GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) – The Green Bay Packers could be without both of their starting safeties for Sunday at Washington, and linebacker Nick Barnett might be facing an extended absence.
The Packers already know they will be without rookie safety Morgan Burnett, who tore his ACL and is out for the season. Now veteran safety Nick Collins sat out practice Wednesday because of a nagging knee injury and his status for Sunday is unclear.
Barnett has a wrist injury and Packers coach Mike McCarthy says there is “definitely a possibility” that he could be out for an extended period of time. McCarthy says Barnett and linebacker Brandon Chillar, who has a shoulder injury, both are getting second opinions this week.
