Packers Defense Getting Key Linebacker Back
4 years agoThe Green Bay Packers activated linebacker Christian Kirksey (shoulder) from Injured Reserve on Saturday and placed tight end John Lovett on IR in a corresponding move. Kirksey has been out since injuring his shoulder in Week 3, and his return will be a big boost for the middle of the Packers Defense in an excellent matchup against the Jaguars and rookie quarterback Jake Luton in Week 10. Kirksey had 27 tackles (18 solo) in his three games before going on IR, and he can be a useful piece for fantasy managers in IDP leagues down the stretch. Consider the Packers defense a top-five fantasy unit against Jacksonville, especially with Kirksey back in the fold.
