Thanksgiving Games Injury Report – NFL Insider Ian Rapoport Delivers Crucial Update

Bad news incoming for some teams as the NFL enters Week 12. The 4-6 Green Bay Packers are up against the 8-2 Detroit Lions. But with one of their crucial defensive members down, will they be able to win against the formidable Lions? This week in particular has been tough for players, with Geno Smith, and Joe Burrow, two-star QBs going down with injuries.

However, while some players are battling injuries, a head coach’s job is also on the line. As the season crosses the halfway mark, things are getting heated up both on the field and off the field as well.

Ian Rapoport shares news that will disappoint Packers fans

Ian Rapoport, an NFL Insider, spoke on Good Morning Football, regarding the status of players with injuries. Unfortunately, for Packers fans, their RB Aaron Jones will be out for the game due to an MCL sprain. On the flip side, it comes as a relief as fans had initially thought that it was much worse. But the fact remains that the defensive line will remain shorthanded.

However, there is good news for the Seattle Seahawks. Their QB, Geno Smith, who went down with triceps bruises, was squirming in pain on the gridiron field. But later scans revealed that it was nothing too severe, and he is expected to play against the San Francisco 49ers tomorrow.

Kenneth Walker, the Seahawks’ RB, was suffering from an abdominal injury. Although he will be skipping tomorrow’s game, he wasn’t placed on the “Injured Reserve” list, which is a good sign. It shows that his injury is not serious, and Rapoport speculated that he will play next week. Next, he delved into another serious matter concerning the Washington Commanders.

Will the Commanders sack their head coach in the upcoming weeks?

Ian Rapoport shared news that might be a cause of worry for the Commanders. When Josh Harris acquired the team in July, he promised that he wouldn’t make any sweeping changes to the team. Instead, he said that he would carefully observe till the end of the season and then take a call. However, recent events have forced him to reconsider his decision.

The Commanders lost an easy game to the New York Giants. Not only did the Giants not have their starting QB, but their backup QB was on the sidelines as well. In spite of that, and the fact that they had lost with a combined 79-23 points, the Commanders were unable to vanquish them. This got Rapoport wondering, “Does that change the plans?” and is the axe finally coming for Ron Rivera’s head?
