With Rudy Ford questionable for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams and Darnell Savage still on IR, the Green Bay Packers may have to rely on seventh-round rookie Anthony Johnson to start next to Jonathan Owens.
Ford was a full participant during Wednesday’s practice but then was limited on Thursday with a calf injury and he missed Friday’s practice.
Even with a full-blown competition taking place at safety over the summer for that starting spot next to Savage, Johnson spent most of his time playing with the second-team defense and often the third team.
