Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari was hoping he had gotten past the knee issues that resulted in three separate surgeries and impacted his past two seasons.
“I signed up to play,” Bakhtiari said. “I plan on playing. And when I can play, I’m going to play. Clearly if I’m not playing, there’s something going on. It’s not like it’s been a secret. It’s something I’ve been battling with and it’s been . It’s been weighing on me a lot. You think I don’t want to play?”
How soon — and how often — he will get to play again remains up in the air. That’s frustrating for a player who has been through this situation for nearly three years now.last year, Bakhtiari now gets to come home and take his mind off his troublesome knee. “The most refreshing thing is seeing my daughter’s face and like the no-judgment happiness, just saliva everywhere on her mouth, just drooling. I’m like, ‘She just loves Doesn’t matter what I did today. Didn’t matter how I feel.’ And that like, has been, it’s been pretty good.”
NOTES: WR Christian Watson, who missed the Packers’ first two games with a hamstring injury, was a limited practice participant Wednesday. RB Aaron Jones, who didn’t play at Atlanta because of a hamstring problem, didn’t practice.The Associated Press is an independent global news organization dedicated to factual reporting.
