Limited Wednesday
Clark (elbow) turned in a limited practice Wednesday, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
Analysis: Clark suffered an elbow injury in Sunday's win over the Commanders, and he was unable to return. His ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday is a positive, but his status for the Cowboys' Week 8 matchup against the Broncos is unclear.

Questionable to return Sunday
Clark (elbow) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Commanders, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Logs full practice Wednesday
Clark (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: 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.

Racks up first sack with Dallas
Clark recorded four tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 40-37 overtime win over the Giants.
Analysis: 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.

Tallies five tackles in team debut
Clark logged five tackles (two solo) during the Cowboys' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Thursday.
Analysis: 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.

Set for Dallas debut
Clark will start at defensive tackle alongside Osa Odighizuwa in the Cowboys' regular-season opener against the Eagles on Thursday, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Clark was packaged with two first-round picks as part of the Packers' acquisition of Micah Parsons (back) from the Cowboys on Aug. 28. With Mazi Smith (coach's decision) a healthy scratch, Clark should see a heavy dose of defensive snaps in his Dallas debut and will be responsible for plugging up running lanes and limiting Saquon Barkley's impact.

First piece to Dallas in Parsons deal
The Packers traded Clark and two first-round picks to the Cowboys for pass rusher Micah Parsons on Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Clark will be the first piece of the puzzle in the return for Parsons, who agreed to a four-year, $188 million extension to move to Green Bay. As for Clark, he'll help fortify the interior of Dallas' defensive line, having recorded at least 37 tackles and 1.0 sacks in each of the last eight campaigns.

DNP due to back injury
Clark (back) didn't practice Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: 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.

Starts all 17 games again in 2024
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.
Analysis: 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.…read more

Logs eight tackles against Detroit
Clark finished Thursday's 34-31 loss to the Lions with eight tackles (six solo).
Analysis: It was a season-high tackling effort from the veteran defensive tackle this past Thursday, and he was one tackle shy from matching his career-best output from Week 3 of the 2018 season (nine). He's now up to 31 tackles (17 solo), including 1.0 sacks, through 13 regular-season games.

Gets green light
Clark (toe) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Rams, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Able to practice Thursday
Clark (toe) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
Analysis: Clark wasn't able to practice Wednesday, though he's been managing a toe injury since Week 1. Unless he downgrades to a DNP on Friday, the 2016 first-round pick should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Rams. Clark registered 7.5 sacks across 17 regular-season games in 2023, but he has yet to record a sack this year.

Doesn't practice Wednesday
Clark (toe) was listed as a DNP for Wednesday's practice session, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Clark has been playing through a toe injury he sustained in Week 1 against the Eagles. While it's not ideal that he started the week with a DNP, Clark will have two more chances at seeing the field ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams. The 2016 first-round pick has tallied 10 tackles (seven solo) through the first four games of the regular season.

Limited Wednesday
Clark (toe) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: 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.

Ready to rock
Clark (toe) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts.
Analysis: Clark was limited both Wednesday and Thursday due to a toe injury, but after Friday's full practice session, it appears he's moved past the issue.

Pops up on injury report
Clark (toe) was limited during practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: 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.

Analysis: Clark is coming off of a 2023 campaign in which he recorded a career-high 7.5 sacks, while totaling 44 total tackles in the Packers' 17 regular-season contests. The 28-year-old has been a staple on the interior defensive line for Green Bay since the team selected him in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft, missing just eight total regular-season contests over his eight-year career.

Sets career high for sacks
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.
Analysis: 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.

Analysis: 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.

Ready to go Sunday
Clark (shoulder) is active Sunday against the Steelers.

Questionable for Sunday at Steelers
Clark (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game at the Steelers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: 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.

