GREEN BAY, Wis. – For the first time in eight years, the Green Bay Packers will have someone other than Brett Goode snapping on punts and placekicks.
The trusty veteran long snapper was placed on injured reserve on Monday.
According to his agent, Kevin Gold, Goode sustained a torn ACL during the first quarter of Sunday’s win at Oakland. Goode appeared to reach for his right knee after an extra-point kick but it's possible it could have happened before that while Goode was covering one of the two first-quarter punts. Either way, he finished the game and wanted to try to keep playing the rest of the season with a brace, Gold said.
