Saturdays Roster Moves What They Mean vs

GREEN BAY, Wis. The Green Bay Packers made a couple of roster moves on Saturday. None of them involved All-Pro Tyler O'Neill Jersey left tackle David Bakhtiari being activated to play on Sunday against Washington.Here are the moves:Packers Send Josh Myers to Injured ReserveThe Packers placed center Josh Myers on injured reserve. Its been a tough rookie season for the second-rounder. After playing through an injured finger for a handful of weeks, he sat out the Week 5 game at Cincinnati. He returned for last weeks game against Chicago, only to suffer a knee injury on the opening series.After the game, coach Matt LaFleur said Myers would be out for a few weeks. With the transaction, Myers will mi s the Washington game as well as big road tests against Arizona Michael Wacha Jersey and Kansas City. Lucas Patrick, who earned rave reviews for his performance against the Bears, will move back into the starting lineup.Ben Braden ElevatedFor the second time this season, offensive lineman Ben Braden was elevated to the gameday roster. This time, it will be as a COVID-19 replacement for receiver Malik Taylor. Braden played 14 snaps on special teams against Cincinnati.Players can be elevated from the practice squad twice. The third time means a season-long promotion to the 53-man roster. However, because this is a COVID elevation, this game is excluded from the math.Scroll to ContinueWith Myers sent to IR and veteran offensive tackle Dennis Kelly (back Lance Lynn Jersey ) ruled out on Friday, Braden will join Yosh Nijman and Jake Hanson as the backups on Sunday. David Bakhtiari Remains on PUPThat Bakhtiari wasnt activated by the 3 p.m. Saturday deadline was not a surprising development. Even for a great player like Bakhtiari, it would have been foolish to run him onto the field after three practices that followed a layoff of almost 10 months from a torn ACL. All week during the portion of practice open to reporters, Elgton Jenkins was first in line at left tackle.Up next is a Thursday night game at Arizona. The Packers probably will hold a light practice on Tuesday. So, it would seem unlikely that Bakhtiari will be back to face the undefeated Cardinals, whose defense is led by edge Roger Maris Jersey rusher Chandler Jones, who had five sacks in Week 1 and is third in the league with 14 quarterback hits despite playing in only four games.A short week to get ready for Arizona means a long week to get ready for the Chiefs. With his three practices this week, one next week and the likelihood of four practices before Kansas City means Bakhtiari would have eight practices under his belt.The next po sibility would be the Week 10 home game against Seattle. Thats the game that Seahawks quarterback Ru sell Wilson is targeting for his return from a broken finger. Weve got a plan, LaFleur said on Friday. Were going to keep that plan in-house for now. No News Is Good News at Outside Linebacker?Its worth noting the Packers didnt elevate outside linebacker Tipa Galeai from the practice squad. That would indicate the Packers feel good about the health of Preston Brett Cecil Jersey Smith (oblique), the readine s of veteran addition Whitney Mercilus or both. With Smith mi sing most of the Chicago game, Green Bay had only Rashan Gary, Jonathan Garvin and LaDarius Hamilton at the position. Related Story
