The Green Bay Packers lost three players in their win against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday: receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle), defensive end Lukas Van Ness (foot) and safety Javon Bullard (concussion). While there weren\u2019t any updates on the status of Wicks on Monday, head coach Matt LaFleur did answer questions about where Van Ness and Bullard stand today.<\/p>\n
Van Ness\u2019 injury appeared to be the most serious, as he was carted off the Packers\u2019 sideline to the locker room. Yesterday, LaFleur stated that Van Ness didn\u2019t break a bone in his foot, but that he was going to have an MRI on Monday.<\/p>\n
When asked about how Van Ness\u2019 MRI came back, LaFleur said, \u201cWe definitely avoided something serious, but how long he\u2019ll be out remains to be seen.\u201d Per LaFleur, Van Ness did indeed injure his foot on the sack of quarterback Joe Flacco. \u201cIf he\u2019s unable to go, it\u2019s definitely going to be a loss,\u201d added LaFleur about his end, who rotates in heavily with Rashan Gary and Micah Parsons.<\/p>\n
LaFleur also stated that Bullard, who had a concussion earlier in the year, was cleared by the medical staff and is not in concussion protocol. Bullard told LaFleur that he simply had a stinger, even though the team officially announced Bullard as questionable to return with a concussion during the game.<\/p>\n
Keep an eye out for these three players on the injury report this week, on top of tackle Anthony Belton (ankle) and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt (knee), who both missed Week 6\u2019s action due to injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Green Bay Packers lost three players in their win against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday: receiver Dontayvion…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223416,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[18813,18814,18811,18815,349,99],"class_list":["post-223415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-green-bay-packers-depth-chart","tag-green-bay-packers-injuries","tag-green-bay-packers-news","tag-green-bay-packers-roster","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223415\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
