While the Green Bay Packers are expecting to return All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons for the showdown in Los Angeles on Thanksgiving Eve, the Rams will be down their top two pass-catching option come Week 12.
Not only is former Packer Davante Adams on injured reserve with a hamstring injury and not expected to be back until Week 13 at the earliest, but the Rams placed All-Pro Puka Nacua on injured reserve on Thursday due to an MCL injury in his knee that is expected to keep him out "extended time." Nacua has to miss at least four games while on injured reserve.
Nacua ranks third in the NFL with 70 catches entering Week 10. He was a first-team All-Pro after leading the NFL in receptions a year ago.
Who is left at wide receiver for the Rams Wire?
Cameron Da Silva of Rams Wire listed Tutu Atwell, Konata Mumfield and rookie CJ Daniels as the top three options on the depth chart with Adams, Nacua and Jordan Whittington all injured.
The Rams are also without cornerback Jaylen Watson, one of the team's big offseason additions, and defensive linemen Kobie Turner and Poona Ford, who are all on injured reserve.
The Packers recently avoided a matchup with former Packers receiver Romeo Doubs and former Pro Bowler A.J. Brown in New England last week.
