It's a really good thing that the Green Bay Packers aren't playing - liny195 - 10-09-2019 on Thursday Night Football this week. That is because the team had eight players sit out Wednesdays practice as they prepare for their week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. That game is on Sunday afternoon Jason Spriggs Jersey , a relief for the battered Green and Gold, who will hopefully see more players return to practice as the week goes on. Head coach Mike McCarthy joked in his press conference on Wednesday that he might have only had 42 available players had the team played today. That is likely counting those who were limited in the first practice of the week. Most critically, there are several starters who were missing in Wednesday, including anchors on both lines. Left tackle David Bakhtiari was absent as a result of the knee injuries he suffered last Sunday in Minnesota, while defensive lineman Mike Daniels remains out with a foot injury. Joining them were a trio of defensive backs, two starters in Bashaud Breeland and Kentrell Brice plus a key reserve in Raven Greene.Meanwhile, the Cardinals had just one player miss practice due to an injury. That was versatile linebacker Deone Bucannon, who is dealing with a chest injury.Packers Wednesday Practice ReportDid Not ParticipateLT David Bakhtiari (knee)CB Bashaud Breeland (groin)S Kentrell Brice (ankle/concussion)RB Tra Carson (rib)DL Mike Daniels (foot)WR Trevor Davis (hamstring)TE Jimmy Graham (knee/thumb)S Raven Greene (ankle)Limited ParticipationWR Randall Cobb (hamstring)CB Kevin King (hamstring)WR Equanimeous St. Brown (elbow)G Lane Taylor (quad)Full ParticipationQB Aaron Rodgers (knee)Cardinals Wednesday Practice ReportDid Not ParticipateLB Deone Bucannon (chest)WR Larry Fitzgerald (not injury related)LB Haason Reddick (neck)Limited ParticipationS Budda Baker (knee)S Rudy Ford (heel)OL D.J.

A large group of free agents, draft picks Mike Daniels Color Rush Jersey , and undrafted rookies will come to training camp to challenge for roster spots and roles on the team’s 53-man roster. Over the next two weeks, Acme Packing Company will break down the roster position by position and reveal our compiled predictions for the 53-man roster.The arrival of head coach Matt LaFleur means a heavier emphasis on tight end than in the Packers’ recent past even if most of the personnel remains intact from a season ago. The team will likely continue turning over the position in coming years, but expect some familiar faces to see the majority of the action until that process unfolds.Starter: Za’Darius Smith, Preston SmithProviding for health, Za’Darius Smith and Preston Smith will enter the regular season as the Packers’ top edge rushers. Defensive coordinator Mike Pettine will shift either or both inside in obvious passing situations, so their status as starting outside linebackers is a bit misleading. Still, both Smiths will receive every opportunity to set the edge given the massive contracts they signed during the offseason. Backups: Rashan Gary, Kyler Fackrell, Reggie GilbertTwo of the Packers’ top backup outside linebackers underscore the improved depth at the position. Kyler Fackrell lead the team in sacks a season ago and Rashan Gary arrived in Green Bay as the No. 12 overall pick. In most circumstances, either would start or at least compete for the opportunity to do so. However, the arrival of Za’Darius and Preston Smith allows both to fall into reserve roles. Meanwhile https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Jamaal-Williams-Jersey , Reggie Gilbert seems decently positioned to take a spot behind them.***Released: Kendall Donnerson, Greg Roberts, Randy RamseyThe trio of Kendall Donnerson, Greg Roberts, and Randy Ramsey each offer considerable potential despite entering the league as late-round picks or undrafted free agents. Donnerson scores as one of the best athletes in Green Bay at any position, Roberts offers a strong athletic profile as well, and Ramsey comes in with plenty of experience from his time at Arkansas. Accordingly, if any or all miss the final cut, they could realistically end up on the Packers’ practice squad. |
