Hooks back on with Packers
Green Bay signed Lachey to a contract Monday.
Analysis: Lachey was drafted in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft by Houston and spent all of last season on the Texans' practice squad. The Packers plucked him off waivers in mid-May but subsequently waived him with a failed physical. Lachey appears to be past whatever was ailing him given his reunion with Green Bay. He'll compete for a depth role in the team's TE corps, though it wouldn't be surprising if he begins the campaign on the practice squad.

The Texans waived Lachey on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Lachey was waived by the Texans last August before signing a reserve/future contract with the team in late January.
