Here’s the complete inactive list:

ATLANTA -- Here are the inactives for Sunday's Packers-Falcons game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Green Bay Packers

'9 WR Christian Watson
33 RB Aaron Jones
36 S Anthony Johnson Jr.
39 S Zayne Anderson
57 LB Brenton Cox
69 T David Bakhtiari
72 T Caleb Jones

Atlanta Falcons

TBA

@TomSilverstein: So, expectation is that Rasheed Walker will start at left tackle for Bakhtiari. Walker started through the last part of training camp and looked solid. Now we'll find out whether he can do it for real. Expect another rookie, RB Emanuel Wilson to log a good number of snaps also.

If Bahktiari is going to miss all non-grass games, trade him while he has value.

If he refuses to play on turf, he won't practice, and can't make it to play 2 games in a row, his trade value is shit.

Re Packers’ inactives today, especially 69:

it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Packers have 3 games in 12 days starting today.

You know Bakh will be out there when and if it’s crunch time

Start him and leave him there. Bahk can back him up.

I'm guessing if Rodgers doesn't get hurt, Bahktiari probably plays. His plans of going to New York next year probably went up in smoke when Rodgers went down. They're besties, and if there's a way to screw Gutey they'll do it plus it's a contract year.

Find out if Walker can play and if he can, I'd get him more PT.

Patrick Taylor was elevated to the roster yesterday. Has E Wilson been activated as well? It would certainly be interesting to see him get some playing time.

Well, it will backfire. Walker can play.

Especially with his contract.  Great player... great dude.  But it was probably time to move on from him this past off season.

Bakhtiari is the best pass blocking LT in the league. You don’t bench him for anybody, especially a second year tackle making his first start today

For half the games he’s a great pass blocker. For the other half? 👎🏿Watch Walker today. He’ll block the shit out of these guys. Time to get younger NOW!

Nope. Pack did not have the cap room to do that.  Rodgers made sure of that.
