GREEN BAY \u2013 The Packers have listed tackle Zach Bako-Bewele<\/a> (knee), guard Aaron Banks<\/a> (knee) and linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper<\/a> (Achilles) as questionable for Sunday’s regular-season opener against the Minnesota Vikings.<\/p>\n

Defensive tackle Warren Brinson<\/a> (calf) has been ruled out after not practicing this week.<\/p>\n

Bako-Bewele was limited in practice but said this week he expected to play against the Vikings.<\/p>\n

Banks has been dealing with tendinitis in his knee. The starting left guard was a limited participant in all three practices this week and told reporters Thursday he expects to be a “game-time decision.”<\/p>\n

Head Coach Matt LaFleur told reporters on Friday morning it’s a “good sign” that Banks was able to practice on Friday.<\/p>\n

“Throughout this whole process, I’ve been doing everything I can to get as many reps as I can and get as healthy as I can,” said Banks on Thursday.<\/p>\n

“Taking it stride for stride and just for myself, trying to get better and get reps and get healthy, and then for the group, doing everything I can to make sure this group is as good as we can be.”<\/p>\n

Hopper didn’t practice on either Wednesday or Thursday before returning in a limited capacity Friday. The former third-round pick has not missed a game in his first two NFL seasons.<\/p>\n

Green Bay didn’t issue a game status for four players who will be available vs. Minnesota: tackle Jordan Morgan<\/a> (knee), defensive tackle Javon Hargrave<\/a> (knee), edge Barryn Sorrell<\/a> (foot) and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt<\/a> (ankle).<\/p>\n

Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell told reporters after practice Friday that safety Harrison Smith will play Sunday. The six-time Pro Bowler re-signed with the Vikings this past week.<\/p>\n

In addition to Smith (veteran rest), Minnesota didn’t issue a game status for tackle Christian Darrisaw (veteran rest), safeties Jakobe Thomas (illness) and Jacob Thomas (ankle), and tackle Caleb Tierman (ankle).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"GREEN BAY \u2013 The Packers have listed tackle Zach Bako-Bewele (knee), guard Aaron Banks (knee) and linebacker Ty’Ron…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":844518,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[357439,11977,4718,91205,13041,99],"class_list":["post-844517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-green-bay-packers-at-minnesota-vikings-2026-reg-1","tag-homepage-cp","tag-news-all-news","tag-news-injury-report","tag-news-national-feature","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844517","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=844517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/844518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=844517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=844517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=844517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
