Recorded the 4th-highest positive rush rate (63.3%) since being drafted in 2019 (min. 1,000 pass rushes)

Rashan Gary generated a team-high 5 pressures on just 13 pass rushes (38.5%).

Expected to play Thursday

Gary (knee) is expected to play against the Lions on Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary will not carry an injury designation into Thursday's matchup. He had been recovering from a torn ACL that has limited his snap count so far this season. The 25-year-old will look to see increased playing time and build off of last week's three-sack performance against the Saints.

Estimated as limited participant

Gary (knee) was listed as a limited participant on the Packers' estimated injury report Monday.

Analysis: Gary played in just 23 of 61 defensive snaps in Sunday's 18-17 win over the Saints as he ramps up from a torn ACL injury he sustained in Week 9 last year, but he was still able to register a career-high three sacks. Gary is expected to remain on a snap count in the first few weeks of the 2023 season and could continue to be limited with the Packers facing off against the Lions on Thursday night.

Racks up career-high three sacks

Gary recorded three sacks in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.

Analysis: With the Packers easing Gary into a bigger workload coming off a knee injury that cut short his 2022 campaign, he was on the field for only 23 of Green Bay's 61 defensive snaps in Week 3. However, he clearly made the most of his opportunities, getting to the opponent's quarterback a career-high three times. Gary made a big impact in Week 3, and assuming his snap count increases that could be a more frequent occurrence moving forward.

Good to go vs. Saints

Gary (knee) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game versus New Orleans, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: As suspected, Gary's limitations at practice over the week were mostly precautionary, and he'll play in Week 3. He'll look to make life difficult for Derek Carr on Sunday across from Preston Smith.

Logs limited practice Wednesday

Gary (knee) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Kassidy Hill of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Gary played more snaps in Week 2 (22) than in Week 1 (11), so it's possible his being held out of some drills is purely precautionary. He'll get two more chances to register a full practice before Green Bay's final injury report Friday.

Cleared to play Week 2

Gary (knee) doesn't have a designation ahead of Sunday's Week 2 game against the Falcons.

Analysis: Gary was limited in his Week 1 return from ACL surgery, seeing just 11 defensive snaps, and the Packers will likely continue to slowly raise his playing time in the coming weeks. Preston Smith and Kingsley Enagbare started at outside linebacker last week against the Bears.

Still easing back in

Gary (knee) was listed as a limited participant during practice on Wednesday's injury report, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

Analysis: Gary was limited Week 1 in his return from a torn ACL and played just 11 snaps on defense against the Bears. As for whether he'll remain limited Sunday against the Falcons, according to Wood, coach Matt LaFleur stated, "We'll see. We're still going to be smart with him. We have a long road in front of us."

Sees action Sunday

Gary played 12 snaps in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.

Analysis: Gary did not make a mark in the box score, but he did take the field for the first time since tearing his ACL last December. Gary is Green Bay's top pass rusher and will undoubtedly see his playing time pick up as the season wears on.

Looks good for Sunday

Gary (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's contest in Chicago, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary tore his ACL during Green Bay's 2022 Week 9 loss to the Lions. The 25-year-old was a limited participant in Packers' practice this week, but it seems that he'll be good to go for Week 1. In his nine games last season, Gary recorded 32 tackles, six sacks and one forced fumble.

Limited in practice

Gary (knee) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

Analysis: Gary's status for Week 1 is still up in the air as he is still working his way back from a torn ACL suffered last November. Head coach Matt LaFleur has already announced that the 2019 first-round pick will be on a snap count for the start of the season, as the team looks to conserve their top pass rusher's health for later in the season.

Limited to start year

Head coach Matt LaFleur indicated Wednesday that Gary will be on a "pitch count" to start the year, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: No surprise here, as Gary is returning relatively quickly from last November's ACL tear. The fact that he is even ready to play in the opener in Chicago is great news for the Packers, as the 25-year-old is one of the linchpins of the team's defense. It remains to be seen what type of snap count he will see in Week 1.

Set to miss preseason finale

Gary will not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official sitereports.

Analysis: Gary has missed time during camp with a knee injury, but he returned and participated in team drills Tuesday. With an eye toward having the Michigan product ready Week 1 against the Bears, it appears the team will take a cautious approach with their 2019 first-round selection.

Participating in team drills

Gary (knee) participated in team drills at Tuesday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

Analysis: It's the first time Gary has done team drills this summer, so he appears on track to be ready to play Week 1 against the Bears. The 25-year-old tore his ACL in Week 9 last season. He has 20.5 sacks over the last three seasons and is entering the final year of his rookie contract.

