Packers place Jacob Monk on IR, promote Mekhi Becton to roster
Summary

The Green Bay Packers placed offensive lineman Jacob Monk on injured reserve and have signed guard Mekhi Becton from the practice squad. Monk injured his quad during Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions while filling in for Sean Rhyan, who is recovering from a high ankle sprain. Monk will miss at least four games before being eligible to return. Becton, a former first-round pick, has been on the practice squad since September and may compete for a starting role at right guard. Rhyan’s status remains uncertain as the team hopes for his return before Week 12.
