Green Bay Packers defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt (ankle) will play in Week 8 according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Wyatt has been sidelined since Week 5 with an ankle injury but was able to log three limited practice sessions this week. Fantasy managers should expect Wyatt to return to his starting role on the defensive line going forward. During the first four games he tallied ten tackles (eight solo) with three sacks. The 26-year-old should bolster the Green Bay pass rush going forward.

Wyatt gets a four-year deal, fully guaranteed, worth $12.86 million with a $6.533 million signing bonus. Signing the No. 28 overall pick was one of Green Bay's top priorities following the draft. This follows the team signing its other first-round pick, linebacker Quay Walker of Georgia, the No. 22 overall pick. After speculation that the Packers would finally spend a first-round pick on a wide receiver, they held true to their board and secured key pieces for their defense early. Now they've locked them in.

Wyatt stands at 6-foot-3, 304 pounds and is a gap-attacking nose tackle that is big and powerful at the point of attack. The 24-year-old defensive lineman finished his four-year collegiate career with 49 solo tackles (12 for loss), five sacks, three passes defensed, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