Yet to be cleared for team drills

Gary (knee) remains sidelined at practice and may not be cleared this week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: Gary is still working his way back from the torn ACL he suffered in November, and the team has been easing him back slowly ahead of the 2023 campaign. The linebacker recorded 32 tackles, including six sacks, while adding a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over nine contests last season.

Activated from PUP list

Coach Matt LaFleur said that Gary (knee) will come off the active/PUP list Monday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: LaFleur added that Gary will be limited primarily to individual drills after being activated Monday, suggesting the pass rusher is still working his way back from a torn ACL suffered in November. Nonetheless, this is a step in the right direction for Gary and bodes well for his availability for Green Bay's regular-season opener, Sept. 10 in Chicago.

Opens camp on PUP list

Gary (knee) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Packers on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Analysis: Gary will open training camp on the sideline as he continues to work his way back from the torn ACL he suffered in November. The defensive lineman is eligible to return to practice and play at any point this preseason, though the Packers are likely going to be cautious with the 25-year-old ahead of 2023.

Rehabbing to start OTAs

Gary (knee) didn't practice Tuesday at OTAs, but he was active on the sidelines doing rehab work, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: Gary had six sacks in the first nine games last year before suffering a season-ending ACL tear against the Lions. The star pass rusher's status for the beginning of the 2023 campaign remains unclear, but it's encouraging to see him active this early in the offseason.

Placed on IR

The Packers placed Gary (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.

Analysis: Gary is slated to miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign after tearing his ACL against the Lions in Week 9, so his placement on IR was simply transactional. The fourth-year pass rusher will finish the season with 32 tackles, six sacks, one pass defense, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across nine appearances.

Tears ACL in Week 9

Gary was diagnosed with a torn ACL after exiting Sunday's 15-9 loss to the Lions and will undergo an MRI later Monday as the Packers look to determine whether he's dealing with additional damage to his right knee, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Initial scans on Gary's knee confirmed the Packers' worst fears, as the team's top edge rusher is now done for the season. Given the timing of his injury and the timeline typically associated with ACL tear recoveries, he could be at risk of missing the start of the 2023 season as well, even if the upcoming MRI reveals no extra damage. Gary will conclude the 2022 campaign with 32 tackles, six sacks and one forced fumble in nine games.

Seen on crutches

Gary (knee) was spotted with crutches after Sunday's loss to the Lions, Nick Menner of WLUK Fox 11 reports.

Analysis: Gary was carted off to the Packers locker room in the second half of the game and was unable to return. Any extended absence from the the fourth-year linebacker would be a blow to the Packers' defense, and would push rookie Kingsley Enagbare into a larger role.

Questionable to return Sunday

Gary is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Lions with a knee injury.

Analysis: Gary suffered an apparent knee injury during the second half of Sunday's contest versus Detroit and was carted to the locker room shortly after. If Gary is unable to return for the rest of the afternoon, Kingsley Enagbare is in line for additional snaps.

Carted to locker room Sunday

Gary (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Lions.

Analysis: Gary headed to the locker room on a cart after sustaining a knee injury during the third quarter, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. While the 24-year-old is out, expect Kingsley Enagbare to take on a bigger role in the second half.

Available against Bills

Gary (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary sustained a concussion during last week's loss to the Commanders and was unable to practice Wednesday, but he was a full participant during Friday's practice session. It's not yet clear whether he'll have any limitations for Sunday's primetime matchup.

Logs full practice Friday

Gary (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's primetime matchup against Buffalo, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary exited Green Bay's Week 7 loss to Washington due to a concussion and was unable to practice Wednesday while in the league's protocols. However, the Packers' star pass rusher logged a limited session during Thursday's padded practice and upgraded to a full participant Friday. While Gary is trending in the right direction, his official status likely won't be known until closer to Sunday's 8:20 PM ET kickoff. If the fourth-year pro is unable to suit up, Kingsley Enagbare and Jonathan Garvin…read more

Back at practice Thursday

Gary (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.

Analysis: Gary sustained a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Commanders and was sidelined during practice Wednesday. However, the outside linebacker appears to be progressing in a positive direction, as he was able to work through padded drills Thursday, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Gary has recorded 28 tackles and six sacks this season, and he'll still have to clear protocols in order to suit up this Sunday night against Buffalo.

