The Green Bay Packers were without offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins and eventually lost linebackers Quay Walker and De’Vondre Campbell midway through Sunday night’s 27-17 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Updates on each player from Monday:
– Per coach Matt LaFleur, Campbell avoided a serious knee injury but his availability for this week against the Detroit Lions is unclear. Campbell left the field with an ice wrap on his knee on Sunday night and didn’t return. The Packers won’t practice on Wednesday, when the first injury report of Week 9 is released. Isaiah McDuffie would start if Campbell can’t play in Detroit.
– Walker was ejected after incurring an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for pushing a non-uniformed member of the Bills sideline in the immediate aftermath of a play in the first half. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Walker’s conduct will be reviewed for a fine, but a suspension is not currently in consideration. He exited the game after 15 snaps and five tackles.
– LaFleur said Jenkins, who was a surprise inactive, had his foot stepped on in practice during the week. The initial thought was that Jenkins would be able to play through the injury, but pain in the area didn’t subside during a pre-game workout, so he was made inactive. Rookie Zach Tom started in place of Jenkins at left guard. It’s unclear if Jenkins’ availability is in question for Week 9.
