Before we get there, want to go over the injury update from Thursday.

Savian Williams, Josh Jacobs, of course, the big one here being Josh Jacobs, both return to practice on Thursday.

A huge sign that Josh Jacobs may, in fact, be able to play. I kind of talked about it the other day. My expectation is that he's going to give it a go. We know how much this means to Josh Jacobs, how much he cares about it, how much he wants to be out there, and he will fight tooth and nail to get out there. If they let him play earlier with the calf injury that he had, I have a feeling they're going to let him with a knee contusion if he's good to go and that swelling gets down. The fact that he was already working out there in individual drills is a huge sign. I'm sure the big aspect of this is how his knee and his body is going to respond to it on Friday. Is there more swelling from it? Is there no issues? I think that's going to be

the big kind of question mark as to Friday. We'll see if he practices on Friday, but a huge step

for Josh Jacobs. And of course, again, Savion Williams' return to practice as well. Only three

players remained out for Green Bay. Nate Hobbs, which I just expect to be out this week for sure.

And then Carl Brooks and Quay Walker, I would assume if Brooks or Walker want any real chance to play,

they're going to have to practice on Friday.

It's not always the case, but that's usually a pretty key indicator.

If Carl Brooks can not go, they still afford defensive tackles.

You're going to get a lot of Colby Wooden.

You know, you're going to probably get a increase of Warren Brinson and to see your Stackhouse and, of course, a lot of Devante Wyatt as well. So White and Wooden still your starters, but Brinson and Stackhouse going to be called upon a lot more if Carl Brooks can't go in this game. Meanwhile, for Quay Walker, an interesting sort of shift there. Isaiah McDuffie becomes your mic. He's the one

calling the plays, getting everyone organized. He basically goes from a 8 to 15 snap player to

playing almost every single snap, if not every single snap of the game. So that's a pretty big change
