Packers Injury Report: Another starting offensive lineman is hurt
Key Points:
- Green Bay Packers right tackle Zach Bako-Bewele is out for the 2026 season due to a full patellar tendon tear, forcing the team to rely on backup Anthony Belton, who now has a shoulder injury.
- The Packers’ offensive line is dealing with multiple injuries, with four of the top seven linemen listed as limited or non-participants, creating concerns just two days before their Thursday Night Football game against the Atlanta Falcons.
- Other injured Packers include defensive linemen Anthony Campbell (ankle) and Javon Hargrave (knee/concussion), linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (shoulder), and cornerback Brandon Cisse (wisdom teeth), with several players limited in practice.
- In contrast, the Falcons had a full practice on Tuesday and only one player, edge rusher Samson Ebukam, was limited; however, they placed starting cornerback A.J. Terrell on injured reserve earlier the same day.
- The Packers’ injury challenges and limited practice time may impact their readiness as they prepare to face a relatively healthier Falcons team on Thursday night.
