Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari, who was recently placed on the injured reserve, spoke in great detail on Friday about the “new” setback in his knee and his path to recovery from his 2020 ACL tear. If you want the short story on Bakhtiari’s 35-minute interview, it’s that the bookend and the Packers are finally confident that they’ve identified the issue that’s limited him to just 13 games since New Year’s Eve 2020.
According to Bakhtiari, the initial diagnosis of his injury was an ACL tear and a partial tear of his lateral meniscus.
