Packers add pair of offensive linemen to injury report on Thursday

The Green Bay Packers added offensive linemen Rasheed Walker and Jordan Morgan to the injury report on Thursday with potential flareups of old injuries.

Per the updated injury report, Walker was a limited participant with a knee injury and Morgan was a limited participant with a shoulder injury on Thursday. Veteran offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins got extra rest on Thursday and was added as a limited participant with no injury designation.

Walker, the starting left tackle, hasn’t missed a game this season but has been on the injury report previously this season due to a knee injury. Morgan, the team’s first-round pick, missed time during training camp with a shoulder injury and then suffered a re-injury in Week 2, which forced him to miss three straight games.

The Packers list Andre Dillard as the backup left tackle, although the team could reorganize the offensive line entirely if Walker can’t go on Sunday. Morgan started at left guard in Week 9 but would likely be the team’s No. 6 offensive lineman if center Josh Myers returns as expected this week.

The Packers made no other updates to the injury report on Thursday. The Bears returned edge rusher Montez Sweat and defensive back Tarvarius Moore to practice in a limited capacity on Thursday.
