The Green Bay Packers and San Francisco 49ers are set to square off in the biggest game of the season to date. The Divisional Round of the 2023 playoffs are here and the Packers are surprised many by getting to this point.
It won’t get any easier for the Packers as the 49ers are the #1 Seed in the NFC. However, it was announced just a few hours before kickoff that the Packers will have a key player available to their defense.
The Green Bay Packers Get Massive Weapon On Field For Their Matchup Against The San Francisco 49ers
It has been expected that cornerback Jaire Alexander was to be in the lineup for the Packers’ playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers, despite not practicing this week.
That expectation probably became reality when it was officially announced he would play.
This week, the team only practiced on Wednesday and Thursday. Alexander was not out there for either practice. He focused on rehabbing his injured left ankle so he could be at 100 percent for Saturday night’s game.
It will be critical for Alexander to be on the field against the 49ers on Saturday, just as it was against Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb.
In both passer rating and yards per attempt, Brock Purdy ranked first in the NFL. Brandon Aiyuk ranked seventh in receiving yards and second in yards per catch. With over 1,100 combined receiving and rushing yards this season, Deebo Samuel led the NFL with 18.2 yards per catch in.
It will be all hands on deck for this young but talented Packers defense.
