Packers Defense Records A Pick-Six During Week 7 Loss

The Green Bay Packers defense allowed 23 points, recorded one sack, and took their one interception for a 61-yard touchdown during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders.

Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby connected on all three of his extra point attempts during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders in Week 7.

Green Bay Packers tight end Robert Tonyan caught three of his four targets, gaining 32 yards, during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders.

Romeo Doubs Blanked In Week 7

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs failed to secure any of his four targets during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders. The rookie had to share reps with veteran Sammy Watkins, who was activated off the IR this weekend, resulting in his lowest target total since Week 2. Allen Lazard (shoulder) left […]

Sammy Watkins Tallies 36 Yards In Return

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sammy Watkins caught two of his four targets, gaining 36 yards, during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 23-of-35 pass attempts for 194 yards and two touchdowns during the team's 23-21 loss to the Washington Commanders.

Allen Lazard Questionable To Return

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard (shoulder) is questionable to return against the Washington Commanders in Week 7. He hauled in six of seven targets for 55 yards before exiting. Green Bay's already weak wide receiver corps is now down to Sammy Watkins, Romeo Doubs, and Amari Rodgers.

David Bakhtiari Inactive Against Commanders

Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee), who came into the Week 7 game against the Washington Commanders listed as questionable, is officially inactive for Sunday's game.

Sammy Watkins Officially Active Against Commanders

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) was activated from Injured Reserve on Saturday and is officially active for Week 7 against the Washington Commanders.

David Bakhtiari Questionable For Week 7

Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Washington Commanders. The veteran tackle is a significant part of the Packers offensive line. The 31-year-old is a three-time Pro Bowl tackle, so losing him would hurt the Packers run game on Sunday.
