BOULDER–After tearing his ACL last season, former Colorado Buffaloes offensive lineman David Bakhtiari has been constantly rehabbing to try and make it back on the field for the Green Bay Packers. Bakhtiari's hard work paid off on Sunday. In his return he appeared in 40% of offensive snaps against the Detroit Lions. Week 18 served as a tune-up for the playoffs, as he looks to be an integral part of a Packers Super Bowl run.
Another former Buffs player ready for the playoffs with the Packers is kicker Mason Crosby. He continued to give the Packers points as he made his one field goal attempt for 36 yards on Sunday.
