Green Bay Packers
DST - Green Bay Packers
Availability
The Packers D/ST allowed 19 points while notching three sacks in a 20-19 win over the Bears in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
Green Bay got sacks from Rashan Gary, T.J. Slaton, and Brenton Cox Jr. in the close win. They also blocked a potential game-winning field-goal attempt by the Bears with three seconds left on the clock. The team will now turn their attention to the 49ers in Week 12.
The Packers D/ST allowed 17 points on 261 total yards with one sack on Sunday against the Lions.
Fantasy Impact
Green Bay was able to keep the Lions offense in check for most of the afternoon with one of their touchdowns being a pick-six thrown by Jordan Love. They were able to hold the Lions run game to less than four yards per carry.
The Green Bay Packers D/ST secured a road victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars despite conceding 27 points (most since Week 4) and recording just one sack.
Fantasy Impact
The Packers have been one of the strongest defenses in the NFL this season, recording 2+ takeaways in every game but one (Week 7) this season. Though this was not their best performance, the Packers have earned trust as a fantasy performer with a variety of scoring capabilities, though a Week 9 outing against the red-hot Detroit Lions is not promising.
The Packers D/ST allowed 22 points, 86 passing yards, and 142 rushing yards in a win over Houston.
Fantasy Impact
The Packers' defense tallied four sacks and one pass defensed in the win over Houston. They struggled to stop the run but did a great job of making C.J. Stroud uncomfortable. The Packers will take on the Jaguars in Week 8.
The Green Bay Packers D/ST had another strong outing, allowing just 13 points and recovering three fumbles in a Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
While Green Bay allowed over 300 yards of offense and recorded zero sacks and zero interceptions, both for the first time this season, it was still a solid day defensively. Safety Xavier McKinney's five-game INT streak came to an end, but GB's defense under Jeff Hafley seems to be a well-oiled, turnover-forcing machine, recording nine interceptions, eight fumble recoveries, and 16 sacks in six games. Next up is a test against a talented Houston Texans offense without star WR Nico Collins (hamstring, IR).
