Packers inactives list for Week 7 game against Texans
In a game between two evenly matched teams, two factors could come into play: Home-field advantage and injuries. The Green Bay Packers have the upper hand in both areas.
Green Bay has slowly gotten healthier in recent weeks. Only three players carried injury designations entering Week 7, and defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt was the only player ruled out earlier in the week.
It's a different story for the Houston Texans, who had already ruled out five key players two days before the game. That could have a significant impact when they visit Lambeau Field.

The Packers have already ruled out defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt. Be sure to check back regularly once the Packers release their full list of inactives at 10:30 a.m. CT on Sunday.
Player | Position | Injury |
|---|---|---|
Devonte Wyatt | DL | Ankle |
Green Bay has listed wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks and defensive lineman Colby Wooden as questionable. Everyone else on the roster is good to go in Week 7.
While Wyatt remains out and hasn't practiced since getting hurt in Week 4, head coach Matt LaFleur is hopeful he will be able to return next week against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
"We'll see," said LaFleur. "He's been moving around quite a bit. He's walking normal, he's been working out, running, so hopefully next week he'll be ready to go."

Be sure to check for updates once the Texans release their full list of inactives 90 minutes before kickoff. They have already ruled out five players.
Player | Position | Injury |
|---|---|---|
Azeez Al-Shaair | LB | Knee |
Kamari Lassiter | CB | Shoulder |
Henry To'oTo'o | LB | Concussion |
Jimmie Ward | S | Groin |
Robert Woods | WR | Foot |
Two days before the game, the Texans ruled out five key players. Linebackers Azeez Al-Shaair and Henry To'oTo'o have played a combined 646 defensive snaps for the Texans this season. Losing them both for this game is significant. Kamari Lassiter had made an outstanding start to his rookie year before getting hurt. The Packers' offense could take advantage.
The Texans won't have wide receiver Robert Woods, which hurts an offense already missing Nico Collins to injured reserve. Houston can still lean on Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell, but the offense will miss Woods and Collins.
