Minnesota opened the season with six wins before losing to the New York Giants last week. The Packers are in second place in the NFC North.
Bennett underwent surgery on his left foot last spring after injuring it in a freak treadmill accident. After suffering a setback in training camp, Bennett was placed on the PUP list.
