Defensive Line

One of the Packers’ biggest weaknesses this season, it’s no surprise the defensive line receives their lowest grade of any position.

Kenny Clark went down with a groin injury in Week 1 and hasn’t returned since. For a unit that was downright bad in 2019, losing their only proven player–and a stud at that–has hurt tremendously.

They rank 23rd in yards per rush allowed and have been dominated a number of times at the line of scrimmage. Kingsley Keke has been a nice surprise and Tyler Lancaster has rebounded alright after a down season. However, they haven’t gotten many contributions from Dean Lowry or Montravius Adams. With Damon Harrison set to visit this week, he could be a tremendous addition to this unit moving forward.

Grade: C-
