The Green Bay Packers are looking to clinch a spot in the NFC Championship game for the third straight season Saturday evening. In order for them to do that, they need to defeat the San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round.

Kickoff is just over 48 hours away and the Packers' injury woes continue to affect the team. Former Pro Bowl left tackle David Bakhtiari missed practice on Thursday, still dealing with recovery from his torn ACL early this season. He is officially listed as questionable.

Bakhtiari returned from the ACL injury in Week 18, logging 27 snaps against the Detroit Lions. Logically, it would be assumed he would be available this week. He missed practice on Tuesday, but then practiced in a limited capacity Wednesday. However, after missing Thursday's practice, it begs the question if he will suit up this weekend. A mid-week downgrade is typically not a great sign.

It's possible the team saw what they wanted to see Wednesday and don't want to push it. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said “He’s working his tail off… and we'll see where he's at,” according to ESPN's Ron Demovsky.

If Aaron Rodgers is without his left tackle, that's a tough pill to swallow. But he has been without him most of the season, so it won't be new. The 49ers still do not know if they will have their best pass rusher, Nick Bosa, for the game Saturday. If Bosa plays, he'll look to take advantage of Bakhtiari's potential absence.
