Packers | Josh Jacobs takes 'first handoff in a while' as he works back toward Lions game Thu Oct 22, 12:58 PM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs took a handoff on Thursday, described as "the first Josh Jacobs handoff in a while." Jacobs returned to the field on Wednesday after a stint on the exempt list, and the Packers said earlier in the week that he would get a "full week of work" ahead of Sunday's game at Detroit.

Packers | LaFleur has 'no concern' about Christian Watson, Matthew Golden despite injuries Thu Oct 22, 11:48 AM
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said on Thursday there is no concern about WRs Christian Watson (ankle) and Matthew Golden (shoulder), even though both are on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Both receivers are a little bit banged up, but they'll be out there and should be heavily involved against the Lions on Sunday. In fact, we have both Watson and Golden as top-10 WRs in Week 7. |

Packers | Jordan Love says 'no chance' back injury keeps him out Sunday Wed Oct 21, 05:26 PM
Packers QB Jordan Love said on Wednesday there is no chance his back injury keeps him out of Sunday's game at the Lions. Love said Wednesday's walk-through was good for his sore back. The Packers held only a walk-through on Wednesday, so practice participation was estimated.

Packers | Jordan Love added to injury report, limited with back injury Wed Oct 21, 04:35 PM
Packers QB Jordan Love was listed as limited on Wednesday due to a back injury. The Packers held a walk-through instead of a full practice, making the report an estimate. Love did not miss a snap in the Week 6 win over the Cowboys. In six games this season, he has completed 60 percent of his passes for 1,684 yards with 11 touchdowns and four interceptions.

Packers | Josh Jacobs back on the field after stint on exempt list Wed Oct 21, 08:38 AM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs is back on the field Wednesday after a stint on the Commissioner Exempt List. Jacobs is expected to get a full week of work ahead of Sunday's Week 7 game at Detroit.
| Footballguys view: Packers HC Matt LaFleur said he is undecided on whether or not Jacobs will play in Week 7 against the Lions. With no idea of his usage upon his return, Fantasy GMs should look at him as a 'what the heck' flex in Week 7 (if he plays). |

Packers | Josh Jacobs to get 'full week of work', status for Lions game TBD Mon Oct 19, 04:12 PM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs will practice on Wednesday and get a full week of work, coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday, but whether he plays Sunday at Detroit has not been determined. "We feel like he's in a pretty good spot. He's been training, but he's missed the exposure to football," LaFleur said. Jacobs is coming off the Commissioner Exempt List and is eligible to play in Week 7.
| Footballguys view: Jacobs has been unable to practice with the team since he went on the exempt list. So a ramp-up to get into game shape will be necessary. We spoke with Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel beat writer Tom Silverstein Sunday, and he suggested it could be a couple of games before we get the full Jacobs experience. Green Bay plays the Lions Sunday before hosting the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night in Week 8. |

Packers | Jordan Love says 'I'm good' after taking hits against Cowboys Mon Oct 19, 12:13 AM
Packers QB Jordan Love said "I'm good" when asked about the hits he took in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Cowboys. "Like we always mention, it's football. You're going to take some hits. It's part of playing the quarterback job," Love said. "You got to be able to stand in that pocket and take some hits and still deliver balls."

Packers | Javon Hargrave placed on IR, Packers 'really short' on defensive line Sat Oct 17, 05:11 PM
Packers DT Javon Hargrave was placed on injured reserve on Saturday, along with DT Jonathan Ford, ahead of Sunday night's game against the Cowboys. Both had already been ruled out for the game. Green Bay has only one backup defensive lineman for its 3-4 front, and that is only if DT Anthony Campbell, who is listed as questionable, is able to play. Practice squad edge Arron Mosby was elevated for the game.

Packers | Josh Jacobs will 'immediately return' as Packers' starting RB next week at Detroit Sat Oct 17, 08:58 AM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs will immediately return as the team's starting running back next week at Detroit. Jacobs is coming off the Commissioner Exempt List and is eligible to play next week.
| Footballguys view: MarShawn Lloyd could still have a flex-worthy role as a passing-game weapon and change of pace from Jacobs, but expect Jacobs to have a big workload right away. Lloyd isn't an essential hold in short-bench leagues after this week's possible shootout with Dallas. |

