GREEN BAY, Wis. — Green Bay Packers cornerback Eric Stokes' comeback from a foot issue that sidelined him for nearly a year lasted only four plays before he got knocked out for multiple weeks again. Stokes went back on injured reserve Wednesday after hurting his left hamstring three days earlier in a 19-17 loss at Denver. The 2021 first-round pick from Georgia was playing his first game since injuring his right knee and foot last November in a 15-9 loss at Detroit. The Packers also placed safety Darnell Savage on injured reserve with a calf issue.
