Tackle Jason Spriggs lasted all of one play in the Green Bay Packers’ loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He has now joined many a casualty in this Packers’ season and has been placed on injured reserve.

Spriggs injured his knee on that play and, although we don’t know exactly what the injury is yet, it’s obviously serious. This is the second time Spriggs has been sent to IR this season and ironically, the first time was after he suffered an injury after only one play in the season opener. He was just blocking on the special teams unit that time, however, not starting at right tackle.

And as you well know, the Packers’ original starting right tackle, Bryan Bulaga, is also on IR.

So going into the team’s meaningless final game against the Detroit Lions, the Packers will use guard Justin McCray at right tackle. He was originally the starter for Jahri Evans, who was also injured, last Saturday against the Vikings. When Spriggs went down, McCray shifted a spot right and Lucas Patrick came in.

What a shit show this has become!

They have not announced Spriggs injury, but it sounds like it was a bad knee injury... so it's possible Spriggs might miss all of next year... and Bulaga might miss half of the year from his earlier injury. So the Packers are just down to Bakhtiari and Murphy as our only healthy OT depth and Murphy has a lot to prove...

And we need to protect Rodgers next year... so I'm thinking that they need to invest into OT and make sure that has healthy depth or we'Re going to have another screwed season.

Btw, I heard they were gonna (FINALLY) replace that shitty fucking field turf. I wonder how many fewer leg injuries we'll sustain if we go back to natural grass.