Concussion confirmed

Gary (concussion) did not practice Wednesday due to a concussion.

Analysis: Gary exited Sunday's loss to Washington after suffering a head injury. Kingsley Enagbare will likely see extra snaps with Gary sidelined.

Exits early

Gary has left Sunday's game with Washington to be evaluated for a head injury.

Analysis: Gary's absence will be a blow to the Packers' linebacker corps. If he did suffer a concussion, he will have to enter protocols, and his status for Week 8 will be in question. While Gary is sidelined, Kingsley Enagbare will likely see extra snaps.

Records sixth sack

Gary made four solo tackles and registered a sack in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Jets.

Analysis: Gary picked up a toe injury last week, but he took the field Sunday and seemingly was not limited, as he was out there for 84 percent of the defensive snaps -- his second-highest mark of the season. Gary is now up to six sacks on the season, which ties him with five other players and leaves him a half-sack out of the league lead.

Active versus Jets

Gary is active for Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: After not being listed on Wednesday's initial injury report, Gary logged back-to-back limited sessions to end the week due to a toe issue. However, Green Bay didn't elevate any defensive players for Week 6, suggesting the Packers' star pass rusher was going to suit up despite a questionable tag. Gary has recorded five sacks through five games and will look to continue his strong start against the Jets, who've allowed 12 quarterback takedowns this season.

Deemed questionable for Sunday

Gary (toe) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary landed on the injury report Thursday as a limited participant due to a toe issue and remained limited Friday, putting his status for Week 6 in doubt. The 2019 first-round pick has recorded five sacks through the first five games of the season, so his potential absence would be a huge blow to Green Bay's defense. If he's unable to suit up, Kingsley Enagbare and Jonathan Garvin would be candidates for increased snaps, while Preston Smith would step into the No. 1 pass-rusher role.

Added to injury report

Gary was a limited participant with a toe injury during practice Thursday.

Analysis: Gary appears to have picked up a toe injury during practice Wednesday after not being listed on Green Bay's injury report to open Week 6. The exact nature and severity of this injury are still unclear, so it will be worth monitoring his status during practice Friday. Gary has recorded 22 tackles and a team-high five sacks through the first five games of the season, and his potential absence would leave Kingsley Enagbare and Jonathan Garvin to step up into bigger pass-rushing roles for Sunday's…read more

Tacks on two more sacks

Gary made seven tackles (four solo), tallied two sacks, forced a fumble and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 27-24 overtime victory over the Patriots.

Analysis: Gary's first sack of the day ensured that he recorded at least one in all four games this season, and his second sack netted him both the forced and recovered fumble. With five sacks on the season, Gary finds himself tied for second in that department league-wide and just half a sack behind league leader Alex Highsmith of the Steelers.

Third sack in three games

Gary registered three tackles (two solo) and a sack in Sunday's victory over the Buccaneers.

Analysis: The Packers have played three games this season, and Gary has recorded a sack in each one. His three sacks tie him for eighth in the league with one game to go in Week 3.

Grabs another sack

Gary registered two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's victory over the Bears.

Analysis: Gary did not do much in the tackle department, but he did record his second sack in as many games. Gary was on the field for 83 percent of the defensive plays over the Packers' first two games -- a mark far higher than the career-best 68 percent of the snaps he played a season ago.

Records sack in opener

Gary registered seven tackles (three solo) and a sack in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.

Analysis: Gary did not register a full sack until Week 4 of the 2021 campaign, yet he put one on the board in his first opportunity of the new season. Gary did not reach double digits in the sack column in any of his first three seasons, but he finished with 9.5 sacks last year, and he is off to a good start as he attempts to top that number in 2022.

Fifth-year option exercised

The Packers exercised Gary's fifth-year option for 2023 on Friday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: With Za'Darius Smith sidelined for the majority of the year due to a back issue, Gary took on a bigger role and shined during the 2021 campaign, notching 47 tackles (27 solo), 9.5 sacks and two forced fumbles across 16 appearances. With Smith now in Minnesota, Gary is poised to lead Green Bay's pash rush during the 2022 season and beyond. Per Fowler, Gary's 2023 salary will be between $10.9 million and $11.7 million, depending on playing time.

Makes major strides in Year 3

Gary made 47 tackles (27 solo), tallied 9.5 sacks and forced two fumbles over 16 appearances in 2021.

