The Green Bay Packers announced Saturday that they’ve activated CB Eric Stokes from the PUP list and released LB Justin Hollins.

Stokes has worked his way back from a torn ACL he suffered last year. 

Stokes, 24, was a three-year starter at Georgia and was named second-team All-SEC in 2020. The Packers selected him in the first round of the 2021 draft. 

Stokes signed a four-year, $11,925,523 rookie contract with the Packers that included a $6,033,108 signing bonus. The Packers will have a fifth-year option to pick up on him in 2024. 

In 2022, Stokes appeared in nine games for the Packers and recorded 26 tackles, no interceptions and no pass defenses.
