GREEN BAY – The Packers started Day 3 of the draft by making their first defensive pick, taking Texas defensive lineman Barryn Sorrell in the fourth round at No. 124 overall.
Sorrell (6-3, 256) started at defensive end the last three seasons for the Longhorns, totaling 15½ sacks and 29 QB hits over 43 games (40 starts). He racked up 125 tackles over those three years, 24½ of them for loss.
The New Orleans, La., native earned honorable mention All-Big 12 Conference honors in 2022 and '23. He clocked a 4.68-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine with a 34-inch vertical jump and 28 reps at 225 pounds on the bench press.
Sorrell is the second Packers pick from the University of Texas in this draft, as he joins college teammate and first-round receiver Matthew Golden in Green Bay.
