Jason Spriggs may be in for a long afternoon on Sunday.

Based on the Green Bay Packers’ first injury report of the week from Wednesday Brett Favre Color Rush Jersey , the team’s backup offensive tackle appears headed for the starting lineup and a matchup with Khalil Mack this weekend.That is because starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga missed practice on Wednesday with his ongoing knee injury. That issue kept him out of last Sunday’s win over the Atlanta Falcons, and it is now threatening to keep him inactive once again this weekend. If he cannot suit up, that would leave Spriggs in the unpleasant position of having to block one of the NFL’s best pass-rushers on most of the game’s snaps.While Bulaga remained off the field, the Packers did get one other injured offensive lineman back in some capacity Wednesday. That player is left guard Lane Taylor, who was practicing, albeit on a limited basis. With right guard Byron Bell going on injured reserve, the Packers likely need every healthy lineman they can get, and Taylor should see a substantial dose of Bears’ defensive lineman Akiem Hicks if he can play.Three other Packers were notable in their absences from practice on Wednesday, with nose tackle Kenny Clark being the most critical. His elbow injury kept him off the field, a major problem since he is the only remaining week-one starter on the Packers’ defensive line. Hopefully this will just be a rest day for him https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Paul-Hornung-Jersey , as it was for tight end Jimmy Graham. Finally, cornerback Bashaud Breeland missed practice, but it appears that it was related to a personal matter instead of the groin injury that has limited him recently.The Bears, meanwhile, had just one player show up on Wednesday’s injury report. That is wide receiver Allen Robinson, who was a surprise non-participant. Robinson’s injury is listed as a hip issue, so keep an eye on that moving forward this week.Here are the full reports for both teams for their first practice before the week 15 matchup at Soldier Field.Packers Wednesday Practice ReportDid Not ParticipateCB Bashaud Breeland (groin/not injury related)RT Bryan Bulaga (knee)DL Kenny Clark (elbow)TE Jimmy Graham (knee/thumb)Limited ParticipationWR Randall Cobb (hamstring)OLB Clay Matthews (ankle)G Lane Taylor (foot)Full ParticipationQB Aaron Rodgers (knee)WR Equanimeous St. Brown (elbow)Bears Wednesday Practice ReportDid Not ParticipateWR Allen Robinson (hip) The Green Bay Packers have only begun the interview process for their next head coach, but already some names have surfaced for consideration. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the team will conduct a “wide-ranging search with perhaps 10-12 candidates” with Northwestern’s Pat Fitzgerald and the New England Patriots’ Josh McDaniels named as targets.Fitzgerald and McDaniels, both of which appeared in our list of the top five candidates from early December Bart Starr Jersey , have at least some ties to the Packers organization. Team president and CEO Mark Murphy hired Fitzgerald as head coach when the two worked for Northwestern during the mid-2000s. As for McDaniels, his name came up in connection with the San Francisco 49ers’ head-coaching job at a time when Brian Gutekunst, now running Green Bay’s personnel department, had become the front-runner for that team’s general-manager position.Rapoport also reports that Joe Philbin, currently the Packers’ interim head coach, has little chance of receiving the full-time job even though the team will interview him. Given the issues the offense has dealt with all year, that comes as little surprise.While Fitzgerald and McDaniels headline the list of targets, the Packers will interview many other candidates before settling on their next head coach.
