Linebacker Clay Matthews is returning from a hamstring injury that kept him out in a Week 6 loss. His return will give the Green Bay defense a great boost.
Fantasy Football Week 7: Clay Matthews And Al Harris’ Return Make Green Bay Defense Dangerous
↵Matthews alone makes the Green Bay defense relevant in fantasy football. Here are his sack numbers from his first five games this year before being injured: 3, 3, 0, 1 and 1.5. That’s a whopping 8.5 sacks through five games. There’s no reason to think he won’t continue that upon his return.

Meanwhile Green Bay will also be getting back cornerback Al Harris. He started the season on the PUP list and after a full week of practice may play on Sunday. Harris plus Charles Woodson makes this Green Bay defense legit in fantasy football.
↵They’re currently 10th in points allowed but the return of Matthews after a one-week hiatus as well as seeing Harris back on the field will make the defense as strong as they have been all year.
