K Brandon McManus out vs. Cincinnati | Packers-Bengals inactives Green Bay's offensive line starters all active for Sunday

OCTOBER 12, 2025 • PACKERS.COM

Inactive in Week 6 McManus (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact McManus tweaked his right quadriceps at Wednesday's practice and went down as a limited participant on all three of the Packers' Week 6 injury reports. The Packers held tryouts for kickers Greg Joseph and Lucas Havrisik on Friday, and the team signed the latter to the active roster Saturday as insurance in the event McManus couldn't go this weekend. Now that McManus has been confirmed to be unavailable, he'll hand off placekicking duties to Havrisik for at least one contest.

Packers list six questionable, rule out three vs. Bengals | Week 6 Injury Report K Brandon McManus, T Rasheed Walker questionable for Sunday

OCTOBER 10, 2025 • PACKERS.COM

Questionable for Week 6 McManus (right quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact McManus showed up on Green Bay's first Week 6 practice report Wednesday as limited due to a right quad injury, and he maintained that activity level through Friday. During a media session Thursday, he said "I plan on playing" against Cincinnati, but his status now won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. McManus added that the "tug" he felt in his quad Wednesday "felt very similar to when I had a quad-type deal in 2022," but he ended up taking the rest of that week off and handled placekicking duties on the ensuing Sunday. If there ends up being any doubt about McManus' status from a Packers perspective, the team may elevate Mark McNamee from the practice squad Saturday. If that doesn't occur, though, McManus should be good to go this weekend.

Manages limited practice Thursday The Packers listed McManus (quadriceps) as a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact According to Ryan Wood of USA Today, McManus wasn't in full uniform during the open portion of Thursday's practice, nor was he seen doing any kicking after injuring his right quad during Wednesday's workout. Even so, McManus apparently did enough on-field work to garner a limited listing for the second straight day. Though head coach Matt LaFleur expressed some concern about McManus' availability for Sunday's game against the Bengals when he spoke to the media earlier Thursday, the kicker himself said after the practice session that he expects to be ready to play by the time the weekend arrives, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. McManus' activity -- or lack thereof -- at Friday's practice will likely determine whether he takes a designation into Sunday.

Sits out practice, iffy for Sunday McManus (quadriceps) didn't participate in Thursday's practice, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

Impact Before Thursday's session got underway, head coach Matt LaFleur said that McManus was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice after injuring his right quad during the workout, per Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site. LaFleur added that McManus' injury was a "major concern right now," but the Packers aren't yet ruling the 34-year-old out from serving as their kicker Sunday against the Bengals. Though he didn't do any kicking with his injured leg Thursday, McManus was on the field and took part in individual drills, seemingly as a measure to stay mentally prepared for playing Sunday. The Packers have international pathway player Mark McNamee on their practice squad, but given his lack of prior NFL experience, it's unclear if Green Bay would be prepared to have him kick in Week 6 if McManus can't play.

Flacco to make his Bengals debut and face Packers for 2nd time this season

Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco will face the Green Bay Packers for the second time this season when he makes his Cincinnati Bengals debut on Sunday

OCTOBER 9, 2025 • Associated Press

Dealing with quad injury McManus was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a right quadriceps injury.

Impact McManus was one of 14 players listed on the Packers' first injury report following the Week 5 bye. Green Bay has kicker Mark McNamee on the practice squad roster, and he would likely be elevated for Sunday's game against Cincinnati if McManus is unable to play. McManus will have two more days to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's home contest.
