Sorrell was one of many big stories from the draft this year, as he happened to be in attendance on day three when the Packers came calling:

Sorrell was a standout at Texas over the past four seasons and had career highs in both tackles for loss (11) and sacks (6) last season.

The Packers host the Seahawks on Saturday at 3:00 in their preseason finale and open the 2025 regular season against Detroit at home on Sunday, September 7th.
