News

  • Inks with New England

    Vitale (knee) signed a contract with the Patriots on Friday, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Vitale spent the 2019 campaign in Green Bay, where he mainly contributed as a blocker while also handling limited receiving work. He's recovering from an early-February minor knee procedure. The decision to sign Vitale may be a hint that the Patriots do not expect longtime fullback James Develin (neck) to be healthy in time to begin the 2020 regular season.

  • Undergoes minor procedure

    Vitale had his right knee scoped Monday, Olivia Reiner of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Vitale missed the final regular-season game and both postseason contests with a knee injury, and this procedure should help him return to full strength by training camp. The 25-year-old fullback mainly played a blocking role with the Packers in 2019 but caught a few passes. He's set to be a free agent in March.

  • Finishes season on sidelines

    Vitale (knee) rushed once for three yards and caught seven passes for 97 yards over 15 regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old missed the season finale and both playoff games due to his knee injury, allowing Jace Sternberger to take a lead-blocking role. Vitale rarely strayed from a blocking role with Green Bay, and he logged a hefty amount of special-teams snaps. It's unclear if the fullback's injury will affect his free-agent status, as Vitale will be an unrestricted free agent in March if he's not re-signed.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Vitale (knee) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

    Analysis: Vitale doesn't see enough touches on offense to merit fantasy consideration, but the Packers will miss his blocking Sunday. In his absence, tight end Jace Sternberger figures to help out in that area.

  • Listed as questionable

    Vitale (knee) is officially questionable for Sunday's NFC Championship Game in San Francisco, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vitale has missed back-to-back games due to a knee injury, but he did manage a trio of limited practices this week. If available, the versatile fullback will contribute as a key blocker for Green Bay's offense.

  • Can't play Sunday

    Vitale (illness) is ruled out for Sunday's NFC divisional-round game against the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Vitale is nursing an illness unrelated to the knee issue that caused him to miss the regular-season finale, but he'll nonetheless miss Sunday's playoff contest. In his stead, Elijah Wellman will operate as the only true fullback on Green Bay's roster.

  • Availability up in air for Sunday

    Vitale (knee/illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Seahawks, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vitale was sidelined by a knee injury in the regular-season finale and kicked off this week as a limited participant on the injury report. However, an illness forced DNPs on Thursday and Friday, which may forecast his upcoming availability. The Packers will make a decision on Vitale roughly 90 minutes before Sunday's 6:40 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Not playing Sunday

    Vitale (knee) is listed as inactive Sunday in Detroit, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: With Jamaal Williams (shoulder) also sidelined, the Packers will rely on Dexter Williams and Tyler Ervin as the reserve running backs to Aaron Jones.

  • Trending in wrong direction

    Vitale (knee) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest against the Lions, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Vitale failed to participate in all three practices this week due to the knee issue stemming from Monday's win over the Vikings. His likely absence will be a blow to the team without their lead blocker, and his versatility in the both the pass and run games will be missed. With No. 2 back Jamaal Williams (shoulder) also listed as doubtful, the depth in the backfield is extremely thin behind starter Aaron Jones.

  • Still slowed by knee injury

    Vitale (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: A non-participant on the Packers' injury report for the second day in a row, Vitale's availability for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Lions looks to be in jeopardy. The fullback typically offers his most value for Green Bay as a lead blocker, but if he can shake off the knee injury in time for the weekend, Vitale may notice a slightly more pronounced role as a ballcarrier and pass catcher. With No. 2 back Jamaal Williams (shoulder) also a non-participant in back-to-back practices…read more

  • Sidelined Wednesday

    Vitale (knee) was a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Vitale appears to have picked up a knee injury during Monday's win over the Vikings. The fullback's participation in practice over the rest of the week will reveal further information about his availability for this weekend's regular-season finale in Detroit.

  • Gearing up Sunday

    Vitale (knee) is active for Sunday's matchup against the 49ers.

    Analysis: After being limited in practice all week, Vitale was able to recover in time to suit up for this crucial NFC showdown. The fourth-year fullback will pave the way for Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams against a stout 49ers defensive front. He'll also continue to have a role on special teams.

  • Could sit Sunday

    Vitale (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers, Olivia Reiner of The Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: The fullback was limited at practice all week, so it appears that there is a fair chance that Vitale will miss Sunday's pivotal contest. Whether he plays or not, Vitale is unlikely to be a factor in fantasy.

