GREEN BAY, Wis. -- It turned out those 27 snaps David Bakhtiari played in the Green Bay Packers' regular-season finale were not a playoff warmup for him.
Bakhtiari, an All-Pro left tackle, was declared inactive before Saturday's NFC divisional round game against the San Francisco 49ers at Lambeau Field. He was listed as questionable after practicing only one of the three days this week leading up to the game.
Bakhtiari tore his ACL on Dec. 31, 2020, and underwent two surgeries -- one to reconstruct his ACL last January and another this past fall to deal with swelling and scar tissue.
