It's a long injury report for the Green Bay Packers. Despite the fact the Cowboys have 5 starters on their injury report, all of them are expected to play. Only ex-Packer KR Allen Rossum is out.
The Packers have 4 players out, including starters LB Aaron Kampman and RT Mark Tauscher. I'm not a fan of LB Brady Poppinga, but he's out too. Also, TE Jermichael Finley will miss his 3rd game in a row.
The good news is that the other 10 players on the injury report should all play. LB Brandon Chillar underwent hand surgery a couple weeks ago for a broken hand, but Mike McCarthy said Chillar will play with a club on his hand. It's unknown whether Chillar will replace LB A.J. Hawk or just play part of the game.
With Kampman and Tauscher out, rookie OL T.J. Lang will move over from the left side and play for the first time this season at right tackle, and rookie LB Brad Jones should start on the left side. Some high praise from defensive coordinator Dom Capers, as he compared Jones to a young Chad Brown (both fellow Buffaloes).
