GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers delivered a knockout of the New Orleans Saints on Monday night, rolling to a 34-0 win, but left Lambeau Field with some significant injury issues headed into Sunday’s showdown at the Minnesota Vikings.
The Packers lined up without four starters on defense: linebacker Quay Walker (ankle), safety Javon Bullard (ankle), safety Evan Williams (quad) and cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee).
During the second quarter, receiver Christian Watson sustained a knee injury. While he returned to action and even played a little to start the third quarter, he missed most of the second half.
