The Green Bay Packers are set to add guard Laken Tomlinson from the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad. Head coach Matt LaFleur had previously dismissed the idea of reassessing their offensive line coach after the team's recent loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Tomlinson has not played this season for the Cowboys but started 10 games last year for the Texans and has extensive starting experience across multiple teams. The Packers face offensive line challenges, including injuries that have hindered their ground game, which managed just 17 rushing yards against the Falcons.
