-rounder Tedarrell Slaton will likely start at defensive tackle in Week 10.

Packers' Kenny Clark: Has back injury
Rotowire
Clark is not practicing Monday due to a back injury, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.
Clark didn't suit up for Green Bay's preseason opener against the Bengals, and his status appears uncertain for Saturday's exhibition match against the Patriots as well. The veteran defensive tackle is a key component of the Packers' starting defense, so the team will undoubtedly prioritize getting him healthy for Week 1. Tedarrell Slaton and Jonathan Ford should handle more practice reps in the meantime.

Clark finished behind inside linebacker Krys Barnes as the Packers' second-leading tackler against Detroit.

Packers' Kenny Clark: No injury designation for Sunday
Rotowire
Clark doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com reports.
Clark popped up on the injury report Thursday as a limited participant due to a groin injury and was limited again Friday. Nonetheless, the defensive tackle will still be good to go for Sunday's matchup with Tampa Bay. Through two games, Clark has recorded five tackles across 78 defensive snaps.
Clark (groin) was listed as a limited participant on the Packers' practice report Thursday.
Although Clark was able to play 88 percent of the team's defensive snaps during Sunday's game against the Bears, he was limited during Thursday's practice with an apparent groin injury. The severity of the issue is unclear, but expect Friday's practice report to provide more clarity regarding the 314-pounder's Week 3 availability against the Buccaneers. If Clark is ruled inactive, Devonte Wyatt and Tedarrell Slaton are candidates to take on expanded roles Sunday against Tampa Bay.

Rotowire
Clark was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
It's not yet known whether Clark has tested positive for the virus or whether he's considered a close contact. However, he'll likely be sidelined Sunday against the Ravens because he was placed on the list so late in the week. Tyler Lancaster and Tedarrell Slaton are the candidates to fill in for an absent Clark this weekend.

Rotowire
Clark had five tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.
Clark's tackle numbers took a dip last season, but he got off to a good start in that regard in Week 1, as the five stops he recorded were over a full tackle more than the 3.9 tackles he averaged while making a career-high 62 stops in 2019.
