The Green Bay Packers announced the signing of former Nebraska and Texas receiver Isaiah Neyor on Wednesday, along with a corresponding move of placing offensive tackle Travis Glover on injured reserve. Neyer will wear No. 80 with the Packers.

The 6-foot-4, 218-pound Neyor is a rookie after going undrafted in April’s 2025 NFL Draft , but was released by the San Francisco 49ers on Monday after signing with them May 9 as an undrafted free agent.

Neyor started nine of the 12 games he played last season with the Cornhuskers, ranking second on Nebraska roster with 455 yards and a team-leading five touchdowns on 34 receptions in 2024.
