Impact Play was stopped a couple times Sunday as a result of Barnes injuries, but he returned to the game after both instances and finished the day with a big number in the tackle department. Barnes has served as the Packers' primary inside linebacker of late and has more than held his own, so he figures to hang onto the job in the postseason.

Impact The 22-year-old was out the last three games after testing positive for COVID-19, and he'll return to the field Sunday despite being questionable with the calf injury. Barnes seems likely to work in a secondary role with Christian Kirksey and Kamal Martin healthy, though Martin played only nine defensive snaps last week.

Deemed questionable for Sunday Barnes (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Barnes missed the last three games after testing positive for COVID-19. He was activated from the reserve list Wednesday and was limited in practice all week due to a calf injury. He's trending toward a game-time decision. If he's able to return, it's unclear what kind of role he will have since Christian Kirksey is also healthy and has started three consecutive games.
