Green Bay Packers Formal Coach Mike Holmgren Is Given A Prestigious Standing Applauded In Big Blue Madness….
The Packers have listed receiver Dontayvion Wicks (shoulder) and defensive lineman Colby Wooden (knee) as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans.
Defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt (ankle) has been ruled out of his third straight game, though the former first-round pick continues to make progress.
“I know he’s been moving around quite a bit,” Head Coach Matt LaFleur said.
“He’s walking normal. He’s been working out, running, so hopefully next week he’ll be ready to go.”
Wicks left Sunday’s 34-13 win over the Arizona Cardinals due to the shoulder but practiced all three days in a limited capacity.
The second-year receiver has 11 catches for 133 yards and is tied for the team lead with three touchdown catches.
“I’m feeling way better now,” said Wicks on Thursday. “So going to keep getting recovery, keep treating it, so I can feel better for Sunday.
The Texans ruled out five players for Sunday: linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (knee), cornerback Kamari Lassiter (shoulder), linebacker Henry To’oTo’o (concussion), safety Jimmie Ward (groin) and receiver Robert Woods (foot). All but Woods are listed as starters for Houston.
Defensive tackle Foley Fatukasi (shoulder) and receiver Steven Sims (back) are questionable. Sims was added to the injury report after not practicing Friday.
Houston didn’t issue a game status for the following players who are expected to be available: running back Joe Mixon (ankle), linebacker Del’Shawn Phillips (hip) and tackle Laremy Tunsil (ankle).
