The Packers signed FitzPatrick to a contract on Monday, NFL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick entered the offseason as a restricted free agent but wasn't tendered by Green Bay, and he now re-signs with the team. Across nine regular-season appearances with the Packers in 2024, the tight end secured his only target for two yards. He contributed as a blocker on the majority of his 69 offensive snaps.

FitzPatrick was targeted once and caught one pass for two yards across nine games in the 2024 regular season.
EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick got some opportunities after being scooped off Atlanta's practice squad in October, but he wound up playing only 69 snaps on offense and was an afterthought in the passing game. It remains to be seen if Green Bay will retain FitzPatrick over the offseason, but if it does, he will compete for a roster spot during training camp.

FitzPatrick (back) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick was estimated as a full practice participant Tuesday and Wednesday, suggesting he's recovered from his back injury in time to face Detroit on Thursday night. The Georgia product is expected to see minimal offensive work and serve as the Packers' No. 3 tight end in Week 14, playing behind Tucker Kraft and Ben Sims.

EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick played through a back injury in the Packers' Week 13 over the Dolphins this past Thursday, finishing with one catch for two yards while playing 18 snaps (14 on offense, four on special teams). He was limited in Monday's practice, but after logging a full session Tuesday he should be good to go for Thursday's NFC North clash against the Lions.

FitzPatrick (back) was a limited participant in Monday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old was active for the Packers' Week 13 win over the Dolphins after being listed as questionable due to a back injury. Monday's injury report indicates that FitzPatrick is still dealing with the issue in some capacity, and he could be in jeopardy of missing Green Bay's divisional matchup against the Lions on Thursday night if he downgrades to no participation Tuesday or Wednesday.

FitzPatrick (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Dolphins, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick was estimated as a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, keeping his chances alive to suit up Thursday night. The third-year pro from Georgia has seen minimal offensive work this season, appearing in four games and catching his lone target for two yards. If he's unavailable in Week 13, Green Bay's tight end room will likely consist of Tucker Kraft and Ben Sims.

FitzPatrick (back) did not participate in Tuesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
FitzPatrick has logged consecutive DNPs to open the week, and he'll have to practice in at least a limited capacity Wednesday in order to have a chance at playing Thursday against the Dolphins. The 2022 sixth-round pick played 18 snaps (14 on offense, four on special teams) during the Packers' 38-10 win over the 49ers this past Sunday and hauled in his lone target for two yards.

EDGE Analysis
Green Bay will roll with Tucker Kraft and Ben Sims as its only two active tight ends. FitzPatrick landed in Green Bay prior to Week 6 after Luke Musgrave (ankle) was placed on injured reserve, but he has yet to suit up.

FitzPatrick (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
The Packers signed FitzPatrick off Atlanta's practice squad Thursday, but the tight end isn't yet ready to suit up for his new club. Green Bay will enter Sunday's contest with Tucker Kraft leading the tight-end corps, with Ben Sims working behind him. Luke Musgrave (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Friday, so FitzPatrick could be active next Sunday when the Packers take on Houston.
