The availability of several key players for the Green Bay Packers to start the postseason will remain in doubt – at least publicly – until Friday for some and Saturday for others.
Coach Matt LaFleur provided only surface-level updates on Thursday.
The Packers will get back receiver Randall Cobb, who is expected to be activated from injured reserve on Thursday, and right tackle Billy Turner, who has practiced all week and is “good to go,” per LaFleur.
But the rest? It’s still unclear.
Left tackle David Bakhtiari and cornerback Jaire Alexander will be listed as questionable to play, receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling will be doubtful to play, and outside linebackers Za’Darius Smith and Whitney Mercilus will only play if they are activated from injured reserve on Friday.
