Rotowire
The Raiders are releasing Fackrell (undisclosed) from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Fackrell landed on injured reserve in late July and was unavailable for the preseason. He would've been forced to miss the 2022 campaign but is free to sign elsewhere as long as he can pass a physical. It's not yet clear what injury the 2016 third-rounder is dealing with.

Chargers' Kyler Fackrell: Secures second sack
Rotowire
Fackrell picked up two tackles and a sack in Monday's 28-14 win over the Raiders.
Despite playing under 50 percent of the defensive snaps through four weeks, Fackrell now is second on the team in sacks to begin the year. Essentially a passing-down specialist since his career year with the Packers back in 2018, the 29-year-old could have some success in that role as the pass rusher opposite Joey Bosa on an emerging defensive unit.

Rotowire
Fackrell (lower leg) is not expected to be activated for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Fackrell has been residing on injured reserve since Dec. 1, but a return to practice Wednesday provided hope for a potential Week 16 appearance. The Packers' 2016 third-round draft choice started each of his seven game outings between Weeks 5 and 12, but Carter Coughlin now stands to garner a third consecutive start at outside linebacker with Fackrell unavailable.

Giants' Kyler Fackrell: Shifts to IR
Rotowire
The Giants placed Fackrell (lower leg) on injured reserve Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Fackrell suffered a lower-leg injury during this past Sunday's win over Cincinnati and will require at least three weeks of recovery. He's eligible to return in Week 16 against the Ravens. In his first season in New York, Fackrell started eight of 11 games and produced 31 tackles and three sacks. Jabaal Sheard and Cam Brown are candidates to start in Fackrell's place, although Oshane Ximines (shoulder) has been designated to return from IR and could be an option as well.

Packers' Kyler Fackrell: Links up with Giants
Rotowire
The Giants and Fackrell came to terms on a one-year, $4.6 million contract Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
This marks the second Packers linebacker after Blake Martinez to head to New York in as many days. If Markus Golden moves on as an unrestricted free agent, Fackrell could get the opportunity to serve as one of the Giants' starting outside linebackers in 2020. Before Za'Darius Smith and Preston Smith landed in Green Bay last offseason and bumped him down the depth chart, Fackrell showed his worth as a pass rusher in 2018, accumulating 10.5 sacks.

Packers' Kyler Fackrell: Out for Week 12
Rotowire
Fackrell is out for Week 12 with a hamstring injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
Fackrell did not participate in any of this week's practices, giving the impression that his hamstring injury was suffered in Week 11 against the Redskins. He is merely a depth option for the Packers at outside linebacker, so his absence should only affect Green Bay should the team suffer any injuries.
