Packers’ Nate Hobbs reacts to punishment for being too physical in camp

In light of the Jaire Alexander fiasco, one of the Green Bay Packers' biggest offseason acquisitions was cornerback Nate Hobbs. While the Packers are excited to see Hobbs on the field in 2025, the team's newest defender has not gotten off to the best start in training camp.

Hobbs, who is known for his physicality, got called out by Matt LaFleur for being too physical defending receivers in practice. The cornerback's most controversial moment came on Monday, when running back MarShawn Lloyd limped off the field after getting hit low by Hobbs. LaFleur subsequently removed Hobbs from practice, a decision the 26-year-old respected as a minor “timeout” while addressing the play to the media.
