Packers defensive tackle Warren Brinson missed the first three games of the season with a calf injury and he's set to miss a lot more action with a new ailment.
Brinson appeared on this week's injury report with a groin issue in addition to the calf and head coach Matt LaFleur said that it will be the reason for an extended absence from the field.
"Unfortunately I think he's gonna miss a significant amount of time," LaFleur said, via Weston Hodkiewicz of the team's website. "All he did was slip and injuries occur and a lot of times it's non-contract."
Brinson was a sixth-round pick last year. He had 13 tackles and a half-sack in 11 appearances as a rookie.
Monken Hopes for Good News on Graham's Injury
Browns defensive tackle Mason Graham had to exit Thursday's victory over the Steelers with a knee injury and was later spotted on crutches wearing a brace. Graham, the No. 5 overall pick of the 2025 draft, has been one of the team's best performers this season.
"He's a tremendously talented young player, that you could see early in the season it all coming together," Monken said. "So, it's a shame for him. But, hopefully we get good news." Graham has recorded 4.0 sacks with six tackles for loss and five QB hits so far in 2026.
Christian Parker expresses regret at play call at end of loss to Ravens
Christian Parker is a first-time defensive coordinator who was charged with fixing a unit that allowed the most points in the NFL last season. The Cowboys currently rank 30th in yards allowed and 25th in points.
It's better but not much better.
Parker has taken some heat for his decision to play man defense with seven seconds left against Lamar Jackson, who completed a 27-yard pass to Zay Flowers that set up Tyler Loop's game-winning, 56-yard field goal.
Parker admitted this week he erred with the play call.
"Oh, for sure," Parker said, via Schuyler Dixon of the Associated Press. "You know, I had an original call in mind, but overthought the situation, relative to what their mindset was going to be going to overtime, trying to get something quick, Hail Mary, all those things. So, I definitely would make a different call if that the situation came up again."
Former Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, now an analyst for NBC Sports, called Parker's decision to play man coverage "somewhat negligent" during a halftime segment on Sunday Night Football. Tomlin said Parker should have called for zone coverage in that situation to protect against what happened.
Parker said he does not listen to "outside noise."
"To be honest with you, I don't pay it any mind," he said. "We have more than enough on our plate in here to worry about what the outside noise is, whether it's good or bad. I think that regardless of how that outside noise creeps in the building, it can affect you in multiple ways. So we've just been focusing on trying to get this next one."
