  • Nick Perry: Visiting Pacific Northwest

    Perry will take a free-agent visit to Seattle some time this week, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.

    Perry had spent the past seven seasons in Green Bay but was cut this offseason by the team to make room for other acquisitions. The USC product has has never played a full 16-game season in his career but seems to be fully healthy this offseason. The Seahawks could add Perry to their linebacker corps, as the team awaits the fate of Mychal Kendricks (lower leg), who could face jail time after pleading guilty to insider trading.

  • Nick Perry: Sheds injury designation

    Perry was released by the Packers without any injury stipulation on Tuesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Perry's lack of an injury tag upon release means that he was able to pass a physical, and thereby given received medical clearance. A clean bill of health will be beneficial to Perry as he enters the open market, but he's proven to carry an injury risk alongside his upside. The 28-year-old linebacker ended last season on injured reserve due to ankle and knee issues, and has yet to suit up for a full 16-game season through his seven years in the NFL.

  • Nick Perry: Cut after being replaced

    The Packers are releasing Perry (knee), Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.

    Already in danger of being cut, Perry's fate was sealed Tuesday morning when the Packers reached agreements to sign fellow outside linebackers Za'Darius Smith and Preston Smith. Despite notching just 1.5 sacks in nine games this past season, Perry shouldn't have too much trouble drumming up interest on the open market, considering he had 18 sacks in 26 games the previous two years. It helps that he won't factor into the formula for compensatory draft picks -- something that only applies to players that had their contracts expire.

  • Packers' Nick Perry: Uncertain to remain in Green Bay

    Perry (knee) is a candidate to be released this offseason, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.

    Yet to endure a full 16-game season through seven years in the league, Perry has proven to be a high injury risk -- and one that doesn't come cheap relative to his meager production, considering Perry's cap charge is almost $15 million in 2019. Green Bay will only save about $3 million against the cap by letting him go prior to the third day of the league year in March -- when the Packers owe the linebacker a $4.8 million roster bonus -- but the savings jumps to roughly $7 and $10 million in 2020 and 2021, respectively.

  • Packers' Nick Perry: Ruled out again

    Perry (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports.

    Perry was unable to practice in any extent this week and will miss his second straight game due to a lingering knee injury.

  • Packers' Nick Perry: Lands on injured reserve

    Perry (knee) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Perry missed his first game of the season at Seattle last week and was already ruled out for Sunday's game at Minnesota. The 28-year-old dealt with a concussion in addition to ankle and knee issues as he will finish the season on IR for the third time in his career. Perry had only 24 tackles and 1.5 sacks in nine games, posting the worst numbers since his rookie season in 2012, when he played only six games. Kyler Fackrell will step into a starting role at outside linebacker -- he already leads the team with eight sacks -- while Reggie Gilbert serves as the primary backup.

  • Packers' Nick Perry: Won't play Week 11

    Perry (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Seahawks.

    Perry didn't fly with the team to Seattle and will remain in Green Bay to receive further treatment for the knee injury he sustained in the Week 10 win over the Dolphins. Kyler Fackrell and Reggie Gilbert should see increased reps at the outside linebacker spot opposite Clay Matthews with Perry unavailable Thursday.

    Perry was helped off the field after suffering a knee injury during Sunday's tilt against the Dolphins and will remain sidelined.

  • Packers' Nick Perry: Questionable for Week 9

    Perry is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots with an ankle injury, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Perry has dealt with the ankle injury throughout the season but he has yet to miss a contest. The 28-year-old has been quiet this season with only 1.5 sacks through seven games, so the Packers will hope he is available and comes alive against Tom Brady and the Patriots.
