GREEN BAY, Wis. – Right tackle Bryan Bulaga’s season is over, and the Green Bay Packers are one more offensive line injury away from having to play an undrafted rookie free agent.

Bulaga, a Marian Central graduate from Crystal Lake,  was placed on injured reserve Monday, becoming the Packers’ fifth significant contributor to be lost for the season. He joins linebackers Desmond Bishop (hamstring), D.J. Smith (knee) and Nick Perry (wrist), along with running back Brandon Saine (knee). Running back Cedric Benson is on IR but could return next month.

Bulaga suffered a dislocated hip against Arizona on Nov. 4, and the team’s medical staff determined it was too risky for Bulaga to return.
