By far, the biggest shake-up this week for the Green Bay Packers’ usage came at the defensive tackle position. It’s something we probably should have expected after Green Bay’s last game. We’ll get into that later, but let’s take you through the full position-by-position breakdown of which Packers got to see action against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Following Lukas Van Ness’ foot injury, Kingsley Enagabare and Barryn Sorrell had to step up in the lineup. What’s interesting is that Rashan Gary continues to miss about two of five plays on defense, even when...
