Hunter Wohler Rehabbing Right Foot Injury Ahead of 2026 Season

Hunter Wohler is currently in rehab for a right foot injury sustained during the preseason, with the specific structure and severity not publicly confirmed. Foot injuries in NFL defenders cover a wide clinical spectrum — from turf toe (first MTP plantar plate disruption) to Lisfranc ligamentous sprain to metatarsal stress fracture — and the grade and tissue type here are both inferred as unknown from available reporting, which limits RTP precision meaningfully.

What we can anchor to is the rehab timeline context: the injury was sustained in the preseason, and Wohler is described as actively rehabbing in late April. Depending on when in the preseason the injury occurred, this places him roughly 2–6 months into recovery. For most non-surgical foot injuries at the moderate end of the spectrum (Grade 2 ligamentous or osseous), that elapsed time is consistent with a trajectory toward a September Week 1 return. For more serious presentations — Grade 3 Lisfranc disruption, a Jones fracture requiring screw fixation, or a surgical turf toe repair — the biology would require confirmation that surgery has not occurred before issuing an optimistic timeline.

The "Questionable" game-status tag is a stale offseason designation that carries no clinical signal here and should not be read as a recovery timeline disclosure. The watch item for OTM is whether a surgical procedure is disclosed: any confirmation of surgery would reset this timeline materially and narrow the RTP range based on procedure type. Absent that, the current rehab trajectory is consistent with a return in the normal preseason-to-Week-1 window, though the absence of structural clarity means confidence in that projection remains limited.
