  • Saints' Colby Wooden: Heading to New Orleans

    The Saints claimed Wooden off waivers from the Colts on Monday.

    Wooden will head to New Orleans after being waived by Indianapolis. The 2023 fourth-rounder spent the first three years of his NFL career with the Packers, finishing the 2025 regular season with 50 tackles (26 solo) and one pass defense across 17 games (16 starts). Cameron Jordan's status for Week 1 against the Lions is up in the air due to a hamstring issue, and with Bryan Bresee (knee) on injured reserve, Wooden figures to see plenty of snaps in a starting role in 2026.

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Green light to play Week 10

    Wooden (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Eagles, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Wooden sustained a shoulder injury during the Packers' Week 9 loss to the Panthers, but the injury isn't severe enough for him to be sidelined for Week 10. The third-year defensive lineman has 23 tackles (11 solo) through eight regular-season games.

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Limited to open week

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Ruled out Sunday

    Wooden (shoulder) has been downgraded to out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    The defensive tackle suffered the injury in the first half and had to be evaluated in the medical tent. Wooden did not get on the stat sheet before exiting. Devonte Wyatt and Karl Brooks could see more time in his absence.

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Hurts shoulder, questionable to return

    Wooden is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 9 game against Carolina due to a shoulder injury.

    Wooden was hurt in the first half and was deemed questionable to return late in the second quarter after being evaluated in the medical tent. It would be a big loss for the Packers if he's unable to return, as Wooden has been a key part of the team's defensive line. Devonte Wyatt and Karl Brooks could both be leaned upon more while Wooden is sidelined.

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Jumps into stating lineup

    Wooden made a career-high six tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.

    Wooden filled the starting defensive tackle job opened up by the departure of Kenny Clark, and he fared well in what was just his second career start. Roles along Green Bay's defensive line remain unsettled with Clark being swapped out for Micah Parsons less than two weeks ago, but it appears Wooden will be afforded the opportunity to nail down a starting job.

  • Packers' Colby Wooden: Plays in 13 games for Green Bay

    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.
