Wagner (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
Billy Turner slid over from his right guard spot to replace Wagner at right tackle, while Lucas Patrick took over Turner's spot at guard. Wagner was carted off, so he seems more likely than not to sit out the remainder of this snowy Sunday night.

Wagner (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner injured his knee last week against the 49ers, but he's shaken it off and will suit up Sunday. David Bakhtiari is back from a chest injury, however, so Wagner will revert to a backup role.

Wagner (knee) is ruled out to return to Thursday's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner's absence will be an even more notable loss than usual for the Packers, as David Bakhtiari (chest) is already inactive. Elgton Jenkins will move over to right tackle while Jon Runyan starts at left guard.

Wagner (knee) is active for Thursday's game in San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Wagner had been officially tagged as questionable for Thursday Night Football, but he's managed to make enough progress in his recovery to suit up. With David Bakhtiari (chest) unavailable, Wagner stands to draw the start at right tackle while Billy Turner shifts over to the left side.

Wagner agreed to sign with the Packers on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's a strong hint that the Packers don't expect to re-sign right tackle Bryan Bulaga, who profiles as one of the top linemen on the free-agent market. Wagner was once viewed similarly, but he was a bit of a disappointment in his three seasons with the Lions, eventually leading to his release last week. The 30-year-old likely will start at right tackle for the Packers, though it's possible he operates as a swing tackle or guard if the team does end up locking down Bulaga.

The Lions have released Wagner, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
By releasing the offensive tackle, the Lions have freed up about $6.1 million in salary cap space for the coming season. The 30-year-old, who the Ravens took in the fifth round of the 2013 NFL Draft, originally joined the Lions back in 2017, when he inked a five-year, $47.5 million free-agent deal with the team.
