Interestingly, Green Bay did not move center Sean Rhyan, who is reportedly dealing with a high ankle sprain , to the injured reserve. Linebacker Zaire Franklin, who — like Rhyan — is expected to miss Thursday's action against the Carolina Panthers, was also not placed on the IR. Franklin reportedly has a fracture in his leg, which will keep Isaiah McDuffie (Mike) and Ty'Ron Hopper (Will) in the starting lineup.

Below is what the Packers' 53-man roster currently looks like:

RB – 4: Josh Jacobs, MarShawn Lloyd, Pierre Strong Jr. and Kaleb Johnson

WR – 6: Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Savion Williams, Bo Melton, J. Michael Sturdivant and Coleman Owen

TE – 4: Tucker Kraft, Mark Redman, Jonnu Smith and Josh Whyle

OL – 11: Jordan Morgan, Laken Tomlinson, John Williams, Travis Glover, Anthony Belton, Aaron Banks, Kevin Zeitler, Donovan Jennings, Jager Burton, Mekhi Becton Sr. and Sean Rhyan

DL – 5: Karl Brooks, Devonte Wyatt, Chris McClellan, Jordon Riley and Anthony Campbell

ED – 4: Lukas Van Ness, Barryn Sorrell, Brenton Cox Jr. and Dani Dennis-Sutton

LB – 5: Isaiah McDuffie, Ty'Ron Hopper, Nick Niemann, Kristian Welch and Zaire Franklin

CB – 5: Keisean Nixon, Brandon Cisse, Carrington Valentine, Benjamin St-Juste and Kamal Hadden

S – 4: Xavier McKinney, Evan Williams, Javon Bullard and Kitan Oladapo

Green Bay's 53-man roster is currently full. The expectation is that the team will scratch three offensive linemen (including the injured Sean Rhyan), running back Kaleb Johnson and linebacker Zaire Franklin this week against the Carolina Panthers to get down to a 48-man game-day roster. This also means, though, that the team won't be able to call up edge defender Arron Mosby, who has been available for the last two games to play special teams, without adding another scratch.

Below is the Packers' current practice squad, now that Becton has been moved up to the active roster:

There are two open roster spots on the Packers' practice squad.

Below is the updated injury list for Green Bay:

PUP – 2: TE Luke Musgrave and ED Micah Parsons

IR – 12: RB Chris Brooks, WR Jayden Reed, WR Skyy Moore, TE Thomas Yassmin, OT Zach Bako-Bewele, OL Jacob Monk, DL Javon Hargrave, DL Jonathan Ford, DL Warren Brinson, ED Collin Oliver, LB Edgerrin Cooper and S Jonathan Baldwin II
