Packers may lose Nick Perry (hand) for season

Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Nick Perry (hand) might not return in 2016.

What It Means:

Perry received surgery for what head coach Mike McCarthy referred to as a "significant" left hand injury that occurred during the first half in Week 13. The 2012 first-round draft pick has never played a full season in the NFL. Green Bay takes on the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday.

Perry has started all 12 games for the first time in his career, recording 32 tackles and eight sacks. The Packers rank 22nd in the NFL in schedule-adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points allowed per play.
