Green Bay, WI (My Sportsbook) - Green Bay Packers running back Ahman Green missed practice all week because of a bruised left kneecap and is still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Minnesota. Green was hurt after being pulled down by Chicago's Mike Brown at the end of a 29-yard run in Green Bay's victory over the Bears last week. He finished the contest with 78 yards on 12 carries. Tests revealed no structural damage in the knee. In 11 games this season, Green has totaled 967 yards and six touchdowns on the ground, while averaging 4.4 yards per carry. If Green cannot play on Sunday, rookie Tony Fisher is expected to make his first career NFL start. Fisher, who was a long shot to even make the team during training camp, has gained 170 yards and a touchdown on 39 carries this season. He ran for 91 yards on 17 touches against the Bears. The Packers have already clinched the NFC North, but are still in the running for home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Green Bay could also be without defensive tackle Gilbert Brown (ankle) and cornerback Tyrone Williams (hamstring), who are also listed as questionable for Sunday's game. Wide receiver Terry Glenn has not practiced all week with a hip injury, but is listed as probable. |
