Key Points:

  • The Green Bay Packers' Week 2 game-day roster projection includes 48 players, with notable changes due to injuries and strategic decisions compared to Week 1, such as keeping four tight ends active again.
  • Key injury concerns include defensive linemen Warren Brinson (out) and Javon Hargrave (doubtful), offensive linemen Zach Bako-Bewele and Aaron Banks (both questionable), edge rusher Lukas Van Ness (questionable), and cornerback Benjamin St-Juste (questionable).
  • The Packers may call up practice squad players Nyjalik Kelly (edge rusher) and Domani Jackson (cornerback) to address depth issues if Van Ness and St-Juste cannot play, as the team has limited backups at these positions.
  • The projected active roster maintains two quarterbacks, three running backs, five wide receivers, four tight ends, six offensive linemen, a mix of defensive linemen and edge rushers, five linebackers, four cornerbacks, four safeties, and special teams specialists.
  • Special teams contributions are a significant factor in roster decisions, with players like Benjamin St-Juste valued for their role, and possible alternatives including J. Michael Sturdivant if cornerback depth is compromised.
