Minneapolis - Green Bay Packers linebacker Rashan Gary was inactive during Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Gary had hyperextension of his elbow in last week's victory over Seattle and put on a protective brace during practice this week. Coach Matt LaFleur listed him as a problematic person on Friday, but the team has an 8-2 record in the long run. How the Packers will adapt to high-quality running backs (Darwin Cook sprints for 648 yards at an average speed of 4.7 yards) and quarterbacks that are difficult to fire (with Kirk Cousins, the Vikings are on the firing rate) Ranked second) 3.5%).

Green Bay’s other inactive players are receiver Alan Lazard (shoulder), receiver Malik Taylor (abdomen), running back Aaron Jones (knee), left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) ), safety Vernon Scott and defensive tackle Jack Heflin.

As Gary may not participate in the game, Radarius Hamilton was promoted from the training team. Anticipating that Lazard would be out, Zhuwan Winfrey was promoted from the training team on Saturday. Without Jones, the Packers would have only AJ Dillon and Patrick Taylor in the backcourt.

According to Tom Pellisero of the National Football League Network, although quarterback Aaron Rodgers will make a start is not newsworthy, it is interesting that his work week includes "approximately 15 reps" on Friday.

The Packers were slammed for injury to the outside linebacker. Zadarius Smith, Whitney Mersiles, Chauncey Rivers and Randy Ramsey were in the injury reserve. Now Gary Not active.

When the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings were fighting at the Bank of America Stadium, Kirk Cousins ​​and Aaron Rogers exchanged important games.

The Green Bay Packers have many new faces, and they have performed poorly at almost every stage of the special team.

The record of the Green Bay Packers is 8-2. The Minnesota Vikings lead 4-5. Nevertheless, there are reasons to be vigilant.

The one standing last? Starting with Preston Smith, the 2020 seventh-round draft pick Jonathan Gavin, the practice team added Di Pagalai and the practice team promoted Hamilton. Smith and Gavin will start.

Galeai lost the election in 2020 and only participated in one NFL game. In the first game last year, he played 8 fast breaks in Minnesota, and then he did not play again. He spent the first 10 games of the season in the training team.

"God works in mysterious ways," Calais said Friday. "I have reflected a lot from that game. I have defended eight times and there is no special team representative. Now I want to participate in some defensive representatives and some special team representatives. I just worked with my head down for the whole year last year. I never look back, I have learned a lot from my eight games, and I have very little experience last year, which means a lot for entering this offseason and entering this season now, see how much I have improved ."

At 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighing 229 pounds, outside linebacker coach Mike Smith often says that he likes Calais explosiveness, but he needs to gain weight. On Friday, Galeai said his weight reached 240.

"I am a stubborn little rookie, I don't think I need to gain weight, I am in a good position now," Galeai said. "But over time, I noticed,'Hey, I have to put some meat on my bones, man.' I did. I certainly look forward to gaining more weight. Not trying to use a lot of bad weight. Overwhelm yourself, but slowly and surely I will get there."

For Calais, this is a different week. In his first half season with the Packers, he has been working hard on the scout team. He likes it. Not this week. Before the coach pulled him down, he served as a representative on the scout team so that he could focus on defensive game planning.

"I love it. It's fun. I can play against starters, I can play against one of the best quarterbacks of all time, and I can find something that puts you ahead of the other quarterbacks you are going to play against," He said. "It's a little hard to explain, but I like the scout team. I learned a lot from it and I started flying around. But I learned my technique, learned what I need to do, how to fix my eyes, what I should do, I Where it should be, some leverage. A year and a half later, now they call me, so it’s cool. If they give me a chance, I will definitely look for more scout team representatives."
