Who is inactive for the Packers in the NFC Wild Card Round vs. Eagles?

The Green Bay Packers have made five players inactive for Sunday’s NFC Wild Card Round showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles.

The big news: Linebacker Quay Walker, safety Evan Williams and defensive lineman TJ Slaton are all active and available, although they are listed as questionable. The starting trio will be important to the backbone of the Packers defense against 2,000-yard rusher Saquon Barkley. Walker and Williams return after missing three straight games at the end of the regular season.

Receiver Christian Watson (knee) and safety Zayne Anderson (concussion) were both ruled out on Friday’s injury report. Offensive tackle Andre Dillard — who suffered a concussion — and tight end Ben Sims are also inactive, and quarterback Sean Clifford is inactive as the third emergency quarterback.

Sims played in all 17 regular-season games but is a healthy starter heading into Sunday. John FitzPatrick is active as the third tight end behind Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave.

The Packers also return defensive end Brenton Cox Jr., who missed the season finale but recorded four sacks in his final seven games in 2024.

The Packers and Eagles kick off at Lincoln Financial Field at 3:30 p.m. CT.
