Packers-Cowboys Injury Report: Montgomery doubtful, tackles questionable

With about 48 hours to go until kickoff between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, a host of critical players on both teams have their statuses for the teams’ week five game in question.

However, that’s a better sign than the Packers have had in recent weeks, particularly on the offensive line. Offensive tackles David Bakhtiari and Bryan Bulaga are both listed as questionable for Sunday’s game, the first time that neither one has been at least doubtful all year. Both were limited participants in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, also a first this season.

On the running back front, the Packers listed just a single runner on the injury report as starter Ty Montgomery is listed as doubtful due to his broken ribs. However, Jamaal Williams was a full participant in practice all week and does not appear on Friday’s report.

A final critical item is that defensive tackle Mike Daniels is also listed as questionable. However, in comments to reporters on Friday he said that he is “ready to roll,” a sign that he should be able to play on Sunday barring any setbacks over the weekend.

The Cowboys, meanwhile, have yet to rule any players out for the game, but their multitude of players with questionable statuses seems to hide the severity of their injuries. Linebacker Sean Lee has not practiced all week, and left tackle Tyron Smith has not participated since Wednesday, when he was limited. If they cannot play, that would make things significantly easier for the Packers on both sides of the football.

Here are the injury reports for week five.
