The Green Bay Packers addressed a need for depth at edge rusher in the fourth round of the 2026 draft, taking Penn State’s Dani Dennis-Sutton at No. 120 overall.
Finding highlights of Dennis-Sutton won’t be difficult. He produced 34.5 tackles for loss and 23 sacks, plus seven forced fumbles and 10 pass breakups, over 55 career games and 30 starts. He led Penn State in tackles for loss, sacks and forced fumbles in 2025. Dennis-Sutton, a five-star recruit, ended his collegiate career as a two-time All-Big Ten pick and a Freshman All-American, and his 23 sacks rank sixth in school history.
