Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Still not practicing
Van Ness (foot) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.
Van Ness missed last week's win over the Lions and was spotted in a walking boot Monday, signaling that he may not be that close to returning to action. It would be a positive signal if he could return to the practice field in a limited fashion this week. If he's unable to play again, Kingsley Enagbare should handle extra reps in this Sunday's divisional clash versus the Bears.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Return may not be imminent
Van Ness (foot) was spotted in a walking boot Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Van Ness has been hampered by a foot injury for much of the season and attempted a return in Week 12 against the Vikings. However, he managed only six defensive snaps in that game and was inactive for Week 13. In comments to the media, Van Ness said that he's focused on rehab, so it sounds as if he could be in for at least one more absence in Week 14 against the Bears.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Ruled out to face Lions
Van Ness (foot) did not practice Wednesday and is ruled out for Thursday's game against Detroit, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness returned from a five-game absence and took the field Week 12 versus the Vikings, but he played only six defensive snaps and appears to have aggravated the injury. He didn't practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Thursday's divisional contest, and coach Matt LaFleur said Van Ness is "day-to-day." His next opportunity to suit up will come Sunday, Dec. 7 against the Bears in Week 14.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Estimated as DNP on Monday
Van Ness (foot) was listed as DNP on Monday's estimated practice report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness missed five straight games with a foot injury prior to returning to the lineup Sunday against the Vikings. However, he played a season-low six defensive snaps against Minnesota and may have aggravated the injury.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Good to go Sunday
Van Ness (foot) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
The edge rusher entered the day with a questionable tag after practicing on a limited basis throughout the week. Van Ness last played in Week 6, though he was on the field for 45 percent of the defensive snaps or more in each of Green Bay's first four games of 2025. His usage may not match that number in his first game back.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Could be back in action Sunday
Van Ness (foot) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, but the Packers are hopeful that he'll be available to play for the first time since Week 6, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
A limited practice participant through the week, Van Ness is slated to go through a pregame workout Sunday before the Packers decide whether he'll be able to put an end to a five-game absence. Even if he ultimately avoids the inactive list and is cleared ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, Van Ness could be in line for limited snaps as part of Green Bay's edge-rusher rotation. Through five appearances on the season, the 2023 first-round selection has tallied 11 stops and 1.5 sacks.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Registers another limited practice
Van Ness (foot) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
Van Ness hasn't played since injuring his right foot against Cincinnati in Week 6. He resumed practicing (in limited fashion) last Thursday, and he's now been limited in four consecutive sessions. That gives Van Ness a chance of returning Sunday versus the Vikings, though he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend unless he's able to practice in full Friday.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Remains limited by foot injury
Van Ness (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Van Ness has missed five straight games with the foot injury. Dating back to last week, he's now logged three consecutive limited practices, so he's at least trending toward a return.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Not suiting up Week 11
Van Ness (foot) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Giants, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness was able to log a limited practice both Thursday and Friday, but that won't be enough for him to return to action just yet. Instead, the third-year defensive end will sit out a fifth straight game. Kingsley Enagbare should continue to work in a key rotational role with Van Ness sidelined again.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Questionable for Sunday
Van Ness (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness ended the week with back-to-back limited practices, and the consistency in participation likely means he is trending up ahead of Sunday's contest. However, if the 2023 first-rounder is unable to suit up this week, Kingsley Enagbare will likely continue to acquire the lion's share of rotational defensive end reps for the Packers' defense.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Limited in practice Thursday
Van Ness (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Van Ness logged his first practice in any capacity since he left the Packers' Week 6 win against the Bengals with a foot injury. The upgrade to limited participation signals a significant development in the defensive end's recovery, and if he is able to string some practices together, he may have a chance to suit up for Sunday's game against the Giants. A return to action for Van Ness would lead to a diminishing number of reps for rotational defensive end Kingsley Enagbare (knee).

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Estimated DNP on Wednesday

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Not playing Monday
Van Ness (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup versus the Eagles, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
Van Ness will miss a fourth consecutive game due to the foot injury he sustained in the Week 6 win over the Bengals. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that neither surgery nor injured reserve are currently being considered, though the injury hasn't healed as quickly as the team had hoped. Kingsley Enagbare and Barryn Sorrell should continue to see increased playing time in Van Ness's absence.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Absent from practice Thursday
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Van Ness (foot) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
Van Ness has missed three consecutive games due to a lingering foot injury, and the 2023 first-round pick hasn't been able to practice in any capacity in that span. If Van Ness is unable to retake the field in time to suit up at home against the Eagles on Monday, expanded defensive reps will continue going to Kingsley Enagbare and rookie fourth-rounder Barryn Sorrell.
