Packers' Zach Tom, Aaron Banks Uncertain for Thursday vs. Commanders

Coach Matt LaFleur expects to make a game-time call based on medical evaluations.

Overview

  • Tuesday's walkthrough report indicated both linemen would have missed practice, keeping their status in doubt on a short week.
  • LaFleur said neither injury is considered long term, but availability for Week 2 remains undecided.
  • Tom sustained an oblique injury against the Lions and was replaced by Darian Kinnard, who would likely step in again if needed.
  • Banks is dealing with ankle and groin issues, and the Packers can turn to Sean Rhyan and first-round pick Jordan Morgan to cover the guard spots.
  • The team issued an estimated injury report Monday listing Tom and Banks among six DNPs, while Green Bay allowed no sacks in the opener.
