The Green Bay Packers have lost running back Emanuel Wilson, who signed a one-year deal with the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks after Green Bay failed to make a qualifying offer. However, the team has announced the signing of cornerback Benjamin St-Juste, who had 37 total tackles and an interception for the Los Angeles Chargers last season.
Why it matters
The departure of Wilson, a popular backup running back who had over 1,000 yards in three seasons, thins out the Packers' backfield depth. Meanwhile, the addition of St-Juste aims to bolster Green Bay's secondary as the team looks to improve its defense for the upcoming season.
The details
Wilson, 26, became a free agent after the Packers failed to make a qualifying offer. He was a reliable backup to lead running back Josh Jacobs. St-Juste, 28, joins the Packers after spending the 2022 season with the Los Angeles Chargers, where he recorded 37 total tackles and one interception.
- Wilson signed a one-year deal with the Seattle Seahawks on March 13, 2026.
- The Packers announced the signing of CB Benjamin St-Juste on March 13, 2026.

Emanuel Wilson
A 26-year-old running back who spent the last three seasons as a backup in Green Bay, rushing for over 1,000 yards.

The takeaway
