King is out. Burks, House, Jones, questionable.

For the Redskins, Troy Apke (S) and Shaun Lauvao (OG) are out. Zach Brown (LB), Maurice Harris (WR), Paul Richardson (WR) questionable.

Guessing Burks and House are actually "probable-questionable" and Jones is probably "questionable-questionable"

For the most part, once they removed the probable status, questionable means they're playing. I know Burks was questionable last week and didn't play, but I assume he will be a go now.

Matchups to watch

Redskins’ defensive interior vs. Lane Taylor, Corey Linsley and Justin McCray: Similar to last week, one of the strengths of the Washington defense is on its front. The Redskins invested first-round picks (both from Alabama) in each of the past two seasons. In 2017, they drafted Jonathan Allen, and this past year they took Daron Payne. The Packers’ interior offensive line should have its hands full, especially in the run game. The Redskins have stout edge rushers, too, but the Bakhtiari-Bulaga duo stumped Everson Griffen and Danielle Hunter last week, so this week should only be a continuation of last week’s solid tackle play.

Davante Adams vs. Josh Norman: Two years ago, Norman was one of the league’s best corners. He played very well for Washington last year, too, but he’s 30 years old now, and Adams is only getting better. Adams surely wants to position himself as a top-five NFL wide receiver. He can begin doing so by winning the battle against Norman.

Washington HC Jay Gruden on slowing down Rodgers :

“I think you have to hold your disguise if you are going to disguise. I think you’ve got to handle different types of formations and if you show your hand you’ve got to be sound in what you do. The most important thing is that you’ve got to make him uncomfortable in the pocket. If you give him time to move around and buy time, and find a second, third option, or fifth or sixth option because he’s scrambling around, he’s going to dice you up. The team’s that have had success, which aren’t very many, they pressure him, and that’s the key.”

It was originally quoting a tweet with a typo giving the reason for King’s absence as “Growing”. Looks like it’s since been deleted

You missed a golden opportunity to say King was undergoing a revolutionary new outpatient medical procedure - femur extension.  In and out, and back in the lineup in a week.  It’s all the rage for undersized athletes.
