Packers Send Three to IR, Including Javon Hargrave and Skyy Moore, in Brutal Roster Shuffle

The Green Bay Packers' injured reserve list is officially starting to look like a Pro Bowl alternate roster.

According to Adam Schefter, Green Bay is placing defensive tackles Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Ford, along with wide receiver Skyy Moore, on injured reserve. To balance the cosmic roster scales, they activated receiver Savion Williams.

"Adam Schefter reported the Packers activated WR Savion Williams off injured reserve and placed DT Jonathan Ford, DT Javon Hargrave and WR Skyy Moore on injured reserve."

Moore went down with an ankle injury in the second quarter of last week's 31-7 blowout over the Chicago Bears. He was spotted in a walking boot earlier this week, which is never the fashion statement you want from a guy trying to fill the void left by Jayden Reed's season-ending surgery. Moore heads to the shelf with seven catches for 35 yards on the year, leaving the slot position looking dangerously thin.

Losing Hargrave to an Achilles injury and Ford to a calf issue is a brutal double-whammy for the defensive interior. Ford had chipped in five tackles and half a sack in three games this season. Losing two massive bodies in the middle of the trenches right before playing the Dallas Cowboys is the kind of math that makes defensive coordinators age in dog years.

The Packers are sitting at 3-2 and trying to keep pace in a crowded NFC North. If you are looking at the board for this upcoming Sunday night clash against Dallas, you have to factor in that Green Bay's defensive front just got significantly lighter and their receiving corps is running out of healthy ankles.

Williams returning from his own ankle issue gives Jordan Love another option out wide, but he is still officially listed as questionable. Green Bay has to figure out how to stop the run and patch together a passing attack by kickoff, or this solid start to the season is going to evaporate fast.
