GREEN BAY, Wis. — It's the Christmas gift no Packers fan asked for: a 16th player placed on injured reserve.

Nose tackle Kenny Clark is the latest Packer sent to IR, according to ESPN's Field Yates. Clark has been dealing with an elbow injury since exiting the Packers' win against the Falcons in Week 14. The team confirmed the news Wednesday.

Clark ends the season with 55 tackles, six sacks, one forced fumble and three passes defended in 13 games. He was named a 2019 Pro Bowl alternate.

Offensive tackle Alex Light takes Clark's roster spot after serving a one-game PED suspension last week.
