Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, Kenny Clark, Christian Kirksey, Rashan Gary. Those are the names of the key Green Bay Packers players who did not suit up against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night, and with those absences, the team’s coaching staff did an admirable job of adapting the game plan.
The offense ran through the running backs and tight ends, a good idea against a Falcons defense that was dealing with plenty of injuries of its own. However, the defense had to shuffle the deck even more after seeing a pair of starting cornerbacks leave the game with injuries as well.