  • Two big plays in victory

    Vitale caught two passes for 43 yards in Sunday's victory over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Vitale was on the field for just 17 of the Packers' 60 snaps in Week 6, but he made the most of his opportunities, catching both passes thrown his direction and picking up at least 20 yards on both of them. He has just one carry and six catches on the season, but has quietly been a big-play threat in the passing game, averaging a healthy 15.7 yards per reception.

  • One catch in Week 5

    Vitale had one reception for nine yards in Sunday's victory over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Vitale got more touches in Week 4 than he usually would as one of only two active running backs following Jamaal Williams' departure from the game with a head injury. However, the Packers added Tra Carson and used him as the backup behind Aaron Jones with Williams out in Week 5, leaving Vitale back in a standard fullback role.

  • Gets extra work as injury fill-in

    Vitale had one carry for three yards and two receptions for 15 yards in Thursday's loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: As a result of the head injury that forced running back Jamaal Williams from Thursday's game and left the Packers with just one active halfback in Aaron Jones, Vitale had three touches after getting the ball just once in the Packers' first three games. Don't expect Vitale to be the main beneficiary should Williams miss more time. Either Dexter Williams or Tra Carson likely would assume the No. 2 running back spot in that scenario.

  • Just misses touchdown

    Vitale had a 27-yard reception in Sunday's victory over the Broncos.

    Analysis: The reception was Vitale's first touch of the season, and he nearly found paydirt with it, getting all the way to the one-yard line before being brought down. Vitale was on the field for a season-high 19 snaps in Week 3, but he remains a bit player in the Packers' offense.

  • Starts at fullback

    Vitale started at fullback and played 11 snaps in Thursday's victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Vitale played a minimal role Thursday, but he is still getting back into the swing of things a bit after missing a few weeks of training camp with a calf injury. Vitale made a number of plays during offseason practices, and head coach Matt LaFleur uses fullbacks more frequently than some other coaches, so his role could expand a bit over time.

  • Back in action

    Vitale (calf) played eight snaps in Thursday's preseason game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Vitale missed a couple weeks of action due to his calf injury, but he returned to practice a few days prior to Thursday's contest, and was able to get a few plays in before the regular season. Vitale is on track to open the season as the Packers' top fullback, and based on reports early in camp, he could be in line to do a bit more than just lead-blocking duties.

  • Sits out Sunday

    Vitale missed Sunday's practice with a calf injury, Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reported that Vitale sustained the injury Saturday and had to leave practice early. It's unclear how severe the injury is. The 23-year-old is listed as the top fullback ahead of only Malcolm Johnson, who spent time on Green Bay's practice squad in 2018.

  • Working with starters

    Vitale took every first-team rep at fullback in practices open to the media this spring, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Vitale is one of two fullbacks on the roster along with practice-squad holdover Malcolm Johnson. During his time with the Browns in 2016 and 2017, Vitale showed he could play on all four phases of special teams. While he hasn't done much offensively since being selected in the sixth round in 2016, the former college "super back" -- he nabbed 135 receptions for 1,427 yards and 11 scores in four seasons at Northwestern -- seems capable of serving as a pass catcher out of the backfield in the mold…read more

  • Catches one pass in 2018

    Vitale caught one of two targets for two yards across five games with the Packers in 2018.

    Analysis: Vitale was promoted from Green Bay's practice squad Dec. 1, and suited up for the team's final five games of the regular season. The third-year fullback was utilized as a blocker on the majority of his 19 offensive snaps and did not log a single carry, but was targeted twice in the passing game. He also played 82 snaps on special teams. The 24-year-old will spend the offseason competing for a depth role with fellow fullback Malcolm Johnson.

  • First reception of season

    Vitale caught one pass for two yards in Sunday's victory over the Jets.

    Analysis: Vitale's reception was the first offensive stat he has recorded since joining the Packers in early December. He played eight snaps Week 16, a season high, and figures to play a bit role again Week 17.

  • Signs with Packers

    Vitale (calf) signed a contract with the Packers on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Vitale has been on the Packers' practice squad since being waived off injured reserve by the Browns in mid-October and will look for his first game action of 2018. The 25-year-old had seven receptions for 46 yards and zero carries over 24 games with the Browns, and is unlikely to factor into the Packers offense beyond serving as a blocker.
