Packers ponder how to fit Billy Turner back into offensive line mix

GREEN BAY - The past two weeks, the Green Bay Packers have functioned quite well on the offensive line without starting right tackle Billy Turner.

Thanks to veteran Rick Wagner stepping in after a series of injuries to guards Lane Taylor and Lucas Patrick during the Minnesota game in Week 1, the right side has been well-manned. Wagner has held his own and made a case for being in the starting lineup.

Turner is getting closer to a return from a sprained right knee and so coach Matt LaFleur will soon have to decide whether he’s better off with Lucas Patrick at right guard and Turner at right tackle or playing both Turner and Wagner together.
