Packers’ young OL goes down with season-ending injury

The Green Bay Packers suffered a significant setback in NFL training camp Tuesday, as promising offensive lineman Travis Glover sustained a season-ending injury. As the Packers continue to gear up during training camp for the 2025-26 NFL season, the loss of a young pass blocker like Glover puts added pressure on the Packers offensive line, sure to test the team’s depth and resilience early in the preseason. The latest injury update from Green Bay also puts the spotlight on the team’s options heading into a crucial year.

Glover, entering his second NFL season, showed early promise after being drafted in the sixth round by the Packers in 2024. The offensive lineman appeared in seven games as a rookie, logging snaps at both guard and on special teams. Reports from NFL training camp indicated he was competing for a valuable swing role on the team’s offensive line this summer. However, Glover suffered a torn latissimus dorsi muscle, an injury that will require surgery and force him to miss the entire 2025 campaign. The Packers Wire took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to confirm the tough break for Glover and Green Bay.

“Packers offensive lineman Travis Glover, who played in seven games as a rookie last season, needs season-ending shoulder surgery.”

As a result of the injury update, the Packers must quickly re-evaluate their depth chart. The offensive line was already a storyline entering training camp, with several backup positions up for grabs. Kadeem Telfort and Donovan Jennings have both impressed in camp, while veteran Lecitus Smith offers versatility inside. With rookie John Williams also sidelined due to a back issue, every healthy lineman now becomes critical to protecting quarterback Jordan Love. The offensive line will lean on starters Rasheed Walker, Aaron Banks, Elgton Jenkins, Sean Rhyan, and Zach Tom, but depth will be tested as preseason injuries mount.

The Packers remain determined to build on last season’s playoff run, aiming to push past last year’s wild card exit against the Philadelphia Eagles. Losing Glover for the year is a setback for the offensive line, but Green Bay continues to look for bright spots in NFL training camp. Coaches and fans are closely watching young prospects to see who can step up and fill the void. As Green Bay pushes forward, the focus will remain on roster resilience and preparing for a deep playoff run in 2025.
