Three players missed practice all week, while one suffered a setback on his road to recovery.
Here’s the latest from practice:
Aaron Banks injury update
Packers guard Aaron Banks missed practice all week, making it likely he’ll miss his third game of the season.
Banks missed the season opener against the Minnesota Vikings, then returned for Week 2 against the New York Jets but missed the second half. He was ruled out for the Packers’ Week 3 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons.
Banks has been dealing with knee tendinitis since training camp and a toe injury since Week 2.
“He’s just working through it,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. “We’ll see where he’s at.”
Jacob Monk injury update
Packers guard Jacob Monk also missed practice all week.
He appeared on the injury report with a quadricep injury.
Monk played in the Week 3 game against the Falcons.
Anthony Campbell injury update
Packers defensive tackle Anthony Campbell missed practice all week.
Campbell has been dealing with an ankle injury that forced him to miss the Falcons game.
Warren Brinson injury update
Packers defensive tackle Warren Brinson will not be available to play for the foreseeable future.
Brinson has been sidelined with a calf injury since preseason, and made his return to practice on Sept. 30, only to injure his groin at the start of that practice.
“Unfortunately, I think he’s going to miss a significant amount of time,” LaFleur said. “All he did was slip and injuries occur. A lot of times it’s non-contact.”
