Packers upgrade 4 players, add Devonte Wyatt to Thursday injury report

The Green Bay Packers upgraded four players to full participation and added defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt on Thursday’s updated injury report.

First, the good news: offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins, tight end Tucker Kraft, center Josh Myers and offensive tackle Zach Tom were all upgraded from limited on Wednesday to full participants on Thursday. Barring a setback, all four will be expected to start Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. And no player on the initial injury report was downgraded.

Quarterback Jordan Love practiced again in a — you guessed it — limited capacity. Rookie offensive lineman Jordan Morgan was the only player not to practice on Thursday.

However, there’s a new injury situation to monitor the rest of the week. Wyatt, who could be a key player for the Packers defense on Sunday against the Vikings, has a new shoulder injury and was limited on Thursday. He is coming off a two-sack performance against the Tennessee Titans last week.

The Vikings, meanwhile, returned center Garrett Bradbury (ankle) to practice on Thursday. Linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. (ankle) remained out, defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard (knee) went from limited on Wednesday to did not participate on Thursday and left tackle Christian Darrisaw was added to the injury report as a non-participant during Thursday’s practice due to an illness. Receiver Jordan Addison (ankle) was limited for a second consecutive day. Quarterback Sam Darnold (knee) remained a full participant.

The Packers and Vikings will provide a final injury report with playing status designations on Friday.
