Many things going on for the Green Bay Packers as they gear up for their next game against the Detroit Lions. Amidst an extensive injured roster, the team is still missing a substantial number of playmakers in their games. One such name is Rashan Gary. The outside linebacker had been out for a while after he suffered a season-ending injury back in 2022. The Packers, however, have a lot of good news to unfold in the middle of all of this, which is beside the point.
Rashan Gary has had quite a journey to get to where he is now. The Packers barely won the last game against the Saints. However, it still made Rashan Gary emotional as he poured his heart out after the game. Would they be champions of the next game? Seems likely.

Rashan Gary was also seen suddenly tearing up during his heart-to-heart. “All I wanna say is bro, it’s an honor and a privilege to go out there every Sunday and go to war with y’all bro”. He mentions how he has been working hard for 9 months for this comeback as he gets patted on his back by his teammates.
Gary is back and is performing better than ever. However, there have been issues with the Packers’ squad in the last few weeks due to the increased number of injured players. The HC Matt LaFleur addressed the situation recently as well.
The ailing pack
Matt LaFleur recently appeared in an interview where he shared the injury report and was enthusiastic about the playmakers of the game returning to the field. Aaron Jones has been practicing in a limited capacity and there are speculations that he will play against the Detroit Lions, along with Christian Watson. Both these players have gone through a hamstring injury which has made things a bit challenging for the team.

Currently, there are about 10 Packers who are out of the game. The good news is that most of them are participating in practice, though in a limited capacity. The coach seems to be optimistic about some of his players returning. Fortunately, Jordan Love has enough star defense pieces to support him in making those plays.
