Packers dealing with 6 new injuries coming out of Week 1 win over Lions

The Green Bay Packers play on "Thursday Night Football" in Week 2, so the first injury report of the week arrived on Monday. And Matt LaFleur's team is dealing with six new injuries coming out of Sunday's 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field.

According to the injury report, the following players were new additions to start Week 2:

  1. RT Zach Tom (oblique)

  2. LG Aaron Banks (groin/ankle)

  3. WR Matthew Golden (ankle)

  4. DE Brenton Cox Jr. (groin)

  5. CB Bo Melton (shoulder)

  6. P Daniel Whelan (right knee)

Any injury is a significant one during a short week, when recovery is paramount and a player simply has less time to get over an injury and be ready to play in a game.
