Packers Film Breakdown: Dennis Kelly is the next man up

The Packers offensive line has had quite the season. Left tackle David Bakhtiari hasn’t played a snap after tearing his ACL in December of 2020, they lost rookie center Josh Myers to a knee injury early in the season, do-it-all lineman Elgton Jenkins who was replacing Bakhtiari tore his ACL, and now right tackle Billy Turner has also gone down with an injury. That leaves just one “preferred” starter at right guard in Royce Newman – and even he might not be starting if the Packers’ stable of offensive linemen were all healthy. Coming in to save the day are Lucas Patrick at center, Yosh Nijman at left tackle, Jon Runyan Jr.
