Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis has been placed on injured reserve, a move that could result in the team forfeiting a draft selection in the 2027 NFL Draft, according to a report by Justis Mosqueda of SB Nation.
The transaction, announced on November 11, 2026, sidelines Willis for a minimum of four games. The potential draft-pick penalty stems from conditions tied to Willis's playing time or roster status following his acquisition by the Packers.
Willis, a former third-round pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2022, was traded to Green Bay during the 2024 offseason. The specific terms linking his injured reserve placement to a 2027 draft compensation have not been publicly detailed by the organization.
The Packers' quarterback depth will now be tested behind starter Jordan Love as the team navigates the remainder of the 2026 regular season.
