Packers coach Matt LaFleur has confirmed that Hobbs underwent surgery but did not offer a possible date for his return. Per ESPN, Hobbs could have tried to play through the injury, but there would have been a risk of it getting worse if that was the route he chose.

Green Bay Packers cornerback Nate Hobbs needed surgery — which was first reported by SI.com’s Bill Huber — to repair a partially torn meniscus in his knee, per ESPN’s Rob Demovsky. Hobbs is expected to miss the rest of training camp but could be back by the regular season opener on Sept.
