The biggest injury news of the day for the Packers is Za’Darius Smith being placed on IR.
The Green Bay Packers get a long weekend before playing the Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football, allowing additional time to get healthy.
And they may need that extra time.
One player who won’t be playing in Week 2 is Za’Darius Smith. The updated injury report for Week 2 confirms what head coach Matt LaFleur said earlier in the day, that Smith is being placed on injured reserve.
