Hobbs tallied one solo tackle during the Packers' 27-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hobbs was cleared to play Thursday after being sidelined since early August due to a knee procedure. The 2021 fifth-rounder saw the field for 36 snaps (32 snaps on defense, four on special teams), 27 of which were at outside corner. He's slated to work in a rotational role behind Carrington Valentine, Keisean Nixon and Javon Bullard, though Hobbs could see the field more in defensive packages where the Packers deploy an additional defensive back.

Hobbs (knee) is active for Thursday's game against Washington, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hobbs has fully recovered from an early-August knee procedure, which prevented him from playing against the Lions in Week 1. The 2021 fifth-rounder signed a four-year, $48 million contract with the Packers in March and is expected to serve in a prominent role in the secondary alongside Carrington Valentine, Keisean Nixon, Evan Williams and Xavier McKinney. Hobbs appeared in 11 regular-season games for the Raiders in 2024 and finished with 49 tackles (33 solo) and five pass defenses (one interception).

The cornerback returned to practice last Thursday after missing a month of action following a procedure on his knee, and he could make his debut with Green Bay on Thursday Night Football.

Hobbs (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against Detroit, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hobbs ended the week with back-to-back limited practices after being a DNP on Wednesday, but he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a knee injury to play Sunday. In his absence, Kamal Hadden and Bo Melton are the top candidates to start at outside corner opposite Keisean Nixon. Hobbs' next chance to see the field is Thursday against the Commanders.

Hobbs (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hobbs upgraded from a DNP at Wednesday's practice to limited sessions Thursday and Friday, so it appears he's trending in the right direction ahead of Green Bay's regular-season opener. The first-year Packer appeared in 11 games for the Raiders in 2024, recording 49 total tackles and five passes defended, including one interception. If Hobbs can suit up Sunday, he's expected to start opposite Keisean Nixon, serving as part of the Packers' top outside cornerback duo.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that Hobbs (knee) is practicing in a limited capacity, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hobbs is practicing for the first time since July 31, as Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports, and per Zach Jacobson of 247Sports.com LaFleur said he'll "absolutely" give the starting cornerback a chance to suit up for Sunday's regular-season opener at home against the Lions. Green Bay has taken a cautious approach to Hobbs' recovery from knee surgery to address a partially torn meniscus. Friday's official practice report will reveal Hobbs' injury designation, or lack thereof, for Week 1.

Hobbs underwent surgery on his knee Saturday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
