From ESPN Research: The Packers' 419 yards rushing (59.9 per game) are the second-fewest by any team in the first seven games of a season in the last 35 years.
Only the 2019 Bengals had fewer (372) in their first seven games. That Bengals team finished 2-14.

X-Rays were negative, and he has an MRI today. But high-ankle sprains are often 4-6 week injuries.
