Two likely practice squad elevations in Week 11 were protected by the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday. According to the league’s transaction wire, Matt LaFleur’s team protected running back Ryquell Armstead and outside linebacker La’Darius Hamilton on the practice squad this week, meaning no team can sign either player.
The Packers may need both on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. The team is dealing with several injuries at both running back and outside linebacker and will likely be shorthanded at both positions without help from the practice squad.
