The Green Bay Packers have dealt with adversity all season, and on Thursday afternoon, they released their official injury report ahead of Sunday’s matchup vs. the Cleveland Browns.

The most significant news comes on offense as Aaron Rodgers will be getting a key weapon back for the playoff stretch.

Packers’ receiver Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) was a full participant Thursday and is expected to be available for Saturday’s game with the Cleveland Browns.

The Green Bay Packers ruled out tackles Billy Turner (knee) and David Bakhtiari (knee), linebacker Ty Summers and receiver Malik Taylor (shoulder). Tight end Dominique Dafney (ankle) is questionable.

On the positive front, Green Bay could get significant help on defense as Kenny Clark back after the Pro Bowl defensive tackle returned to practice Thursday.

Clark, who was selected to his second Pro Bowl on Wednesday, was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last Friday and missed Sunday’s 31-30 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He leads Green Bay’s defensive line with 42 tackles and four sacks this season.

The Green Bay Packers head coach addressed the Clark situation specifically.

“He’s still going through the protocol,” said Head Coach Matt LaFleur of Clark after practice. “It was great to have him back in the building. It was great to see him out there at practice. Provided he clears, then he’ll play, but we’ll see where he’s at and making sure that he is, first of all, healthy, because that’s the most important thing and that he feels confident to go out there and play at a high level.”

In addition to St. Brown, the Packers didn’t give a game status for the following players who are all expected to be available: quarterback Aaron Rodgers (toe), tight end Josiah Deguara (back), running back Aaron Jones (knee), and receiver Amari Rodgers (shoulder).

Green Bay Packers final Pro Bowl selections

The NFL has just announced its Pro Bowl selections for the 2021-2022 season. And should come as no surprise that the NFC-leading Green Bay Packers have quite a few selections on their team.

The NFL announced that a trio of Packers has been named to the Pro Bowl. Those three are quarterback Aaron Rodgers, wide receiver Davante Adams, and defensive tackle Kenny Clark. The Green Bay Packers celebrated the announcement with a tribute video to the three on their Twitter account.
