The Packers aren't planning on tendering Wilson, so he will become a free agent, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wilson served as Josh Jacobs' backup at running back last season and tallied 496 yards and three touchdowns on 125 carries, adding 99 receiving yards on 15 catches over 17 regular-season games. He also worked part-time as a kick returner and logged 233 yards on nine kickoff returns. Wilson just finished his third campaign with Green Bay and entered the offseason as a restricted free agent, but the Packers' decision not to tender him means he'll be free to sign with any team.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
A product of Division II Fort Valley State College, Wilson went undrafted in 2023 but proved to a useful depth option in the Packers' backfield, particularly in the playoffs. Wilson's power and burst make him a weapon between the tackles and a threat to break through to the second level, and he has some pass-catching skills as well. Josh Jacobs replaced Aaron Jones at the top of the Packers' depth chart this offseason and the team also drafted MarShawn Lloyd in the third round, but Wilson could still be in the team's plans.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could get more Week 15 carries
RBGreen Bay Packers
December 11, 2025
Wilson could see an expanded workload Sunday against the Broncos, as Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports that Josh Jacobs didn't practice Thursday and is day-to-day due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Jacobs missed Week 12 due to a knee injury and Wilson excelled while making a spot start, rushing for 107 yards and two touchdowns against the Vikings. The same knee apparently stiffened up on Jacobs in Week 14 against the Bears, putting his status for Week 15 against the Broncos in doubt. Denver boasts an elite run defense, but Wilson would likely handle a heavy workload nonetheless if Jacobs doesn't play Sunday.
