The Green Bay Packers signed first-round pick Kenny Clark on Friday, the team announced in a statement.
Clark was selected 27th overall by the Packers, earning first-team All-Pac 12 honors during his final season at UCLA.
The 20-year-old is expected to compete against Letroy Guion for playing time in the Packers' defensive line rotation, during his rookie year.
Clark joined the Packers for practices this week after UCLA's academic term concluded.
The Packers finished 21st in rushing defense last season, and Clark figures to be the run-stopper they lacked in 2015.
