The Carolina Panthers and Green Bay Packers are set to square off in an interesting Week 16 matchup. The Packers (6-8) still have a good shot to make the playoffs this year if they win out and finish 9-8. The Panthers (2-12) are coming off an upset victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
This will be the third game in a row that the Packers are facing, by all accounts, a beatable opponent. That opponent may now be without one of their best defensive players on Sunday.
The Green Bay Packers May Not Have To Face Off Against One Of The Carolina Panthers’ Best Players
According to Zach Kruse of The Packers Wire:
Packers added Caleb Jones (foot/illness) and Luke Musgrave (kidney) to the injury report, so the injury list is now up to 17 players.
Also, Panthers edge rusher Brian Burns (illness) did not practice for a second straight day
The Panthers’ best defensive player has missed a second straight day of practice leading up to their contest against the Packers on Sunday. Losing Burns would be devastating to an already underperforming defensive line.
