Packers OLB Nick Perry (foot) is inactive for today's game against the Browns. That removes the sack leader from a shaky Green Bay pass rush. The Packers remain an upside play on D, though the recent additions at WR and spotty rushing success add scoring risk to the Browns offense.

Packers OLB Nick Perry is active for today's game against the Bills. That means he cleared the league concussion protocol over the weekend, despite putting in just a single limited practice Friday. Perry makes for an upside play in sack-friendly IDP leagues in a matchup that should find Buffalo playing from behind.

Packers OLB Nick Perry (foot) and ILB Jake Ryan (knee) are active for today’s game against the Panthers. Perry put in limited practices all week after missing last week’s workouts and then sitting out the game. Ryan missed Wednesday’s practice before limited workouts Thursday and Friday. Each player adds risk to his already lower-level IDP profile with the injury status.

Packers OLB Nick Perry is active for today's game against the Vikings after losing the past 2 weeks to a hand injury. His return helps the pass rush and adds upside to a sneaky team-defense play for fantasy owners. CB Damarious Randall (shoulder) is also active after entering the weekend questionable.

The Packers have ruled OLB Nick Perry out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks with what HC Mike McCarthy deemed a "significant hand injury," according to The Associated Press. It's not a huge loss for IDP owners but does take arguably the team's top current pass rusher off the field.

The Green Bay Press-Gazette posits that 1st-round pick Nick Perry "figures to start right away" at ROLB. GM Ted Thompson said he likes Perry's ability to set the edge against the run and rush the passer. That sounds like a starter and full-timer. Perry delivered a Pac-12 best 9.5 sacks last year. We'll see how his pass-rush ability translates from 4-3 LE in college to 3-4 OLB in the NFL. Perry is worth a late shot in IDP leagues that are less tackle heavy.
