GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt won’t play again this season after getting carted off the field with an ankle injury in a Thanksgiving Day victory over the Detroit Lions.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur had said after the Packers’ 31-24 triumph that “it doesn’t look good” and that Wyatt probably wouldn’t be able to return this season. LaFleur confirmed Monday that it was indeed a season-ending injury.

“Certainly he’s a guy that’s going to be pretty tough to replace,” LaFleur said. “I think it just falls on everybody else kind of raising the level of their game.”

Wyatt’s injury comes as the Packers (8-3-1) prepare to close a stretch of three straight games against NFC North opponents by hosting the division-leading Chicago Bears (9-3) on Sunday.