Limited in practice Wednesday
Clark (shoulder) logged a limited practice session Wednesday.
Analysis: Clark had to be carted to the locker room after injuring his shoulder Sunday against the Rams, so his ability to practice (albeit in limited fashion) on the first day of Week 10 prep is promising. The defensive lineman has tallied four sacks over eight games this season, already tying his total across 17 contests last year. Clark appears to have a good chance of playing this coming Sunday in Pittsburgh, but if he were to sit out, Colby Wooden could be in line for more defensive snaps.

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.

Having said that, the Packers again will exercise caution with one of their foundational pieces on defense. In Clark's absence, look for Tyler Lancaster, Kingsley Keke and Montravius Adams to experience elevated playing time.

May be game-time call
Clark (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest in New Orleans.
Analysis: Clark picked up a groin injury during the Packers' season-opening win at Minnesota. He sat out Week 2 against the Lions and every practice until Thursday, then wrapped up the week with back-to-back limited showings. Coach Matt LaFleur said Clark has "made progress" but is "definitely not 100 percent yet." Clark is shaping up to be a game-time decision, meaning his status may not be known until 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Upgraded to limited
Clark (groin) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 2019 Pro Bowler was forced to exit Green Bay's season-opening win against the Vikings after fielding 15 defensive snaps, and up until Thursday, he'd been unable to suit up for a single practice since. Now trending in the right direction, the Packers will hope to soon get the versatile lineman back into the rotation. Heading into a Week 3 matchup against New Orleans' Alvin Kamara, who is coming off a 174-scrimmage yard and two-touchdown performance, Clark's presence would certainly be a…read more

Unable to practice Wednesday
Clark (groin) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Clark is trending in the wrong direction to start the week, but if he can practice in some capacity Thursday, that will be a better indication of his status for Sunday's matchup versus the Saints. Considering Saints RB Alvin Kamara looks as healthy as ever, having Clark available to stuff the run would be a major boost for the Packers.

Unable to play Sunday
Clark (groin) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Clark exited the season opener with a groin injury and hasn't practiced since, so he'll shift his focus to getting healthy for Week 3's road clash against the Saints. This is a major hit to the Packers' already suspect run defense that will look to halt D'Andre Swift, Adrian Peterson and Kerryon Johnson on Sunday. Montravius Adams (toe) is considered questionable for Sunday, and if he can go, he will likely start in Clark's place. Daylon Mack should make his Packers debut as well.

Unable to practice Thursday
Clark (groin) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Clark has missed back-to-back practices while rehabbing the groin injury he sustained against the Vikings in Week 1, putting his status for Sunday's game against the Lions in legitimate doubt. If Clark is forced to miss any time, Green Bay's run defense and pass rush will both take a noticeable hit.

DNP on Wednesday
Clark (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Instead, Clark focused on rehabbing the groin injury that he suffered Week 1 at Minnesota, per Demovsky. During his first four seasons as a pro, Clark missed just four games and capped that stretch by playing 83.6 percent of the Packers' defensive snaps in 2019. Knowing that, continued absences from the defensive tackle will signify the severity of his current concern.

Ruled out with groin injury
Clark (groin) suffered a groin injury and will be out for the remainder of the team's Week 1 contest against the Vikings, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Clark suffered the injury in the second quarter and the team will hope to have him back in action for Week 2 against the Lions. A standout along the team's defensive line, both the pass rush and run defense will suffer in his absence.

Big extension with Green Bay
Clark agreed to a four-year, $70 million extension with the Packers on Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Clark might not post the flashiest numbers on the defensive line, but he's been one of the league's best defenders for a couple years and he won't turn 25 until October. In addition to providing a disruptive presence that sets up edge rushers Preston Smith and Za'Darius Smith for success, Clark is a valuable anchor against the run. Clark also has unusual conditioning for an interior lineman, providing 879 snaps last year at a position where peers of his are often or typically held under 700…read more

