Packers set to bring in O-line reinforcements

At least, mostly intact; as intact as it’s going to be for the rest of this season. With veteran left tackle David Bakhtiari expected to miss the remainder of the year, there will still be one big absence throughout the rest of the season. Besides that, Love should be getting all of his starting protection back in the lineup.

Right tackle Zach Tom and center Josh Myers have held down the fort, starting every game so far this season with left tackle Rasheed Walker joining them after the injury to Bakhtiari. They will be rejoined by left guard Elgton Jenkins and right guard Jon Runyan this week.

Jenkins has missed the Packers’ last two games after suffering a sprained MCL. The knee injury had the potential to be much more serious, so a two-game absence is an absolute win for Green Bay. Runyan hasn’t missed any games but has been dealing with an ankle injury suffered during "Thursday Night Football" last week. He was forced to miss a few practices and was in danger of missing this week’s game but is reportedly primed to start.

Additionally, second-year wide receiver Christian Watson, who played through a questionable status from his hamstring injury last week, has finally made his way off the injury report. Watson should be able to play with no restrictions from now on, providing Love with another weapon to target moving forward.
