Another week, another possible torn Achilles tendon for a member of the Green Bay defense.
Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, defensive tackle Javon Hargrave is believed to have suffered that injury late in Sunday’s 31-7 win over the Bears.
Hargrave, 33, signed with the Packers in the offseason. A third-round pick of the Steelers in the 2016 draft, he has spent four years in Pittsburgh, three in Philadelphia, two in San Francisco, and one in Minnesota.
Last Sunday, linebacker Edgerrin Cooper was lost for the year with a torn Achilles tendon.
While an MRI will be needed to confirm the injury, a torn Achilles isn’t difficult to diagnosis without imaging. If the tendon is torn, it’s usually obvious.
