EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. Aaron Rodgers Jersey . -- The Minnesota Vikings have finalized their contract with kicker Kai Forbath, their replacement for Blair Walsh.Forbath kicked for New Orleans in 10 games last season after being let go by Washington after one game largely because the Redskins wanted to improve their kickoffs. Forbath made 87 percent of his field goal attempts (60 for 69) in three-plus seasons for Washington, the second-best rate in team history, but he had only 18 touchbacks in 2014, which was the second fewest in the league.Between the Redskins and Saints in 2015, Forbath went 10 for 15 on field goals and 35 of 36 on extra points.The Vikings also have signed rookie offensive tackle Rashod Hill off Jacksonvilles practice squad, after losing Jake Long for the season to an Achilles tendon injury.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Clay Matthews Womens Jersey .

"It just felt like it was my time to move on," she said in a phone interview from her hometown of Burlington, Ont. GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Green Bay Packers have lost their second starting offensive lineman to injury but should see another return on Sunday. And their already thin inside linebacker group just got thinner.Coach Mike McCarthy ruled out right guard T.J. Lang and linebacker Jake Ryan for Sundays game at Washington. Both left last weeks loss at Tennessee because of ankle injuries. Lang, who had his left ankle rolled into on the Packers fourth play from scrimmage last week, joined opening day starting center JC Tretter on the list of linemen who wont be available against the Redskins. Don Barclay will start in place of Lang, and Corey Linsley has started the past two games in place of Tretter.Amid the injuries, however, right tackle David Bakhtiari is expected to return this week after dropping out against the Titans because of a right knee injury. Bakhtiari has been practicing with a brace on his right knee this week.Bakhtiari looks good, McCarthy said Friday. I have no concerns.With the loss of Ryan, the Packers will have only two available inside linebackkers -- Blake Martinez and Joe Thomas -- unless they make a roster move. Rashan Gary Jersey. McCarthy wouldnt say whether he might use Clay Matthews at inside linebacker, but at least Matthews looks on track to return after missing the past three games because of a hamstring injury.I feel good, I feel healthy, and I plan on being out there, barring any setbacks, Matthews said after Thursdays practice.Matthews was on track to return two weeks ago but experienced a setback.Tight end Jared Cook, who hasnt played since his Week 3 ankle injury, also looks likely to play.So far so good, McCarthy said Friday. I look at Jared and Clay in a similar fashion. I thought they came out of the practice yesterday and did some good things. Today and tomorrow hopefully were progressing to those guys playing on Sunday.The Packers (4-5) have lost three straight games and four of their past five but remain only one game out of first place in the NFC North.
