Packers place rookie tight end Deguara on injured reserve

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers rookie tight end Josiah Deguara has been placed on injured reserve.

The Packers announced the move Tuesday. They also placed center Jake Hanson on injured reserve-practice squad and signed wide receiver Kalija Lipscomb to the practice squad.

Deguara injured his knee in the closing stages of the Packers’ 30-16 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Oct. 5. Packers coach Matt LaFleur had said the day after the game that Deguara’s injury “looks to be a pretty bad one.”

The third-round pick from Cincinnati has appeared in two games and caught one pass for 12 yards.
