Packers To Be Without Defensive Coordinator Thursday
3 years agoGreen Bay Packers defensive coordinator Joe Barry has tested positive for COVID-19 and is likely to miss Thursday's game against the undefeated Arizona Cardinals, according to sources. Although Barry will not be on the sidelines on Thursday night on a short week, he will be part of the game-planning virtually. The Packers have been one of the better defenses this year in terms of total yards allowed per game (331.4), but they've struggled to contain the rushing attack, allowing 120.6 yards per game on the ground. Life will be more difficult on a short week without their defensive coordinator against the NFL's lone unbeaten team, and fantasy managers would be wise to avoid them this week.
