GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -Packers running back Ryan Grant and defensive end Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila missed practice Friday as a precaution heading into Monday night’s opener against Minnesota.
Grant has been dealing with an ailing hamstring, while Gbaja-Biamila has been recovering from right knee surgery. Both players fully participated in practice on Thursday.
Green Bay is trying to make sure its healthy for the season opener that also starts the Aaron Rodgers era. Linebacker A.J. Hawk is making progress toward playing for the first time since he suffered a strained muscle in his chest in the Aug. 11 preseason opener.
Hawk has been wearing a protective harness and returned to practice Thursday on a limited basis. He went through the full practice Friday and says he’s optimistic he’ll be ready Monday.
