Green Bay Packers vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Wednesday injury report
Ahead of their Sunday matchup against the Buccaneers this week, the Packers have provided their Wednesday injury report. Both teams come into the week of practice with a banged up roster, as a total of 19 players made the injury list. For Green Bay, the health of tackle David Bakhtiari continues to be a question as his recovery continues.
Bakhtiari and Randall Cobb were the only two Green Bay players to not practice on Wednesday, with Cobb being out due to illness. Limited on Wednesday were a handful of key offensive names for the Packers — Elgton Jenkins, Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis and Sammy Watkins.

While Green Bay is dealing with a number of injuries to their offense, Tampa Bay has one of the longest injury report lists in the league this week. Chris Godwin and Julio Jones are both currently out of practice with their injuries, and the Buccaneers’ recent signing of Cole Beasley might help alleviant their concerns at the wideout position. Tampa Bay currently has five receivers either out or limited in practice on Wednesday.
As for the rest of their personnel battling injury, tackle Donovan Smith’s elbow kept him from practice, and the recent signing of tackle Justin Skule to the practice squad could be a big addition. Skule entered the league as a sixth-round draft pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 2019, and played heavy minutes in their offense before suffering an ACL tear last year and missing the entire 2021 season.
