First Aid Required

The line at the infirmary keeps getting longer as the regular season rapidly approaches. KGB decided to give it a go after being out several weeks with a knee injury, but only three days later he appears to have aggravated the injury and is questionable for the opener. AJ Hawk hasn’t seen any action whatsoever for a month after suffering from an upper chest injury. His availability for the opener will be key in shutting down the Vikings running game.

James Jones suffered a sprained knee last week. Both Atari Bigby and Nick Collins suffered injury in Denver as well and had to be helped off the field. Their status is totally up in the air. The offensive line is already without center Scott Wells and now they have lost Sitton with a sprained knee. It’s hard to prepare for the premiere defensive tackle duo in the league without having a consistent line up up front.

The defensive line lost Harrell for at least six weeks and Johnny Jolly could be suspended on drug charges should the commissioner decide to go that route if he is formally charged. His court date is Sept. 16th, so his services will be available for the opener.

The Packers need to get healthy, and fast. With games against the Vikings, Bucs, and Cowboys all coming in the first month a fast start is vital for a successful season.
