While the Denver Broncos will likely have Champ Bailey and Elvis Dumervil back on defense this week, the Green Bay Packers are likely to miss several starters on either side of the ball. On Wednesday, right tackle Bryan Bulaga and running back Ryan Grant were the two main players not to practice. Both were injured last week and look highly doubtful to play this Sunday.
Tight end Jermichael Finley was limited in practice with an ankle injury. He hauled in seven passes for 85 yards last week and could haunt the Broncos if Champ Bailey isn't in the game.
Nick Collins, Pat Lee, Tramon Williams and Charles Woodson are either out, failed to practice or were limited on Wednesday. The secondary is hurting and opposing quarterbacks have been able to throw all over them in the first three weeks of the season. Kyle Orton could have the game that he needs to turn things around.
Here is the Wednesday injury report:
