The Packers’ best edge rusher should be back at practice this week. It appears that the Green Bay Packers  will finally be getting their top edge rusher back on the field this week. Outside linebacker Nick Perry  missed all of the team’s OTA and minicamp practices this year due to his ankle surgery in the spring, and he has been on the Physically Unable to Perform list to start training camp as a result of the same issue.
However, Perry  has been ramping up his individual work during open practices over the last week, and it sounds like he is ready to return. To that end, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported on Sunday that the team expects to clear Perry to return to practice  and thereby remove him from the PUP list. Perry  would be eligible to practice immediately.
The Packers have a pair of open practices scheduled this week, working outside at Ray Nitschke Field on Monday and Tuesday in advance of their trip to Oakland for a preseason game against the Raiders  on Friday evening. If Perry is indeed activated and he suffers no setbacks in practice, he may receive some limited snaps on Friday.
This would be a massive boost for the Packers’ pass rush, at least off the edge. Perry has the most total sacks for the Packers over the past two years with 18, including seven in 2017 (which came in second to Clay Matthews ’ 7.5). Perry’s presence also would provide defensive coordinator Mike Pettine with a versatile player who can play linebacker in an odd front or put his hand down and rush from a three-point stance in 4-3 looks.
So far, the Packers have seen just one reserve outside linebacker impress in training camp, as Reggie Gilbert  has appeared to be deserving of the #3 job behind Perry and Matthews . A full season of good health from Perry will be critical for the Packers’ defense as it looks to build on last year’s 26th-place ranking in points allowed.

I don't see Nick getting very many snaps this week but this is a start.

Indeed. Hope it lasts. Elsewhere at the position, I think Odem is playing his way out. Haven't seen anything from him to warrant a roster spot.

Time to take the bubble wrap off. Hope he holds together.

HMMMM, if we are relying upon injury prone CMIII and Perry, perhaps we should step up the negotiations for Mack. There doesn't appear to be much behind these two, albeit that I am personally rooting for VB.

We only have the window open for a few more years.

I like Nick Perry a lot. The dude is beastly, very talented, and ultimately a good (not great) pass rusher and a great run defender. He just can't stay healthy. I hope he catches a break this year (the good kind of break, not the bone kind).