Doesn't plan to hold out
Clark doesn't expect to hold out in 2020 if he isn't offered an appropriate contract extension, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. "Hopefully, I don't have to do anything like that," Clark said. "I don't think it will come to that."
Analysis: The Packers have already picked up Clark's fifth-year option worth $7.69 million in 2020, and while Clark doesn't plan on using his leverage to force a long-term deal with the Packers, he certainly didn't shut the door on the notion. Clark already has four years of pro experience under his belt at 24 years old, and he recorded career highs in tackles (62) and sacks (six) in 2019 while proving he's one of the top run stoppers in the league. This will be a situation to monitor through the…read more

Another solid run-stopping campaign
Clark, who registered six tackles and a sack over two playoff games, finished 2019 with a career-high 62 tackles and six sacks over 16 regular-season games.
Analysis: Clark recorded exactly six sacks and 15 quarterback pressures for the second straight season. The 24-year-old already has four seasons of pro experience under his belt, and he has carved out a reputation as a premier run stopper. The Packers have picked up his fifth-year option worth $7.69 million for the 2020 season, and Clark figures to be a top priority for a contract extension this offseason.

Starts week as limited participant
Clark was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a back injury.
Analysis: Clark managed to play through his back injury in the Packers' divisional-round win over the Seahawks, producing four tackles and a sack in the outing. Since he was at least on the practice field in some fashion to begin the current week, there's not yet any reason to worry about Clark's availability for Sunday's NFC Championship game in San Francisco.

Questionable for divisional round
Clark (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional-round contest against the Seahawks, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: A non-participant Wednesday due to a back injury, Clark was limited at Thursday's padded practice and Friday's walkthrough held outdoors. The fact he put in some work both days bodes well for his upcoming availability, but the Packers won't make the final call until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 6:40 p.m. ET kickoff. Clark's presence would be huge against a Seattle front that may be without its starting duo of Duane Brown (knee) and Mike Iupati (neck) on the left side.

Dealing with back injury
Coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that Clark (back) was "really limited" in practice, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Clark sat out Wednesday's practice, so Thursday's limited session at least represents a tangible step in the right direction. LaFleur also said he's "hopeful" that Clark will be available for Sunday's NFC divisional-round game against the Seahawks. The starting nose tackle will have one more opportunity to practice without limitations Friday.

Sits out first playoff practice
Clark (back) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Clark dealt with a brief back injury back in October, and this may be a related issue. The Packers hope this is just a minor problem, as Clark is one of the team's best run-stuffers. The fourth-year defensive tackle will aim to get back on the field Thursday and Friday; otherwise, Montravius Adams is in line to start at nose tackle.

All clear for Week 17
Clark (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup versus Detroit, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Despite logging limited participation in all three practices this week, Clark is clear of his ankle issue ahead of Week 17. The veteran is expected to handle his starting role as the team's nose tackle and is coming off a Monday Night Football performance in which he notched four tackles (two solo) and a sack.

Limited again
Clark (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday's injury report.
Analysis: Clark has logged back-to-back limited practices to begin the week, though it's worth noting that Wednesday's session was only an estimate and the Packers held a walk-through session Thursday. There's not yet any reason to believe that Clark is in danger of missing any time.

Sack in third straight game
Clark had four tackles (two solo) and a sack in Monday's victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: Clark recorded a sack for the third game in a row and now has as many as he recorded in 2018, when he set a career high with six sacks. He'll have a chance to break that mark when he plays in his 16th game next week for the first time since his rookie season in 2016.

Tacks on two more sacks
Clark had eight tackles (six solo) and two sacks in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Clark went 10 games without a sack after recording 1.5 of them over the Packers' first two games, but he made up for lost time the last two weeks, adding 3.5 sacks to his total. With two games to go, he is in position to either tie or top both the career-high 55 tackles he made each of the last two seasons and career-best six sacks he recorded in 2018.

Piles up 1.5 sacks
Clark had three tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's victory over Washington.
Analysis: Clark had not made a mark in the sack department since Week 2, but his big day Sunday doubles his total on the season to three. Clark has 44 tackles and is averaging 3.4 tackles per game, so he will have a chance to top the career-high 55 stops he made each of the last two seasons.
