Packers' Javon Bullard: Being evaluated for concussion
Rotowire
Bullard (head) is being evaluated for a potential concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Upgrades to limited Thursday
Rotowire
Bullard (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Bullard entered the league's concussion protocol following his diagnosis after Sunday's game against the Browns. He didn't practice Wednesday, but his ability to return to practice Thursday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- indicates that he is progressing through the five-step concussion protocol. Friday's practice report will indicate Bullard's chances of playing against the Cowboys on Sunday. If he's not cleared to play, Nate Hobbs would be in line for more snaps at slot corner.

Packers' Javon Bullard: In concussion protocol
Rotowire
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Bullard is in the concussion protocol following the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
It's unclear when Bullard suffered the injury, but he will have to pass through the league's five-step concussion protocol before returning to action, which puts him in jeopardy of missing the Packers' Week 4 clash against the Cowboys on Sunday night. Bullard's absence would open the door for Nate Hobbs to see additional work at slot corner if Bullard is not cleared to play.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Five solo tackles vs. Washington
Rotowire
Bullard logged five solo tackles during the Packers' 27-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday.
Although Bullard wasn't listed as a starter for Week 2, he still saw the field for 58 defensive snaps and finished second on the Packers in solo tackles behind Edgerrin Cooper (seven). Even with Xavier McKinney and Evan Williams serving as the starting safeties, Bullard should continue to hold a meaningful role in the Packers' defense, especially when the team rolls out an additional defensive back.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Notches nine tackles
Rotowire
Bullard tallied nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
Bullard started at safety alongside Xavier McKinney and finished second in tackles among Packers defenders in Week 1. When Green Bay puts extra defensive backs on the field, Bullard will generally be used in the slot while Evan Williams works at safety, but playing closer to the ball could allow the former more opportunities to rack up stops.

Rotowire
Bullard (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Eagles, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Nursing ankle injury
Rotowire
Bullard (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Bullard co-led the Packers in tackles during their Week 17 loss to the Vikings, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury in the process. The rookie second-round pick would avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's divisional game against the Bears if he were able to practice fully Friday.
Bullard recorded 11 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.
Bullard returned from injury and tied Edgerrin Cooper as the Packers' leading tackler in Sunday's narrow loss, tying his career best of 11 tackles in a single game. The rookie safety from Georgia has been an integral part of Green Bay's defense this season, recording 85 total tackles and one pass defended over 14 appearances. With Evan Williams (quadriceps) likely out of the Packers' Week 18 matchup against the Bears, Bullard is expected to start alongside Xavier McKinney as part of Green Bay's top safety duo.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Won't play Monday
Rotowire
Bullard (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game versus the Saints.
Bullard missed last Sunday's win over the Seahawks with an ankle injury, which also kept him sidelined during practice Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week. The rookie safety will now turn his attention toward getting healthy for the matchup versus Minnesota on Sunday, Dec. 29. With Bullard out and fellow rookie Evan Williams (quad) listed as questionable, it's possible that core special-teamer Zayne Anderson will have to step into a starting role opposite free safety Xavier McKinney.

Rotowire
Bullard (ankle) didn't practice Friday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Bullard has not returned to practice since sustaining an ankle injury in the Packers' Week 14 loss to the Lions. He likely needs to practice in a limited capacity Saturday to have a chance at suiting up Monday night, when the Packers host the Saints. If Bullard misses his second consecutive game in Week 16, expect Keisean Nixon to move to slot corner, with Carrington Valentine starting as one of Green Bay's outside corners.
