Since the problematic knee injury, Bakhtiari has played in just 13 out of 38 regular-season games and only has one game under his belt this season.
The Packers transition year without Aaron Rodgers took another blow with the loss of David Bakhtiari to a season-ending surgery.
“That’s the, I guess, glass-half-full part of the scenario. So, that’s where we’re at. That’s the pill I have to swallow.” According to Bakhtiari, it wasn’t fixed in the first surgery because there was a chance that it would not cause issues down the line.“I could’ve been asymptomatic the entire time with that issue, and by addressing it we just added in a problem that didn’t need to be,” Bakhtiari. “That’s why it’s like, let’s go ahead and try and see if this is a problem. If it’s not, then great, then we continue on, we dodged a bullet and life is good.
