Bakhtiari Is A Game-Changer For This Version Of the Packers

The last 21 months have been tough for David Bakhtiari. Before coming back against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, the left tackle had lost 19 of the last 20 Green Bay Packers games, including two playoff runs that could have had pretty different results had he been available. There were multiple surgeries, presumably a lot of pain, and an emotional weight for not being on the field with his teammates. And, as if all those factors weren't enough, Bakhtiari has had to handle people saying his career could be over - or worse, that he didn't want to come back that much.
