The Green Bay Packers are set to face the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day, but they will be missing several key players on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball. Injuries have hit the underdog Packers hard, leaving them depleted as they take on the NFC North-leading Lions.

On the offensive front, the Packers will be without tight end Luke Musgrave and running back Emanuel Wilson, as both have been placed on injured reserve. Another blow comes in the form of running back Aaron Jones, who is sidelined with a knee injury. Additionally, rookie receiver Dontayvion Wicks, who was dealing with both concussion protocol and a knee injury, will not be available.

Defensively, the Packers will feel the absence of some important starters. Cornerback Jaire Alexander, linebacker De'Vondre Campbell, and safety Rudy Ford will all be inactive due to injuries. These key defensive players will be sorely missed as the Packers attempt to contain the Lions' potent offense.

Tight end Josiah Deguara, who was already doubtful to play, will not be suiting up. The Packers have brought up rookie Henry Pearson from the practice squad to fill in for Deguara. Additionally, running back A.J. Dillon, who has been battling a groin injury, will tough it out and step onto the field.

The Packers listed eight players as questionable, doubtful, or out, and only one of them, A.J. Dillon, will be able to play. It is a challenging situation for Matt LaFleur and his team, as they face the formidable task of taking on the Lions at Ford Field.

Despite the injuries plaguing the Packers, they remain determined to put up a fight against their favored opponents. With the national spotlight on them, the Packers will look to overcome adversity and deliver a stunning upset on Thanksgiving Day.

As they prepare for this crucial matchup, the Packers will need to rely on the depth of their roster and the resiliency of their remaining players. It will be no easy feat, but if they can rise to the occasion, the injury-riddled Packers have the potential to surprise the football world and secure a victory over the Lions.
