GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) - With less than 24 hours before kick-off in Chicago, the Packers announced a pair of roster moves before they take on the Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday.
The first was the signing of Robert Rochell from the practice squad to the active roster. Rochell has played in four games for Green Bay this year, three of which were gameday calls. The big move, however, was that the Packers placed offensive lineman Jordan Morgan on injured reserve.
The rookie Morgan was selected out of Arizona with the No. 25 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Morgan has played six games this year, starting one as an offensive tackle.
The move comes after Morgan was ruled out by the Packers in Friday's injury report with a shoulder injury. Morgan did not practice on Friday after being limited on Thursday. But, Morgan was not listed on the injury report on Wednesday.
Head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed after practice on Friday that Morgan aggravated his shoulder issue that he's been fighting all season.
The Packers and Bears will kick-off from Soldier Field in Chicago at noon on Sunday.
