Packers List Seven Players Questionable for Season Opener vs Lions

The Green Bay Packers are facing several key injuries ahead of their 2025 season opener against the Detroit Lions, with wide receiver Jayden Reed, right tackle Zach Tom, and left guard Aaron Banks all listed as out. Defensive end Micah Parsons, recently acquired from the Dallas Cowboys and battling a back injury, is expected to play but with limited snaps due to missing training camp and limited practice reps. Cornerback Nate Hobbs, a significant offseason addition, is questionable due to a knee injury that required surgery; he has been limited in practice and is likely to sit out the opener to fully recover. Rookie cornerback Micah Robinson was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster to provide depth in Hobbs' potential absence. Other players including Zayne Anderson, Matthew Golden, and Dontayvion Wicks are also questionable or limited in practice. Head coach Matt LaFleur emphasized caution with Hobbs, noting his hard work but acknowledging the challenges of missing a month of practice in a new defensive system, while expressing confidence in Parsons' explosive potential despite his limited preparation.