Packers | Skyy Moore ruled out for Sunday night vs. Cowboys Fri Oct 16, 03:56 PM
Packers WR Skyy Moore (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Cowboys. Moore missed practice on both Wednesday and Thursday this week. The Packers are thin at wideout with Moore out and Jayden Reed's season over due to a neck injury.
| Footballguys view: Skyy Moore had a chance at a larger role after Jayden Reed got injured. But now Moore is managing his own injury while Savion Williams nears a return. Moore is droppable in almost all formats. |

Packers | Savion Williams questionable, must be activated from IR to play vs. Cowboys Fri Oct 16, 03:56 PM
Packers WR Savion Williams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday night's game against the Cowboys. Williams is on injured reserve and must be added to the active roster to play; he has practiced in a limited capacity since the Packers opened his 21-day practice window on Oct. 7. Green Bay is thin at wideout with Skyy Moore ruled out and Jayden Reed's season over due to a neck injury. "I think where he's grown the most is his route-running ability. He's worked really hard at it," head coach Matt LaFleur said of Williams on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Williams is a fun player who can do a lot after the catch and fill the role Reed's injury vacated. He's worth stashing in dynasty and deep leagues, but he doesn't belong in a fantasy lineup yet, even if he's activated for Week 6. |

Packers | Josh Jacobs coming off Commissioner Exempt List, eligible to play next week Fri Oct 16, 03:46 PM
Packers RB Josh Jacobs is being removed from the Commissioner Exempt List on Monday and will be eligible to practice and play next week. The NFL investigation is ongoing and Jacobs can still be suspended, but as of now he will be at practice next week ahead of the Packers' Week 7 game at the Lions.
| Footballguys view: Many expected this to happen this preseason, and Jacobs will play after effectively serving a six-game suspension. The Packers have not had good production from their running backs without Jacobs out there, and Jacobs should immediately step back in as the team's primary running back. With most players across the league already feeling the wear and tear of six weeks of games and practices, Jacobs can step in with fresh legs and deliver immediate RB1 production. |

Packers | Skyy Moore misses practice again on Thursday Thu Oct 15, 01:05 PM
Packers WR Skyy Moore (ankle) did not practice on Thursday, his second straight missed session this week. Moore was injured in Sunday's win over the Bears and was in a walking boot afterward, with Bo Melton taking over in the slot.
| Footballguys view: The ankle injury was described Monday as one that could keep him out 'for a little bit' but is not season-ending. Moore was seen wearing a walking boot this week. |

Packers | Records in Josh Jacobs case 'could be released', but appeal blocks immediate release Tue Oct 13, 05:24 PM
The Hobart/Lawrence police department determined that "certain records could be released with appropriate redactions" in response to a public records request in the Packers RB Josh Jacobs case. However, one or more parties have appealed that decision, so nothing will be released immediately. Jacobs has been on the commissioner exempt list awaiting a league decision on a possible suspension.

Packers | Skyy Moore's ankle injury could keep him out 'for a little bit', not season-ending Mon Oct 12, 04:30 PM
Packers WR Skyy Moore's ankle injury might keep him out "for a little bit," but it is not season-ending, head coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday. Moore was ruled out of Sunday's win over the Bears with the ankle injury and was later seen in a walking boot.
| Footballguys view: With Moore out, Bo Melton took over the slot role, making him the third receiver to play that role for the Packers after Moore went down. WR Jayden Reed (still on IR) and Savion Williams were previously ruled out. WR J. Michael Sturdivant saw the vast majority of his snaps on Sunday as an outside receiver. Williams could return soon, but Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, and Tucker Kraft will continue to dominate the targets regardless of who the WR3 is. |

Packers | Javon Hargrave suffered a torn Achilles Mon Oct 12, 09:29 AM
Packers DT Javon Hargrave suffered a torn Achilles. Early indications on Sunday had pointed to an Achilles injury.
| Footballguys view: Hargrave, 33, signed with the Packers in the offseason. A third-round pick of the Steelers in the 2016 draft, he has spent four years in Pittsburgh, three in Philadelphia, two in San Francisco, and one in Minnesota. Last Sunday, linebacker Edgerrin Cooper was lost for the year with a torn Achilles tendon. The Packers have struggled to slow opposing ball carriers this season. These injuries won't help short that weakness up. |

Packers | Kaleb Johnson slides behind Lloyd, Strong, plays no first-half snaps vs. Bears Sun Oct 11, 05:16 PM
Packers RB Kaleb Johnson did not play a single offensive snap in the first half of Sunday's 31-7 win over the Bears, with most of his action coming late in garbage time. RB MarShawn Lloyd out-snapped Johnson, who led the Packers in rushing last week, and RB Pierre Strong Jr., fresh off his practice squad promotion, also displaced Johnson in the rotation.

