The Green Bay Packers have signed linebacker Isaiah Simmons to a one-year contract following the 2025 NFL draft. Simmons, a former first-round pick by the Arizona Cardinals, brings a wealth of experience despite inconsistent performance in his five NFL seasons. He recorded five interceptions, 21 pass breakups, and 8.5 sacks, showcasing his ability to impact both defense and special teams.

This acquisition adds to the Packers' already strong linebacking corps, which includes Quay Walker and Edgerrin Cooper. Simmons is expected to play a versatile role, likely as a subpackage linebacker who can adapt to various defensive schemes under coordinator Jeff Hafley.
