Packers Part Ways with Nate Hobbs After One Underwhelming Season

Green Bay released cornerback Nate Hobbs after one season and a four-year, $48 million deal, classed as a post-June 1 cut driven by a $6.25 million roster bonus due Friday and his underwhelming performance. The move creates a large cap hit for 2025—$12.8 million immediately, then $4 million in 2026 and $8 million in 2027—while Hobbs logged 11 games, 358 defensive snaps, a 111.1 passer rating allowed, no interceptions and two pass breakups. The team had moved him from the slot to boundary corner and has added Javon Bullard and Benjamin St-Juste to bolster that depth.

Cowboys Secure Trey Lance with $4.25M Roster Bonus for 2024

The Dallas Cowboys have decided to exercise Trey Lance's $4.25 million roster bonus for 2024, keeping him on the team for at least one more year to evaluate his potential as a quarterback. Although he will count $5.3 million against this year’s salary cap, the team will not exercise Lance’s fifth-year option, allowing him to become a free agent in 2025. Lance, who was acquired from the 49ers, started four games for them, finishing with 797 passing yards, five touchdowns, and three interceptions.

Cowboys Secure Trey Lance with $4.25M Roster Bonus for 2024

Quarterback Trey Lance will remain with the Dallas Cowboys in 2024 and receive a $4.25 million roster bonus, bringing his total compensation for the season to $5.31 million. The Cowboys won't pick up his $22.4 million fifth-year option for 2025, but they are confident in his ability to compete for the No. 2 quarterback position next year. Despite a slow start to his career, Lance will have stability heading into the next season as the Cowboys plan to keep three quarterbacks on the roster, with the third-string quarterback playing a developmental role.
