Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

Devonte Wyatt is a starter at right defensive end for GB — 59% of the snaps in his best week of 6. He has an ankle injury. This week he practised limited every day the report covers. His team has not listed him on the final report. We say he plays — 99%, in a band that plays 96% of the time. We have said PLAY since 85 hours before kickoff.

The reader concurs · grade B

No new written evidence has appeared since the prior review: the club's own reports still show Wyatt a limited participant with the ankle on both Oct. 14 and Oct. 15 with no day of non-participation (P6, P4), and an opposing-side beat independently confirms he 'remained limited' Thursday while Hargrave and Moore did not practice at all (P3). The Packers explicitly ruled out Ford, Moore and St-Juste for this game and Wyatt is not among them (P4), he is carried in the active DL group rather than PUP/IR like Riley and Savion Williams (P5, P4), and a coordinator publicly called him 'ascending right now' this week (P1). Nothing in the prose contradicts a PLAY call; the only gap is the absence of the Friday report and any final designation, which keeps this at B rather than A. It would need to know: Packers' Friday Oct. 16 practice participation level for Wyatt (LP/FP/DNP) — the club report the model cites but no passage covers; Final Week 6 game-status designation for Wyatt on the Saturday Oct. 17 report (Questionable vs. no designation); A LaFleur or Jeff Hafley remark specifically on Wyatt's ankle or a planned snap-count limit vs. Dallas; Whether Wyatt appeared on the Week 6 inactive list on Sunday Oct. 18; Clarification of Acme's 'practice window player' tag on Wyatt (P2) versus his listing among active DL (P5) and his untagged listing on the club report (P4, P6)
