On Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers placed offensive lineman Lucas Patrick on the reserve/Covid-19 list. Patrick had started most of the 2021 regular season as a center, with rookie Josh Myers on the injured reserve list. When Myers returned to the active roster in the Week 18 regular season finale, Patrick was pushed to a starting right guard role, displacing rookie Royce Newman.
On paper, the Packers’ preferred offensive line for their playoff push (left to right) is David Bakhtiari, Jon Runyan, Myers, Patrick and Billy Turner. Hopefully, Patrick can make a full recovery during Green Bay’s bye week.
