Driver, Pickett, Wilson not practicing Wednesday

Posted by Mike Spofford on November 28, 2012 – 12:25 pm

Depending on the post-practice update from Mike McCarthy, the Packers could be a little thin on the defensive line for Sunday’s showdown against the Vikings and RB Adrian Peterson.

DL Ryan Pickett and C.J. Wilson were both sitting out practice on Wednesday during the portion of the workout open to reporters. Pickett will be new to the injury list when it is released after practice. Wilson left Sunday night’s game against the Giants with a knee injury.

Also, WR Donald Driver was not practicing. Driver has been on the injury report with a thumb injury, but he hasn’t missed any games. Backup RB Johnny White, who left Sunday’s game with a concussion, also did not practice.

Continuing to sit out on defense were DB Charles Woodson, CB Sam Shields and LB Clay Matthews.

    I thought about Babin as well, Also how about OL lineman Hayworth Hicks from Iowa State? Chad Clifton!!! We need help or our season is over!

    Mark Tauscher could probably step in in a pinch!! Couldn’t look any worse than the spinning door at left tackle or would allow lang back inside so DS could fill in at center because not many games are played on Saturday and Saturday does not fall on Sunday.

    If Wilson is out for extended time, could Ray Edwards be a a smart pick up?

    Over the past few years, it sure seems the Packers have a disproportionate number of injuries. It’s quite frustrating. It seems to me the Packers need to invest more time in a strength and conditioning program. I hope these guys can get healthy for a playoff run. Get healthy and stay healthy!

    We don’t need other teams cast-offs. Our d-line is up and coming, cast-offs are declinin.

    Babin claimed by Carolina or Jacksonville.

    Why not pick up Ryan Grant as a pre-caution? Knows the playbook and would fit right in. Seems like a logical choice at this point. I am with BMAS…why do we have all these injuries the last three years in comparison to other teams?

    I agree the Packers have had alot of injuries. With so many draft picks going defensive, you would think they would be healthier and better.
