The Packers elevated RB Pierre Strong from the practice squad for the third time because of concern that a knee injury might keep Jacobs sidelined combined with Emanuel Wilson having a virus and missing practice. In the end, both Jacobs and Wilson were active and played, so Strong was one of the inactive players after all.
The only inactive player due to health was WR Savion Williams. OL Donovan Jennings, NT Nazir Stackhouse, and NT Bohanna, Edge Barrn Sorrell, and RB Strong were healthy scratches. The return of Lucas Van Ness to the active lits led to Sorrell being sidelined as the Packers decided to keep Aaron Mosby available for special teams.
