Thursday's Packers vs. Buccaneers injury report Via @packers on X

What happened: Green Bay issued its Thursday injury report ahead of the Buccaneers matchup. The update comes after the Packers added veteran guard Kevin Zeitler on Wednesday and brought in Mekhi Becton earlier in the week during an offensive-line overhaul.

Why it matters: Late-week participation carries extra weight for Green Bay because the line has been reshaped on the fly heading into this game. Tampa Bay is also managing a changed offense after Baker Mayfield was ruled out for at least three weeks earlier this week.

By the numbers: Green Bay has added three veteran offensive linemen since Sunday, including Becton on Sept. 28 and Zeitler on Sept. 30. Tampa Bay placed McMillan on injured reserve on Sept. 30, and Mayfield's absence is expected to last at least three weeks.

What to watch: Friday's practice report and final game statuses will set the last designations before kickoff.
