Gary finished the 2024 season with 47 tackles (26 solo), including 7.5 sacks, one pass breakup, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season contests. Gary started all 17 games for Green Bay and matched his previous career high with his 47 tackles. The 2019 first-rounder has logged at least 5.0 sacks in five consecutive seasons and is up to 39.0 for his career. Gary was named to his first Pro Bowl this past season and has three years left on a four-year, $96 million extension he signed with the Packers in October of 2023. Gary is equally as good defending the run as he is at rushing the passer off the edge for Green Bay.
Gary logged three tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Green Bay's 34-31 loss to Detroit. Gary got to Jared Goff late in the first quarter for a three-yard loss, which led to the Lions punting on the next play. Gary logged 2.5 sacks over the Packers' first nine games of the regular season, but in the four games since the Week 10 bye he's tallied 3.0 sacks. He'll look to add to his total in Week 15 against Geno Smith and the Seahawks on Sunday, Dec. 15.
Gary recorded five total tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Texans. Gary has had an underwhelming start to the Packers' 2024 campaign, having recorded just 14 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended before Sunday's win. However, his performance in Week 7 suggests he may be returning to his form from the previous two seasons. Gary is on pace to have just over 36 pressures across 17 regular-season games this year, which would be his lowest total since his rookie season in 2019. Expect the Michigan product to continue serving as Green Bay's top edge rusher again in Week 8, when the Packers travel to Jacksonville.
Gary picked up three tackles (one solo) and a sack in Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles. Gary had not recorded a full sack since Week 12 of last season, but he snapped that streak in his first opportunity to do so in the current campaign. Gary will play with his hand in the dirt more frequently in 2024, as the Packers transitioned from a 3-4 to a 4-3 defense over the offseason.