Analysis: Gary increased his sack total from from 2.0 to 5.0 in his second season, and he nearly doubled that mark in his third campaign. Gary finished tied for 18th in sacks in 2021, but that does not tell the whole story, as he tied for fourth in pressures, per Pro Football Reference. It's going to be pretty tough for Gary to double his sack total in his fourth season, but nonetheless, he figures to remain a handful for opposing offensive linemen.

Tallies two more sacks

Campbell registered three solo tackles and two sacks in the Packers' 24-22 victory over the Browns in Week 16.

Analysis: After being held without a sack in consecutive games, Gary got to the quarterback twice for the second time this season. He is now up to 8.5 sacks on the season, which put him in a tie for 18th in the league with one game to go in Week 16.

Tacks on another sack

Gary made three tackles (two solo), recorded a sack and forced a fumble in Sunday's 36-28 victory over the Rams.

Analysis: Gary was presumably still feeling the effects of the elbow injury he suffered in Week 10, but that did not stop him from creating a turnover and registering his fifth sack in five appearances. Gary will get extra time to recover during the Week 13 bye, and he could be back at 100 percent when the Packers return to action in Week 14.

Suits up Sunday

Gary (elbow) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Gary returns to his starting role at linebacker. He missed just one game with the issue.

Questionable versus Rams

Gary (elbow) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Gary missed last week's loss to the Vikings as a result of the hyper-extended elbow he suffered in Week 10 against the Seahawks. If he's able to suit up Sunday, Gary would likely return to a starting role at outside linebacker, providing pressure against a Rams line that has struggled in pass protection the past couple weeks.

Won't play Week 11

Gary (elbow) is listed as inactive Week 11 in Minnesota.

Analysis: This is a difficult break for the Green Bay pass rush, though Gary's absence will allow the likes of La'Darius Hamilton to see more reps at outside linebacker, especially with Whitney Mercilus (biceps) now on IR. Gary will set his sights on returning for a matchup next Sunday against the Rams -- one that will presumably have playoff-seeding implications.

Viewed as game-time decision

Gary, who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, is being viewed as a game-time decision, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: Gary is recovering from a hyperextended elbow, an injury he suffered in last week's win over the Seahawks. While the edge rusher made the trip to Minnesota and wants to play, the Packers could be inclined to take a cautious approach with Gary and hold him out for the week with the attempt to preserve him for the long haul. Green Bay has already suffered significant attrition at outside linebacker this season, as Za'Darius Smith (back) remains without a definitive return date, and Whitney…read more

Iffy for Week 11

Gary (elbow) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports.

Analysis: Gary was limited at practice all week and appears to be trending towards a true game-time decision after suffering a hyperextended elbow in last week's victory over the Seahawks. Jonathan Garvin and Tipa Galeai would be the prime candidates to fill in for Gary if he's ultimately unable to go.

Hopes to play through injury

Gary plans to brace his hyperextended elbow in an attempt to play Sunday against the Vikings, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Analysis: Gary will undergo an MRI on Tuesday to help determine the extent of his injury, but it appears as though he could avoid missing additional time after he exited Sunday's win over the Seahawks in the second half. The 2019 first-rounder was relatively productive prior to his departure in Week 10 and totaled three solo tackles and a sack.

Comes out of game Sunday

Gary is questionable to return to Sunday's game with an elbow injury.

Analysis: Gary's arm bent awkwardly in the pile when he tried to make a tackle in the second half, and he was seen writhing in pain afterward. Jonathan Garvin should take over at linebacker.

Picks up another sack

Gary had two tackles (one solo) and a sack in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Chiefs.

Analysis: The sack gives Gary 4.5 on the season, with three of those coming over his past three games. While he isn't putting up huge numbers in the sack column, he is generating a lot of heat on the quarterback, as per Daire Carragher of 247Sports, he owns a 16.5 percent pressure rate -- the fourth-best mark in the league.

Pressure pays off in Week 7

Gary made seven tackles (three solo), recorded a career-high two sacks and forced a fumble in Sunday's 24-10 victory over Washington.

Analysis: Gary has been putting heat on opposing quarterbacks all season, ranking in the top 10 in the league in all of pressures, hits and hurries, as per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. His steady work finally paid off in the sack column in Week 7. Gary now has 3.5 sacks on the season, which puts him well on his way to topping the 5.0 sacks he put on the board a season ago.

First full sack this season

Gary tallied a career-high six tackles (four solo) and a sack in Sunday's 27-17 victory over the Steelers.

Analysis: Gary's first full sack of the season was an impressive one, as he shoved the offensive lineman in his way into Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and wound up taking both players to the ground. Gary is starting to pick up the pace, registering 1.5 sacks over the last two weeks after being shut out in both Weeks 1 and 2.

