Packers' Rudy Ford: Unable to play Week 12
Ford (biceps) is inactive for Thursday's Thanksgiving matchup with the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Ford will miss his second straight game as he continues to deal with a biceps injury. The veteran safety was estimated as a limited participant in practice all three days leading up to Thursday's contest, and he'll look to get back on the field for a Week 13 clash against the Chiefs on Dec. 3. Anthony Johnson played every defensive snap in Ford's stead last week against the Chargers and is likely in line for a similar role on Thanksgiving.

Ford was unable to practice Friday and missed the team's loss to the Rams on Sunday. However, the Auburn product was at least able to get back on the field in some capacity ahead of the team's Week 10 matchup with the Steelers, which should be a step in the right direction.

Packers' Rudy Ford: Questionable against Rams
Ford (calf) was a non-participant during Friday's practice and is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Rams.
Ford popped up as a limited participant Thursday after practicing in full Wednesday. While the nature and severity of this groin issue are still unclear, the 28-year-old appears to be in serious jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. Ford has played just about every defensive snap after stepping into the Packers' starting strong safety spot, tallying 48 tackles, four passes defended and two picks over seven games. Should Ford sit out, expect Dallin Leavitt and/or Anthony Johnson to step into bigger roles alongside free safety Jonathan Owens.
