Breaking: Packers’ Playoff Push Get a Boost: Packers Gear Up for Playoff Run With Returning Players
The Green Bay Packers left their first taste of December football beaten, battered, and bruised.
As it turns out, however, they are not broken.
Jaire Alexander missed last Thursday’s 34-31 loss to the Detroit Lions with a knee injury.
Ditto for Romeo Doubs.
Javon Bullard and Evan Williams left that game.
By the end of the game, Zayne Anderson was taking reps at safety for Green Bay’s battered secondary.
No disrespect to Anderson, but he is a career special teams player.
As a result, the passing game led by Jared Goff and the Lions diced up Green Bay’s secondary.
When the game ended, questions about Green Bay’s immediate future looked murky.
Bullard left Ford Field in a walking boot.
Evan Williams was in the concussion protocol. So was Romeo Doubs.
Jaire Alexander had missed three straight games with what he confirmed was a PCL injury.
Now, it appears the Packers could have all but Bullard back for Sunday’s showdown in Seattle.
Here’s a look at all of the pieces that Green Bay has, and their injury status.
