GREEN BAY, Wis. -- David Bakhtiari's circuitous return from the torn ACL in his left knee that he sustained 598 days ago had him back on the practice field for the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
Since the initial injury on Dec. 31, 2020, the All-Pro left tackle underwent three surgeries on the knee -- the most recent of which came this offseason -- and played only 27 snaps, all in the 2021 regular-season finale at Detroit.
Coach Matt LaFleur announced Sunday that Bakhtiari had been removed from the physically unable to perform list and would be eased back into practice.
