| 01/24/13 | RB | Cedric Benson | Foot | ESPN reports the Packers and running back Cedric Benson will meet on Wednesday to talk about a new deal.

| 01/24/13 | RB | Alex Green | Knee | The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that Packers running back Alex Green still has designs on starting this season even though Green Bay added rookies Eddie Lacy and Johnathan Franklin. "Last year, I didn't do anything too good in the running game," Green said, "so I think it was a great thing for us to get back out there, make a step in the draft and help the team win football games." The report says maybe Green is at peace because he's finally healthy after a torn ACL suffered seven games into his rookie season in 2011. Last offseason, Green hurried back from the injury - prematurely, he admits now - to compete for carries in training camp. He did earn an on-again, off-again role as the team's No. 1 back. But by December the knee was sore and swollen and Green finished the 2012 season on the sideline. At no point, Green said, was he 100 percent last season. "No, I wasn't, I wasn't," Green said. "I came back, I got close to it, but once I got close, then I had a couple setbacks. I was never really quite where I wanted to be, but I made great strides in the off-season. I'm definitely getting ready for this year." (Updated 05/15/2013) | |

| 02/14/13 | RB | Jonathan Stewart | Ankle | Panthers coach Ron Rivera said running back Jonathan Stewart was "very limited" during an OTA practice.

| 02/13/13 | LB | Jon Beason | Knee | Jon Beason told the Panthers' official team website he's fine with a move to outside linebacker to better suit second-year player Luke Kuechly. Beason, who is rehabbing following shoulder and knee surgeries, has started at middle linebacker for all but eight games in his career. "I was drafted as an outside linebacker. I can play the position. I am familiar with the position. Some people may think I'm built for the position," Beason said. "But what we did not know before moving to the MIKE, was that my personality is geared toward being a MIKE linebacker. I'm greedy -- I want every play. Being in the middle allows me to have that freedom. Everybody else has to be more disciplined and be where they have to be. I enjoy (playing the MIKE), and I've done it at a high level for a long period of time." (Updated 02/13/2013) | |