Packers | Watson catches 6 passes for 143 yards, two touchdowns in win over Bears Sun Oct 11, 04:10 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Christian Watson caught 6 passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns on 8 targets in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears. He was projected for 12.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 29.3.
| Footballguys view: Watson had one easy long touchdown and one that took an exceptional concentration play to make with a defender in his face. Jordan Love's deep ball is one of the best in the league, and the chemistry he has with Watson is undeniable. If we were drafting today, Watson would be worth a first-round pick with the woeful Cowboys pass defense up in Week 6. |

Packers | Golden catches 6 passes for 123 yards in win over Bears Sun Oct 11, 04:10 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden caught 6 passes for 123 yards on 7 targets in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears. He was projected for 12.5 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 15.3.
| Footballguys view: The Packers pass offense was quiet in an ugly win over Tampa Bay last week, but it came alive against the Bears ragtag secondary in Week 5. Golden has been everything the Packers hoped he would be after they took him in the first round last year and allowed Romeo Doubs to walk in free agency, making him a starter. He's a high ceiling WR3/Flex who might be a strong WR2 if the Packers offensive line holds up the way they did in this blowout win. |

Packers | Love throws for 367 yards, two touchdowns in win over Bears Sun Oct 11, 04:10 PM
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love completed 25 of 31 passes for 367 yards with 2 touchdowns in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears. He was projected for 17.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 23.3.
| Footballguys view: Love was attacking the Bears with the deep ball in a game that would have made Dan Fouts and Don Coryell jealous. The Bears defense has been wildly inconsistent week-to-week depending on the opponent, game script, and conditions, but it appears that good offenses are going to rack up yards and points against them. Next week, the Bears travel to Atlanta to face a good offense, while the Packers host the Cowboys bottom five-defense, so expect the trends from this game to continue. |

Packers | Chris Brooks placed on injured reserve Sat Oct 10, 04:01 PM
The Packers placed RB Chris Brooks (ankle) on injured reserve on Saturday. Brooks had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears after missing practice all week, and the Packers signed RB Pierre Strong Jr. from the practice squad on Thursday.
| Footballguys view: Brooks is out of action, meaning the Packers will piece together an RBBC with MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson, and Strong. We should see Strong as the primary pass-catching back from that group. Lloyd projects as an RB3/flex, Johnson as an RB4/deep flex, and Strong as a 'what the heck' flex in PPR formats. |

Packers | Chris Brooks out vs. Bears; Lloyd, Johnson, Strong expected to make up backfield Fri Oct 9, 06:34 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears on Green Bay's final injury report of the week. Brooks left the Week 4 game with an ankle injury and missed all three of the team's practices this week.
| Footballguys view: With Pierre Strong Jr. already moved up from the practice squad to the active roster, the Packers are expected to go with a three-man backfield of MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson, and Strong. Brooks has looked solid this year, especially as a receiver. He'll try to return next week, likely pushing Strong back to the practice squad. Lloyd and Johnson have some utility as RB3s in this matchup, but the poor run game and the Bears' defense make them both less-than-ideal options. |

Packers | Chris Brooks (ankle) 'still out' of practice Thursday Thu Oct 8, 12:57 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks (ankle) remained out of practice on Thursday. Brooks also did not practice on Wednesday, when head coach Matt LaFleur said he "will be out today."
| Footballguys view: Two "DNP" designations to begin the week says that Brooks is on the wrong side of questionable. MarShawn Lloyd should be the lead back for the Packers, and (so long as he doesn't fumble again) Kaleb Johnson will get some work in the backfield as well. |

Packers | Matt LaFleur says Chris Brooks 'will be out today' at practice Wed Oct 7, 12:31 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks will not practice on Wednesday, head coach Matt LaFleur said. "He'll be out today," LaFleur said of Brooks' injury.
| Footballguys view: Brooks suffered an ankle injury against the Buccaneers on Sunday. The Packers just can't catch a break at the running back position. MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson will split time if Brooks can't play. Lloyd should be the starter, but he's mostly been unimpressive this year with a larger opportunity. Johnson showed some explosion last week, although he did have a costly fumble near pay dirt. The Packers rushing attack is a work-in-progress to say the least. |

Packers | Chris Brooks' ankle still being evaluated Mon Oct 5, 04:30 PM
Packers RB Chris Brooks is still having his injured ankle evaluated, head coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday, leaving his status open-ended.
