Devonte Wyatt becomes first NFL draft first-rounder to sign rookie contract

The Green Bay Packers picked Georgia defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt with the No. 28 selection in the 2022 NFL draft. Wyatt is Green Bay’s third straight first round pick from the Georgia football program.

Devonte Wyatt and teammate Quay Walker, who was the Packers’ selection at No. 22, will look to replicate some of their collegiate success in the NFL.

Now, Wyatt has signed a four-year, fully guaranteed $12.86 million contract. Wyatt will receive a $6.53 million signing bonus. His deal is typical for the scaled rookie contracts.
