GREEN BAY, Wis. – While the Green Bay Packers’ rookie defenders have provided an immediate impact, their two big draft picks on offense continue to run into injury-related roadblocks.
At practice on Friday, the final one before Sunday’s rivalry showdown at the Chicago Bears, first-round draft pick Jordan Morgan and third-round draft pick MarShawn Lloyd did not practice.
On Fridays, reporters are allowed to see only the team’s extensive pre-practice stretch. During those 15 minutes, Morgan rode a stationary bike while Lloyd was not seen inside the Don Hutson Center at all.
Morgan popped up on Thursday’s injury report as limited participation with a shoulder injury; he’s battled shoulder issues throughout the season.
