David Bakhtiari

The Packers have released LT David Bakhtiari.

Fantasy Impact

The move does not come as a surprise considering that injury problems have limited Bakhtiari to 13 games over the last three seasons. The former All-Pro will now look for a new team if he wishes to continue his career.

Green Bay Packers OT David Bakhtiari told the media he needs additional surgery and is out for the remainder of the season. He hopes to be ready for camp in 2024.

Fantasy Impact

Bakhtiari has struggled with injury in recent years, playing 12/1/11/1 games in the last four seasons. Before then, Bakhtiari had made five consecutive All-Pro teams, keeping one of the league's best off the field. This is a tough blow for the Packers' line, and they will have to look toward a short-term replacement.

Packers OL David Bakhtiari (knee) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Bakhtiari had missed three consecutive games leading up to his placement on IR. Given his history with knee issues, it is unclear when or if the veteran tackle will return this season. When healthy Bakhtiari is one of the best left tackles in the league, so this is a big blow for Jordan Love and the Packers’ offense.

Fantasy Impact

Thursday will mark the third-straight game that Bakhtiari has missed because of a knee injury. There's no real timeline for his return, and this has been a lingering issue for him. He's one of the best left tackles in football when he's healthy and on the field, so his absence is less than ideal for Jordan Love and Green Bay's running backs against the Lions.
