Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs underwent knee surgery to address a partial meniscus tear. The surgery occurred over the weekend, with expectations for Hobbs to return by the regular season opener against the Detroit Lions. He will miss the rest of training camp following the procedure. Hobbs, who was signed to a four-year, $48 million contract, demonstrated physicality in practice but missed some sessions due to the injury. Coach LaFleur praised Hobbs, noting his passion and competitive spirit as reasons for the signing.
"Hobbs could have played with the injury, but it could have possibly gotten worse, so the decision was made to take care of it immediately."
"The thing you admire most about him is he's passionate about the game, and he loves to compete," LaFleur said earlier in training camp.
