Packers release inactives list ahead of matchup vs Detroit Lions
The Green Bay Packers have revealed its inactive list ahead of Sunday’s game on the road against the Detroit Lions.
Prior to Sunday, ILB De’Vondre Campbell (knee) and S Shemar Jean-Charles (ankle) were ruled out by the Packers due to their lack of practice time this week. For Detroit, CB Chase Lucas, SAF Ifeatu Melifonwu, OT Matt Nelson and CB AJ Parker were all ruled out prior for the same reasons.
Relatedly, David Bakhtiari, Elgton Jenkins, Allen Lazard, Preston Smith and Christian Watson are all active vs. the Lions. Detroit’s star running back De’Andre Swift will also be active Sunday after being deemed questionable all week.
Both teams are coming off losses heading into the game. The Packers (3-5) lost to the Buffalo Bills 27-17 on last week’s Sunday Night Football, while the Lions (1-6) fell to the Miami Dolphins 31-27 in heartbreaking fashion.
The Packers will look to snap a three-game losing streak, while the Lions have lost five games in a row after starting the season out 1-1, and nearly took down the now-undefeated Philadelphia Eagles in the season opener 38-35.
This will be the first matchup of the season between the NFL North rivals this season. The last time these two squads matched up was on Jan. 9 last season, where Detroit ousted Green Bay 37-30 – one of the Packers’ four losses during the 2021 regular season.
Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. ET live on Fox and NFL+, and the Packers will enter the afternoon as four-point favorites.
