  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Won't return for Week 14

    Alexander (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Alexander appeared to be on track to play in Thursday night's divisional matchup after opening the Packers' week of practice with consecutive estimated limited sessions. However, he downgraded to no participation Wednesday, suggesting that his knee injury remains too significant for him to play in Week 14. The Packers are expected to continue starting Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine as their top outside cornerbacks until Alexander recovers from his knee issue.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Officially limited Monday

    Alexander (knee) was a limited participant in Monday's practice. Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reported earlier Monday that Alexander was practicing, but the Packers' injury report clarified that it was a limited session. The All-Pro cornerback has missed three of Green Bay's last four games due to a partial tear in his PCL; however, Monday's limited session suggests he has a shot at returning for the Week 14 divisional matchup against the Lions.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Continues to practice

    Alexander (knee) is practicing Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Alexander has now logged back-to-back practices ahead of the Packers' divisional showdown with the Lions on Thursday.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Won't play in Week 13

    Alexander (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Dolphins, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Alexander is now in line to miss his fifth game of the season after sustaining a knee injury in the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars. Green Bay's secondary could struggle without Alexander, especially against a Dolphins offense averaging 255.4 passing yards and 2.2 passing touchdowns per game since Tua Tagovailoa returned from injury in Week 8. The Packers are expected to start Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine as their top outside corners in Thursday night's contest.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Estimated as DNP

    Alexander (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimation, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports. The Packers' All-Pro cornerback is dealing with a tear in his PCL that's sidelined him for two of the team's last three games, and Monday's estimated DNP is likely an indication that he'll miss further time. If Alexander is unable to practice in at least a limited capacity either Tuesday or Wednesday, he'll likely be held out of the Packers' Week 13 matchup against the Dolphins on Thanksgiving.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Could miss time due to PCL injury

    Alexander said Thursday that he's dealing with a "tear on my PCL" and may miss some time, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports. Alexander initially suffered the injury in the waning moments of the Packers' Week 8 win at Jacksonville, which sidelined him Week 9 against the Lions. Following a Week 10 bye, he was active this past Sunday in Chicago but lasted just 10 snaps on defense before aggravating the knee in question. With no clear timetable for a return to action, Alexander may miss his fourth game of the campaign Sunday versus the 49ers, which would allow Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine to start at cornerback for Green Bay.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Leaves game with knee injury

    Alexander (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears. Alexander came into Sunday's game nursing a knee injury, and it appears he aggravated the issue. If he's unable to return, Eric Stokes will likely take over at corner opposite starter Keisean Nixon.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Will play vs. Chicago

    Alexander (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. Alexander was unable to play against the Lions in Week 9 due to a knee injury. However, with the Packers on a bye in Week 10, Alexander took advantage of the additional rest and returned to practice this week on a limited basis. That appears to be good enough for the 2018 first-round pick to suit up for Sunday's NFC North clash.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Limited Wednesday

    Alexander (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports. Alexander has been sidelined since sustaining a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars. However, Wednesday's limited session suggests he could be nearing a return to the field. Alexander's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bears.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Won't face Detroit

    Alexander (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions. Alexander injured his knee in the fourth quarter of last week's win over the Jaguars and missed practice all week. Eric Stokes and Corey Ballentine should see increased snaps at cornerback against Detroit.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Questionable for Sunday

    Alexander (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Alexander was unable to practice all week after sustaining a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars. However, Friday's injury report indicates that the veteran corner still has a chance to suit up in Week 9. If Alexander is sidelined Sunday, Eric Stokes and Corey Ballentine (ankle) could see increased work with the Packers' first-team defense.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Avoids serious injury

    Initial testing on Alexander's right knee injury Monday did not reveal any significant concerns, and the Packers will continue to monitor his soreness throughout the week, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. The cornerback sustained the injury late in Sunday's win over the Jaguars, but Demovsky's report suggests Alexander avoided what could have been a serious issue. His practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication on whether he can play in this Sunday's matchup with the Lions.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Limited to open week

    Alexander (groin) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. It's not much of a surprise to see Alexander on the Packers' injury report, given that he's played through a groin issue over the last two weeks. Unless he downgrades to a DNP over the next two practices, he should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Alexander played every single defensive snap during the Packers' win over the Texans on Sunday, picking up three solo tackles in the process.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Ready to rock

    Alexander (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports. The All-Pro corner practiced in a limited fashion throughout the week due to a groin injury, but it appears he'll play through the pain for the second consecutive game Sunday.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Still working through groin injury

    Alexander (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice session. Alexander returned from a two-game absence in Week 6 against the Cardinals, and he finished the game with one solo tackle, one pass defended and one fumble recovery across 44 defensive snaps. Alexander was limited in all three practices last week, so unless he suffers a setback over the next few days, he should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Texans.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Could return Week 6

    Alexander (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Alexander has missed Green Bay's last two contests after sustaining quadriceps and groin injuries in the Packers' Week 3 win over the Colts. However, the All-Pro cornerback was able to log three consecutive limited practice sessions and has a chance to suit up in Week 6. If Alexander misses his third consecutive game Sunday, the Packers could push slot corner Keisean Nixon to the outside, play Javon Bullard at nickel and line up Evan Williams next to Xavier McKinney at safety, as the team did in Week 5.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Gets questionable tag

    Alexander (groin) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Alexander missed the Packers' Week 4 loss to the Vikings due to both a quadriceps and groin issue. He kicked off this week with a DNP, but subsequently practiced consecutive days in limited fashion. He is looking like a true game-time decision Sunday. If he is unable to suit up, Corey Ballentine would be next in line to start at cornerback opposite Eric Stokes, with Keisean Nixon in the slot.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: DNP to open week

    Alexander (groin) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Alexander was inactive for the Packers' Week 4 loss against the Vikings after not being able to practice in the final session leading up to the game. His DNP on Wednesday isn't a great start to the week, but the veteran corner will have two more opportunities to practice in some capacity ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams. Alexander has accrued 11 tackles (10 solo) and four passes defended (two interceptions, including a pick-six) across three regular-season games.

  • Packers' Jaire Alexander: Questionable for Week 4

    Alexander (quadriceps) is considered questionable to play Sunday versus the Vikings. Alexander did not participate at practice Friday after logging back-to-back limited sessions to open the week due to quadriceps and groin injuries. It's certainly not ideal that the cornerback is trending in the wrong direction with his participation at practice, and he will likely be a game-time decision prior to Sunday's divisional matchup at home versus Minnesota.
