Muhammad Wilkerson is a Packers project now.

Green Bay added to its free-agency splash Tuesday by reaching an agreement with Wilkerson, the once-promising defensive end the Jets released Feb. 28. Wilkerson’s new deal is reportedly for one year and $5 million, after his days with the Jets became numbered just two years into a five-year, $86 million contract he signed in 2016.

The Packers locked down Wilkerson after landing an intriguing target for Aaron Rodgers in tight end Jimmy Graham. The deal, reportedly for three years, makes up for the loss of longtime wide receiver Jordy Nelson, whom it was announced Green Bay was releasing almost immediately after the Graham news broke.

Now the Green Bay defense, which finished last season among the bottom 10 in yards allowed per game (348.9), gets a one-time Pro Bowler in Wilkerson, who made his mark on the league with two seasons of 10-plus sacks — 10.5 in 2013 and 12 in 2015, the year he made the Pro Bowl. Wilkerson cashed in after that monster season, with the Jets viewing the 6-foot-4, 315-pound New Jersey native as a key piece to their fearsome defensive line.

It all went downhill from there.

Wilkerson compounded his struggles on the field — his sack numbers dipped to 4.5 in 2016 and 3.5 last year while dealing with various injuries — with questionable behavior off of it. His tendency for being late to meetings throughout his career reared its ugly head in 2017, with the Jets ultimately ruling him inactive for the final three games of the season.

Wilkerson, 28, has a chance to rewrite the script under defensive coordinator Mike Pettine, who served in the same role with the Jets in Wilkerson’s first two seasons.
