Four starters highlight the Green Bay Packers’ inactive list for Week 14 vs. the New York Giants.
Receiver Christian Watson (hamstring) was ruled out on Saturday, cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder) was downgraded to out on Sunday, and now running back Aaron Jones (knee) and linebacker Quay Walker (shoulder) are both inactive for Monday night at MetLife Stadium.
Here’s the inactive list for the Packers:
LB Quay Walker
WR Christian Watson
CB Jaire Alexander
CB Kyu Blu Kelly
RB Aaron Jones
T Caleb Jones
The two other inactive players — Kelly and Jones — are healthy scratches.
The Packers do have safety Darnell Savage, who was questionable to play with a chest injury. He is active and should start next to Jonathan Owens or Rudy Ford.
Expect rookies Dontayvion Wicks and Malik Heath to get more snaps at wide receiver with Watson out. Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs will be the top two receivers.
Carrington Valentine and Corey Ballentine will start at cornerback with Keisean Nixon in the nickel.
Isaiah McDuffie will start at linebacker for Walker and be vital in the defense’s containment of Saquon Barkley.
A.J. Dillon will be the lead running back with Patrick Taylor and Kenyan Drake behind him. Dillon could get 20 or more touches.
For the Giants, defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence and linebacker Isaiah Simmons are both active despite being listed as questionable. Receiver Parris Campbell is inactive.
