Tom (back/knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Tom drew the questionable tag for Week 18 after being limited in practice all week due to back and knee injuries. He'll end up missing a third consecutive game, though he may have been able to play Sunday if the Packers had something to play for, but Green Bay is locked in as the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs, so Jordan Morgan will once again draw the start at right tackle. Given his ability to work in practice this past week, Tom is trending toward being available for the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs.

Packers' Zach Tom: Questionable for Week 18
Rotowire
Tom (back/knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Tom was limited in practice all week due to knee and back injuries and has a chance to return Sunday from a two-game absence. Given that the Packers are locked in as the seventh seed in the NFC, the team could opt to sit Tom and give the fourth-year pro another week of rest before the wild-card round of the playoffs. If that were to be the case, then Jordan Morgan would likely draw the start at right tackle.
