The Green Bay Packers will be without their starting kicker and a starting defensive tackle in the Week 6 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Earlier this week, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said kicker Brandon McManus' quad injury was a "major concern" heading into Sunday's matchup with the Bengals.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that the Bengals' QB search involved "calling nearly all teams" with three QBs or a viable practice-squad option.

CINCINNATI, Ohio — Despite being listed on the injury report with an illness and not practicing on Friday, Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is officially active for today’s matchup vs. the Packers in Green Bay. Cincinnati will be down both of its starting guards from Week 1 with rookie left guard Dylan Fairchild (knee) being listed as inactive.

The Cincinnati Bengals shared video of quarterback Joe Flacco arriving at Lambeau Field for his first start as a Bengal, against the Packers.

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus won’t be available for their game with the Cincinnati Bengals after he injured his quadriceps in practice Wednesday.

Flacco already beat the Packers once this year as a member of the Browns, but he will be thrust into action with Cincinnati amid turmoil. The Bengals have, of course, dropped three straight and scored 12.3 points per game since QB Joe Burrow went on injured reserve.

The Bengals' 38.1% pressured rate ranks as the eighth-highest in the NFL, and against LB Micah Parsons and company, they will struggle to keep drives alive and Flacco upright. Cincinnati has scored 10 or fewer points in 2 of 3 games without Burrow.

The Cincinnati Bengals traded for veteran quarterback Joe Flacco from the Cleveland Browns on Oct. 7, in an intra-division trade that sent a 2026 fifth-round pick to Cleveland for Flacco and a 2026 sixth-round pick.
