With David Bakhtiari inactive, the Green Bay Packers will have a new offensive line vs. the Washington Commanders. It’s just not the one they planned to use.
Plan A gave up four sacks in last week’s loss to the New York Jets. Plan B, which was supposed to be rolled out for Sunday’s game at the Washington Commanders, was scuttled when left tackle David Bakhtiari was listed among the inactives.
So, it’s onto Plan C – one that includes a rookie making his first NFL start in place of Bakhtiari and mass changes elsewhere.
Based on pregame warmups, the Packers will line up with rookie Zach Tom at left tackle, Elgton Jenkins at left guard, Josh Myers at center, Jon Runyan at right guard and Yosh Nijman at right tackle.
