The Green Bay Packers are set to face a significant setback in their offensive line capabilities this upcoming season, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Speaking on Monday, September 7, LaFleur offered a succinct two-word response when asked about the playing status of starting right tackle Zach Bako-Bewele and presumptive starting left guard Aaron Banks – "We'll see."
Bako-Bewele, who was among the league's top players at his position, underwent knee surgery during the offseason. The lingering effects of this surgery have caused delays in his return to the team over the weeks leading up to the season opener on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium. Similarly, Banks is currently dealing with knee tendonitis.
Fans and analysts alike will be eagerly awaiting further updates on the condition of these key players as the season draws nearer.
