Make sure you keep your eye on these three players on the Green Bay Packers heading into their Week 10 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Green Bay Packers have an intriguing game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. On the surface, it appears it has all the makings of a blowout considering the Jaguars are 1-7 and Green Bay is 14-point favorites. However, it’s a bit more complicated than that.

The weather could be worse than it was when the Packers lost at home to the Vikings a couple of weeks ago. The forecast calls for 40 degrees, a 70 percent chance of rain and wind gusts up to 40 mph. That could even the playing field for these two teams and make the game much more interesting. That’s why we need to keep our eye on these three players who could be difference-makers for the Pack.

3. Christian Kirksey

Kirksey is returning from the IR this week after last playing in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints. In two-plus games this season, he’s recorded 27 total tackles, however, none of them have been for a loss. 

Kirksey should pair up alongside rookie Kamal Martin to form the best one-two punch the Packers have had at linebacker this season. The veteran was supposed to be an upgrade over Blake Martinez, but that hasn’t yet proven to be the case. Can he get back on track against Jacksonville?
