Barryn Sorrell: Everything you need to know

Sorrell recorded 15 tackles (seven solo) including 1.5 sacks and a fumble recovery in 14 regular-season games with Green Bay in 2025. Micah Parsons (knee) and Rashan Gary played the lion's share of the Packers' available snaps at defensive end in 2025, and Sorrell logged just three games with more than 15 defensive snaps, including Green Bay's wild-card loss at Chicago. With all of Parsons, Gary and Lukas Van Ness on track to be under contract with the Packers again in 2026, it's likely Sorrell will still be playing in a rotational role in his second year as a pro. Though with Parsons returning from a December ACL tear, he should see at least a few more opportunities.

Sorrell (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Thursday's contest against the Commanders, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website reports. Sorrell suffered a knee injury in the team's second preseason contest in mid-August, which forced him to miss both the team's preseason finale against Seattle and the regular-season opener versus the Lions. He is now a full go ahead of Week 2, and he'll look to make a splash in his NFL debut.

Sorrell (knee) was listed as a limited on Monday's practice estimation, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Sorrell was injured during the preseason and missed Green Bay's Week 1 opener against the Lions. After being limited at the end of the practice week last week, Sorrell would seem to be nearing a return. It's unclear if he'll be available to make his regular-season NFL debut this coming Thursday night against Washington.
