Edgerrin Cooper, a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers, missed Thursday’s practice due to a hamstring issue. Kickoff for Green Bay’s game against the San Francisco 49ers this weekend is set for 3:25 p.m. CT on FOX.Both clubs need this game because the 49ers are 5-5 and the Packers are 7-3 this season.
Cooper took on the Chicago Bears last week.The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman reported on Friday that Cooper was unable to resume practice due to a hamstring ailment. His availability against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday is negatively impacted by this. So far, Cooper’s debut season with the Packers has been excellent.52 tackles, 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery, and two pass deflections have all been recorded by him.
Cooper was selected by the Texas A&M Aggies in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. If Cooper is ruled out against the 49ers this weekend, it will be interesting to see who would start in his place. Due to a knee injury, Jaire Alexander is probably going to miss Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.
Because Christian McCaffrey might run all over them in the running game, many Packers supporters are concerned that Cooper might be benched. The defense of Green Bay has had trouble against the ground.
