Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Kenny Clark returned to practice on Thursday, but coach Matt LaFleur confirmed he was limited by a back injury during the session.
“He was really limited, but we’re hopeful he’ll be alright,” LaFleur said Thursday.
Clark, the Packers’ disruptive interior lineman, missed Wednesday’s practice.
The Packers will release official injury designations on Friday, two days before they host the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Divisional Round on Sunday at Lambeau Field.
Clark played in all 16 games in 2019. He finished with six sacks, tying a career-high set last season, plus nine tackles for losses and seven quarterback hits.
Only one interior defensive lineman – All-Pro Aaron Donald – produced more total pressures than Clark this season. He figures to have an attractive matchup against Seahawks center Joey Hunt on Sunday.
