The Packers are struggling to keep defensive backs on the field, and now another one is headed to injured reserve.
According to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, Packers safety Chris Banjo is going on IR.
Banjo apparently has a short-term injury, and might have been available in three or four weeks. But with a spate of other problems in the secondary, the team apparently decided it could not wait that long.
The Packers have recently put cornerback Sam Shields on IR, and Damarious Randall will miss some time after surgery to repair a groin injury so they needed the bodies.
Banjo, 26, has been a solid backup and special teams player, and will be a restricted free agent after this season.
