Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari was a non-participant in practice on Wednesday. One week after head coach Matt LaFleur stated that Bakhtiari would not practice in back-to-back practices, even when he was healthy enough to play in games, LaFleur responded, “I have no idea,” to the question of if Bakhtiari will play this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
In all likelihood, Yosh Nijman will probably start at left tackle for the third time this season and the 11th time in his NFL career this Sunday. Earlier today, LaFleur said there would be no changes in the offensive gameplan if either Nijman or Bakhtiari start at the position, as Nijman has played well as a replacement.
