another difficult assignment this weekend when they travel to the Bay Area to play the San Francisco 49ers at Levi’s Stadium. This comes after the team easily defeated the second-seeded Dallas Cowboys during the NFL playoffs’ opening round.
The Packers are battling with a number of critical player ailments that could affect the outcome of this game between these two teams, in addition to facing heavy odds against perhaps the greatest club in the NFC on the road.
The two most prominent players on the Green Bay injury report are Jaire Alexander and AJ Dillon. Four players in particular are presently labeled as questionable for this NFC matchup in the Bay Area on Saturday, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.

If these injuries don’t prove to be too hard to overcome, the Packers might make it interesting even though the 49ers are the favorites to win and move on to the NFC Championship Game.
