Green Bay Defense Too Injured To Warrant Consideration
6 years agoThe Green Bay Packers defense/special teams unit currently has five starters and three rotational players on IR. This is in addition to the starting safety they traded away. They have an additional two starters who are listed on the injury report for a Week 15 matchup against a Chicago Bears offense that has been favorable fantasy matchup for most of the season. Green Bay has been a useful streaming option this season, but with only three healthy starters they should not be considered. While they did manage to have a solid game last week, that was mostly the result of a pick-six. The risk of them imploding on the road is too great for use during the fantasy playoffs. The Packers defense/special teams unit should be avoided in all but the most desperate of situations.
