Green Bay Packers edge rusher Kingsley Enagbare is not expected to return from his torn ACL injury until at least mid-October, according to a report from Rob Demovsky of ESPN.
The standout defender, who has been rehabilitating a significant knee injury sustained during the postseason, provided a definitive timeline for his recovery during a conversation with the media. Enagbare confirmed that he is unlikely to be ready for the start of the 2024 NFL regular season, with a return window currently slated for the middle of October. This timeline suggests Enagbare will miss at least the first month of the schedule as he continues his rehabilitation process.
The loss of Enagbare for the early portion of the season is a blow to the Packers' depth at the edge rusher position. The team is expected to rely heavily on its younger rotation players while Enagbare works toward full clearance. Per Rob Demovsky, the recovery remains on track, but the team is taking a cautious approach to ensure a full return to form later in the year.
