Another former Georgia standout has an NFL contract.

Quay Walker and the Green Bay Packers agreed to terms on a four-year, $13.8 million following the 2022 NFL Draft, according to Pro Football Network’s Aaron Wilson. The deal also includes a $7.2 million signing bonus and a fifth-year club option. That means the Packers have contracts set with both first round picks after Devonte Wyatt agreed to terms with the team earlier Thursday.

Green Bay drafted Walker as the No. 22 overall pick in the first round of the draft last week after he played a pivotal role in Georgia’s first national championship in 40 years. In his four years with the Bulldogs, Walker had 125 total tackles and 5.0 sacks as he turned himself into a first-round talent under Kirby Smart’s watch.

Out of high school, Walker arrived at UGA as a five-star recruit and the No. 3 linebacker prospect in the country from the Class of 2018, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

The Packers used both first-round picks on former Georgia defenders, selecting Wyatt as the No. 28 overall pick in the draft.

The contract includes a fifth-year option for the Pack to keep the former Georgia Bulldog in Green Bay through 2026. Wyatt also receives a $6.53 million signing bonus.

The Packers picked the defensive lineman with their second pick in the first round on Thursday night at No. 28 overall.
