NFL Rumors: David Bakhtiari Not Participating In OTAs With Packers

The Green Bay Packers always seem to be the talk of the media throughout the offseason and OTAs. This offseason, they were able to get Aaron Rodgers back in the green and yellow, but they also lost Davante Adams.

Now, the Green Bay Packers are also dealing with a health concern to star offensive tackle, David Bakhtiari. 

Bakhtiari Gets Bad News From Packers Head Coach

Bakhtiari missed every game a season ago, besides one due to a torn ACL that he sustained in December of 2020. Now with him missing OTAs, people are starting to get worried that this injury is continuing to be much worse than the Packers organization and head coach Matt LaFleur are saying it is.

What's even more concerning is what Matt LaFleur has said about David Bakhtiari.

Matt LaFleur says the plan all along has been to sit David Bakhtiari (knee) during OTAs to make sure he's physically ready for training camp.

Packers Fans Are Upset

People are now upset that are Packers fans and football fans in general because if they made him play in that game against the Detroit Lions a year ago, then he should be able to be practicing right now.

Obviously, there was some sort of mix-up within the Packers organization and they rushed him back and now they're dealing with the consequences.

How Good Is David Bakhtiari?

David Bakhtiari is one of the best offensive tackles in all of football and is a major reason why the Green Bay Packers have one of the best offenses in the NFL.

If they don't have him this year, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers might not find the same type of success that they have been throughout the past few years. The Packers were still one of the best teams in all of football a year ago, but that was with a much better team than they currently have.

Can The Packers Win A Super Bowl?

It's tough to say at the moment if the Green Bay Packers are a legit Super Bowl Contender. Obviously, when they have a guy like Aaron Rodgers running ship, they have to feel extremely confident about what they're going to be able to accomplish. However, this Green Bay Packers team has had way too many disappointing postseason runs in the past and it looks like there's a possibility that this happens once again.

This isn't a great sign at all for Green Bay and if they want to be the team that everybody knows they can possibly be, they need to figure out a way to get Bakhtiari healthy and find ways to win games in the playoffs.
