Packers NT B.J. Raji Leaves Game Vs Colts With An Ankle Injury

Found October 07, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: B.J. Raji,  Cedric Benson,  Ryan Pickett
TEAMS: Green Bay Packers,  New Orleans Saints
The injury bug is biting the Green Bay Packers badly today, as Cedric Benson left the field moments ago on a cart, and now he's joined by defensive tackle B.J. Raji, who left with an injury to his left ankle.

Raji may have only seven tackles on the season, but he's a constant force and nose tackle, and their most reliable interior lineman. If Raji is out, it will fall on Ryan Pickett to fill in, but he's nursing injuries of his own. Last week Pickett hurt his shoulder against the New Orleans Saints, and was limited all week in practice, though he was included in today's roster.
