On Monday Night Football in Week 16, the Packers were at home to face the Saints. Green Bay quickly built a 21-0 lead by halftime and played a dominant four quarters. They beat New Orleans 34-0 and pitched the first shutout of the 2024 season. It was Green Bay’s first shutout since the 2021 season.
On top of that, the Packers clinched a playoff berth for the fifth time in the last six seasons. In that win, WR Christain Watson suffered an injury in the second quarter. A Saints defender landed on his knee and Watson did not return to the game. Head coach Matt LaFleur said there is some “concern” with Watson’s knee injury. The 25-year-old will have more tests done this week.
