After three straight days of practicing as a limited participant, Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari is expected to start against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Bakhtiari, who is also dealing with the rehabilitation of his 2020 ACL tear and the subsequent surgeries, had missed every practice prior to this week since his emergency appendectomy on the Friday of Week 13.
Elsewhere on the offensive line, preferred starting right tackle Yosh Nijman was not given an injury designation on Friday. Nijman left last week’s game against the Miami Dolphins with a shoulder injury and was a limited participant on both Wednesday and Thursday before being listed as a full participant on Friday.
