Rich Bisaccia on Brandon McManus’ plan for the rest of the week: “Going to lean on him, he’s been through this before. Planning on him playing Sunday as of right now.”

Brandon McManus tells us he plans to kick on Sunday. Asked about LaFleur saying his right quad injury is a “major concern,” McManus said he didn’t talk to LaFleur about his injury and that LaFleur has his own thesaurus.

The Green Bay Packers made a deal with the God of Special Teams. It gave Desmond Howard's 1996 season. The cost was everything thereafter.
Is there any religion that is anti-special teams? I honestly don't care what the rest of the belief system is, I'm in.

Not great! Trey Hendrickson rushes almost exclusively from the defense's right side (or against the left tackle)
Rasheed Walker added to the DNP list, joining Devonte Wyatt and Anthony Belton.

*Rubs chin and thinks deeply* If you don't have a kicker, you can't have a kick blocked...

Scrambling at kicker because of a mid-week injury could provide the wacky!
Packers and Bengals have played some wacky games so expecting something weird on Sunday seems appropriate

Matt LaFleur says it's a "major concern" that Brandon McManus has a right leg injury. Was limited on Wednesday. Injury didn't happen on tackles in Dallas.

Not surprising but Matt LaFleur doesn't sound like DL Devonte Wyatt will play on Sunday.

First injury report after the bye has a few new things on it: Love with an ankle (although he was a full participant) and McManus right quad (likely from those tackles he had to make on kickoff coverage)

Christian Watson in pads. He did only individual drills on Monday without pads. Matt LaFleur said: “I think just every day he'll start to do a little bit more.” Only two DNPs: Devonte Wyatt and Anthony Belton.

Matt LaFleur on Zach Tom: "He's doing well right now." LaFleur says Tom will be limited at practice this week. Packers in pads today. Will be a "good test" for him

Matt LaFleur on facing Joe Flacco again: "It'll be interesting." "I would bet that he would have no problems picking up (the offense) in a short period of time."
