Two offensive weapons for the Green Bay Packers aren’t on track to play in Week 15 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Packers have been hit hard by injuries in recent weeks.
The Packers were without Christian Watson and Aaron Jones during their loss to the New York Giants on Monday Night Football. Jones has been practicing this week. However, he practiced last week and was inactive Monday night.

But the Packers don’t have good news for Watson or running back AJ Dillon. Dillon and Watson did not practice Wednesday. According to Matt Schneidman with The Athletic, Dillon and Watson did not practice Thursday.
Dontayvion Wicks, Jayden Reed, Aaron Jones, Jaire Alexander & Quay Walker are practicing.
Christian Watson, Elgton Jenkins, Darnell Savage & AJ Dillon are not.
First time I’ve seen Luke Musgrave rehabbing at practice, too.

Missing Thursday’s practice is not a good sign for their availability against the Buccaneers on Sunday. Dillon would have to come back on a short week from his injury on Monday night. Watson’s hamstring appears to be serious at this point, and he could be out for a while.