Four pressures in Week 1

Gary had a team-leading four pressures in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints, per Zach Kruse of The Packers Wire.

Analysis: According to the report, Gary rushed the passer only 16 times Sunday, so he certainly made the most of his opportunities. Gary was on the field for 60 percent of the plays the Packers defense was on the field for, which is a notable increase over the 44 percent of snaps he played in his 2020 sophomore campaign.

Clear of injury designation

Gary (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Titans, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Analysis: The 23-year-old never advanced beyond limited practice participation this week, but it won't affect his availability for Sunday's contest. Gary is performing well in a rotational role during his second season, collecting 24 total tackles and five sacks through 13 games.

Nursing hip injury

Gary (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Analysis: Gary will have two more opportunities to upgrade his practice activity before the Packers have to tag him with an injury designation for Week 16. With Za'Darius Smith (ankle/thumb/neck) also limited to start the week, Gary's availability is shaping up to be even more important than usual for Green Bay.

Racks up 1.5 sacks

Gary had four tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's victory over the Eagles.

Analysis: The 1.5 sacks matched Gary's career high and gave him 2.5 sacks over his last three games. Gary replaced Preston Smith in the starting lineup each of the past two weeks, and both players have performed well since the swap. As such, don't be surprised to see that arrangement continue.

First sack since Week 2

Gary had two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's victory over the Jaguars.

Analysis: Gary generated consistent pressure in Sunday's contest, and he was finally able to get to the quarterback late in the game, forcing the Jaguars into a third-and-long on the decisive drive. Gary, who now owns 2.5 sacks on the season, continues to play a part-time role behind -- and sometimes alongside -- Za'Darius and Preston Smith.

Clear for Week 6

Gary (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Analysis: Gary was forced to miss the last Packer game before the bye week in Week 4, so he appears fully healthy to return to action. Look for the second-year pro to return to his usual rotational role at linebacker for Sunday's contest.

Questionable Sunday

Gary (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: The 22-year-old sat out Week 4 with the high-ankle sprain and isn't fully healthy coming out of the Packers' bye week. Gary practiced as a limited participant all week, so he appears to have a decent chance of playing Sunday.

Out Monday

Gary (ankle) is inactive for Monday's matchup with the Falcons.

Analysis: Gary suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 3, and it was never considered likely that he would recover in time for Monday's matchup. The Packers have a Week 5 bye, so there is no surprise that they will err on the side of caution with their 2019 first-round pick.

Trending in wrong direction

Gary suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 3 and isn't expected to play against the Falcons on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Analysis: The Packers likely won't rush Gary back from a high-ankle sprain with a Week 5 bye around the corner, so it'd make sense to shut him down Monday. Gary's official status won't be revealed until the Packers release inactives 90 minutes before the 8:50 p.m. ET kickoff.

Misses practice Saturday

Gary (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game versus the Falcons.

Analysis: Gary practiced in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday before sitting out completely Saturday. It appears he's trending in the wrong direction after suffering an ankle injury in Week 3. The second-year pro has generated five quarterback pressures and 1.5 sacks this season, and his potential absence could be even more noticeable if Za'Darius Smith (ankle) can't go.

Hurts ankle on SNF

Gary (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints.

Analysis: The Packers are growing thin at linebacker, as Christian Kirksey (shoulder) has already been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game. Gary had one tackle before getting injured.

Starting to make impact

Gary had four tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

Analysis: Gary had a quiet rookie season, but the 2019 first-rounder is starting to come on, making a bigger impact in the box score. Per Ben Fennell of the NFL Network, Gary has generated seven pressures through two weeks -- one of which led directly to a pick-six in Week 2. Fellow pass rushers Za'Darius Smith and Preston Smith rarely leave the field, but look for defensive coordinator Mike Pettine to continue finding ways to get Gary on the field along with them.

Limited snaps in rookie season

Gary appeared in all 16 regular-season games in his rookie season and tallied 21 tackles (13 solo), two sacks and a fumble recovery.

Analysis: The Packers selected Gary 12th overall in April's draft, but with Z'Darius Smith and Preston Smith on board they did not rely on him like teams do with most first-round picks, and he ended the season playing just 23.5 percent of the defensive snaps. Gary's pedigree suggests he will play a more prominent role in his second season, but with both Smiths still under contract, chances are he will remain more situational pass-rusher than regular contributor.
