The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the
team hadn't announced the deal. The Schultz Report first
reported Wyatt’s extension.
Wyatt had six tackles for loss and four sacks in 10 games last
season. His season ended after he broke his fibula and tore
ankle ligaments during a Thanksgiving Day victory at Detroit,
causing him to get carted off the field.
Even though he missed much of the season, Wyatt still ranked
third on the team in sacks and tied for fourth in tackles for
loss.
“I know I’ve got a lot more in the tank,” Wyatt said at the end
of last season. “I feel like I got a lot more in the tank than
what I put out there this year or the past three years I had. I
know I have a lot more and I feel like this injury right here
really is going to help me get above this hump, just showing you
all what I have.”
Wyatt has spent his entire NFL career with the Packers, who
selected him out of Georgia with the 28th pick in the 2022
draft.
He has 16 sacks over his first four seasons. Wyatt has had at
least four sacks each of the past three seasons.
