GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed safety Javon Bullard (ankle), receiver Christian Watson (knee) and linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper (ankle) as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.
Linebacker Quay Walker (ankle), safety Evan Williams (quadricep), offensive lineman Andre Dillard (concussion) and cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) have been ruled out.
Alexander didn’t practice on Friday after being estimated as a full participant Wednesday and participating on a limited basis Thursday. It’ll be the sixth straight game the seventh-year cornerback has missed.
Watson didn’t practice this week, but Head Coach Matt LaFleur told reporters afterwards the door is “still open” for the third-year receiver to play in Minnesota.
Bullard has missed the last two games with an ankle injury but practiced all three days in limited fashion. If Bullard isn’t cleared, Zayne Anderson likely would start next to Xavier McKinney at safety.
“I think he’s done a good job of staying locked in,” said LaFleur of Bullard. “I feel like it’s pretty seamless, if you will, to get back in there. It’s just what direction we want to go.”
Green Bay didn’t issue a game status for the following players who are expected to be available: guard/tackle Elgton Jenkins (knee), cornerback Corey Ballentine (knee), and tight ends Tucker Kraft (hip) and Luke Musgrave (ankle).
The Vikings have ruled out cornerback Fabian Moreau (hip) and listed linebacker Ivan Pace Jr. (hamstring) as questionable.
Minnesota didn’t issue a game status for the following players who are expected to be available: safety Harrison Smith (foot), defensive end Jalen Redmond (concussion), linebacker Blake Cashman (hip), fullback C.J. Ham (ankle), linebacker Patrick Jones II (knee), cornerback Stephon Gilmore (rest) and tight end Josh Oliver (wrist).
The Green Bay Packers have listed three key players as questionable for their upcoming matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Unfortunately, four players have already been ruled out for the game.
The three players listed as questionable are wide receiver Davante Adams, linebacker Za’Darius Smith, and cornerback Jaire Alexander. All three players are dealing with various injuries and their status for the game remains uncertain.
On the other hand, the Packers have already ruled out four players for the game. Tight end Robert Tonyan, defensive lineman Kenny Clark, linebacker Rashan Gary, and cornerback Kevin King will all be sidelined for the divisional matchup.
This news comes as a blow to the Packers, who are hoping to secure a crucial win against their division rivals. It will be interesting to see how the team adjusts to these absences and if they can still come out on top against the Vikings.
