After doing a little checking, The Packers are not the only teams with guys starting training camp on the PUP list.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/injuries/pup

Bengals, 49r's, Falcons, and Patriots all have 5 guys listed, this is not a completed list as, in The Packers case, they had yet to officially send their report in.

I know for a fact The Bengals have a minimum of 10 players, for one reason or another, who are not able to make the 1st day of practice.

So even though it's not a good thing to have these guys starting on the PUP, seems it is pretty normal.

My intent when originally posting this article was not to create panic, I was just glad to finally see some current news from TC.

I wonder which of them has a hamstring injury. 🤔

Agreed. I also hope CM3s hang nail doesn't hold him out of anything else.

Yeah Clay was actually a guy I was expected to start on PUP and to my surprise he wasn't. That was a nasty fracture.

Most NFL injuries are very legit. It doesn't change the fact that they can't help their team win if they are injured and on the bench. The Packers don't seem to have any dependable and available outside linebackers really. Perhaps Julius Peppers?

It is too bad Perry has been far less reliable than Clay...USC hasn't done us many favors in the way of health. It seems like a lot of those guys are very injury prone at the NFL level. Cushing, Maualuga, Mays, Bush, Tyron Smith, etc, etc. Those USC guys are soft. I wonder if they're given certain things at USC that make their bodies less able to stand up over the long haul.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

At least guys like Hawk, Raji, Williams, and Shields stay relatively healthy.

I wouldn't put shields in the group of players that stays healthy lol. I think he's missed almost as much time as Clay the last couple years and it seems his specialty is getting knocked out of big playoff games.

I remember several years ago when Fred Taylor got the nickname "Fragile Fred" after missing 6, 3, 14 games in his 2nd, 3rd, 4th NFL seasons. Everyone was saying how he can't stay healthy. He went on to start every game his next two seasons. My point is that injury streaks can come to an end. Like investments, past performance is no guarantee of future results.

I understand the apprehension behind Matthews and his injuries but I don't get the resignation to them. Is it simply a feeling of "If I expect him to miss 4 or 5 games I won't be disappointed when he does"

Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (7h) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
