Another week, another dynamic defensive front for Packers to battle - Packers.com

Jenkins returned last week from a three-game absence, while Patrick filled in for Josh Myers for a second straight week after the rookie center left the Chicago game with a knee injury in the first quarter. Myers, who sat out Week 5 at Cincinnati with a finger issue, is expected to miss multiple games, and Rodgers called it "priceless" to have a veteran of Patrick's caliber to call upon in times like these.

"I tell him every single time he's out there that I love going to battle with him," Rodgers said, "because he's the kind of guy you know who's always going to have your back."

LaFleur said Patrick graded out the highest amongst the offensive linemen in Chicago despite coming off the bench with nothing but scout team reps under his belt during the week.

Rodgers also had high praise for Turner, whose versatility in both 2019 and '20 was invaluable to the offensive line, but who has settled in at right tackle and potentially deserves Pro Bowl attention, according to his quarterback.

"When he came here, you saw his ability at guard … but man, he's a real good tackle," Rodgers said. "He's got such a good feel, good punch, good set, very athletic.

"He's had a really nice season so far. We've played a number of really good pass rushers on both sides – left side and right side – and I feel like he's played really, really well."

More of the same will be required this week. LaFleur added that keeping a good run-pass mix while also changing up the types of passes the Packers call – play-action, bootleg, quick release, deep drop – will hopefully keep Washington's pass rush from getting in any kind of groove.

"If you don't do that against this group," LaFleur said, "you're gonna be in for a long day."
