The Packers will miss Tyler Ervin in Week 6.

Tyler Ervin helped save the Green Bay Packers‘ return game last season after they were on pace for record-low numbers.

With Ervin ruled out of Sunday’s game versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, there is some concern on special teams. With no obvious replacement for Ervin as the returner, the Packers will just be hoping for no mistakes on special teams.

Last season, Ervin returned 11 punts for 106 yards, averaging 9.6 yards per return.
