Packers could be down two O-line starters for ‘TNF’ vs. Commanders
Green Bay Packers offensive tackle Zach Tom (50) blocks Detroit Lions defensive tackle Marcus Davenport (92) during the first quarter of their game Sunday, September 7, 2025 at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Green Bay Packers right tackle Zach Tom and left guard Aaron Banks may not be ready for the team's Week 2 home game against the Washington Commanders on Thursday.
Tom picked up an oblique injury during Green Bay's 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, while Banks is dealing with groin and ankle injuries.
The Packers had to release an injury report Monday because of the proximity to Thursday's game, but it was estimated because the team did not practice. Tom and Banks were among six players given a DNP designation, joining defensive lineman Brenton Cox Jr. (groin), cornerback Bo Melton (shoulder), wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot) and linebacker Quay Walker (quad).
ESPN reported that there was "uncertainty" surrounding Tom's ability to play Thursday against Washington. Tom, 26, is beginning his fourth season with the Packers and his third as a starter.
Banks, 28, joined the Packers in free agency after four years with the San Francisco 49ers.
Star edge rusher Micah Parsons made his Packers debut against the Lions and recorded one sack despite dealing with a back injury and missing most of camp amid his contract dispute with the Dallas Cowboys. Parsons was listed on Monday's practice report as a limited participant.
Quarterback Jordan Love (left thumb) was deemed a full participant in the estimated report. Love had surgery to repair a ligament in the non-throwing thumb last month. He was 16-of-22 passing for 188 yards and two touchdowns in the opener.
