Packers who have chance at returning from injury: David Bakhtiari

David Bakhtiari’s recovery has probably been the most frustrating one of anyone on this list. He tore his ACL in practice one year ago and had the whole offseason to recover. He was seen doing individual drills as early as training camp and there was some optimism he’d be able to return soon after the season began.

It wasn’t a huge surprise when he was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list to begin the season, but it is a big disappointment that he has yet to suit up. He suffered a setback upon his return that required a clean-up surgery and has delayed his return.

He’s quickly running out of time to return and knock the dust off that comes with a one-year absence. Still, Green Bay would love to see the best left tackle return to protect Aaron Rodgers’ on a path to the Super Bowl.
