Packers 2022 Thread

And this …

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said LT David Bakhtiari had another procedure on his knee this offseason, which helps explain why he’s been out all offseason and is on PUP to start camp.

He called the initial injury “much more than an ACL” but maintained Bakhtiari will play again.
Knee is shot he's done
 
Good points. I can't remember off the top of my head, it's been years, but a lot of knee docs will tell you the amount of pressure per square inch, even a 10 pound loss of weight, will have on a knee joint. Added weight is a real factor and the knees bear a large brunt of the weight gain.
Yep you see a ton of OL and DL drop tons of weight after they are done playing and never look like they did when they played
 
I also heard that new rule now for PUP is you start season on it is only 4 games not 6 you have to miss
Thought that was IR rule?

I already posted that news two days ago??
 
He has a scar tissue issue among other things, swelling, etc.
What bothers me most is the implication that even after the last procedure, he's having nominal swelling despite only doing light physical activity.

The NFL has changed the PUP rules. Before this season, a player on the PUP list could not return to practice until after six games had been played. He would then need at least two weeks of practice before being activated.

Now, a player can begin practice after four games and be moved to the active roster immediately. This season, a player on the PUP list could be back in the lineup by Week 5.
