Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs expected to miss rest of training camp with knee injury: Report

Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs is expected to miss the rest of training camp after undergoing surgery to repair a meniscus tear, ESPN reported Tuesday. He could return in time for the Packers' regular-season opener against the Detroit Lions on Sept. 7, per ESPN.

"I'm not going to put a timetable on it," head coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday. "But unfortunately he had to have something cleaned up. We're hoping to get him back here sooner than later."

Hobbs, 26, was one of the Packers' biggest free agent acquisitions this offseason. They signed him to a four-year, $48 million deal in March.
