Green Bay Packers news, rumors and injuriesPackers | Jared Cook has high ankle sprain Tue, 27 Sep 2016 05:41:57 -0700 Updating previous reports, Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (ankle) has a high ankle sprain that could cost him some time. Fantasy Tip: The Packers have a bye in Week 4, but Cook and counterpart Richard Rodgers are only fringe options to own in fantasy at this point. Comment () | Share: Packers | Jared Cook's injury not season-ending Mon, 26 Sep 2016 10:08:27 -0700 Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (ankle) was spotted on crutches and in a boot after being carted to the locker room during a Week 3 win over the Detroit Lions. The team is still the process of determining whether Cook will be sidelined for multiple weeks or whether he'll be able to return after Green Bay's bye in Week 4. Fantasy Tip: Cook was a few inches away on a pair of targets from having an explosive first half versus the Lions, including the play which resulted in his injury when a defender rolled up on him on the downhill throw. Still, it will be hard for even the most fervent Cook owners to hold him now, especially if he is forced to miss multiple weeks. Richard Rodgers should become a near full-time player in Cook's absence and should be considered a streaming option in Week 5 versus the New York Giants. Comment () | Share: Packers | Jordy Nelson scores twice in Week 3 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 13:55:38 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson caught two touchdown passes and finished with 101 yards receiving Sunday, Sept. 25, in a 34-27 win over the Detroit Lions. Fantasy Tip: Nelson and QB Aaron Rodgers established their rhythm early and often in this game, making Nelson a solid WR1 or WR2 option in most fantasy leagues. Comment () | Share: Packers | Eddie Lacy rushes for over 100 yards Sun, 25 Sep 2016 13:48:18 -0700 Green Bay Packers RB Eddie Lacy ran 17 times for 103 yards in a 34-27 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Sept. 25. Fantasy Tip: Although Lacy didn't score, he did help the Packers' ground game show off a bit and forced the Lions to respect both the run and the pass. Lacy's game fluctuates from week to week, however, so beware if you put him in your lineup. Comment () | Share: Packers | Aaron Rodgers has four TDs in Week 3 Sun, 25 Sep 2016 13:39:59 -0700 Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers threw for four touchdowns and finished with 204 yards passing Sunday, Sept. 25, in a 34-27 win over the Detroit Lions. Fantasy Tip: Rodgers completed two-thirds of his passes and allowed no interceptions in the win. After last week's shaky performance against the Minnesota Vikings, Rodgers snapped back to the quarterback all fantasy owners knew and loved. Comment () | Share: Packers | Jared Cook ruled out Sun, 25 Sep 2016 12:59:33 -0700 Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (ankle) did not return to his team's game Sunday, Sept. 25, against the Detroit Lions due to an ankle injury. Fantasy Tip: Keep an eye on this situation and how it looks for Cook moving forward. Richard Rodgers could benefit from increased playing time if Cook can't go next week. Comment () | Share: Packers | Jordy Nelson productive in first half Sun, 25 Sep 2016 11:59:10 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson caught six passes for 101 yards and two touchdowns in the first half of the team's Week 3 game against the Detroit Lions. Fantasy Tip: Nelson has started the season off strong and appears to be completely recovered from his torn anterior cruciate ligament. He should be a No. 1 receiver in all fantasy leagues. Comment () | Share: Packers | Aaron Rodgers has big first half Sun, 25 Sep 2016 11:52:24 -0700 Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers went 12-for-18 for 174 yards and four touchdowns in the first half of the team's Week 3 game against the Detroit Lions. Fantasy Tip: Rodgers had some problems in the first two games of the season but is back to his normal self in Week 3. He is a must-start player in all fantasy leagues. Comment () | Share: Packers | Greeen Bay's Week 3 inactives Sun, 25 Sep 2016 08:31:36 -0700 The Green Bay Packers have declared LB Clay Matthews, LB Datone Jones, QB Joe Callahan, OT Kyle Murphy, DL Letroy Guion, FS Morgan Burnett, CB Sam Shields inactive for Week 3. Comment () | Share: Packers | Sam Shields to miss more time Sun, 25 Sep 2016 06:40:15 -0700 Green Bay Packers CB Sam Shields (concussion) is expected to be "cleared to play in a few more weeks," according to a source. Comment () | Share: Packers | Randall Cobb struggling as runner Sat, 24 Sep 2016 19:24:01 -0700 Green Bay Packers WR Randall Cobb is averaging 3.0 yards per carry this season when used as a running back, but head coach Mike McCarthy said Cobb hasn't had enough carries to make a judgement on the effectiveness of the package. Fantasy Tip: The Green Bay offense continues to lack explosive plays in all areas, and Cobb's value is suffering as a result. Consider him a WR3 against the Detroit Lions in Week 3. Comment () | Share: Packers | Two Packers downgraded Sat, 24 Sep 2016 14:05:08 -0700 Green Bay Packers DT Letroy Guion (knee) and DE Datone Jones (knee) have been downgraded to doubtful for the team's Week 3 game. Comment () | Share: Packers | Morgan Burnett to sit Week 3 Sat, 24 Sep 2016 11:54:48 -0700 Green Bay Packers S Morgan Burnett (groin) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Detroit Lions. Comment () | Share: Packers | Clay Matthews ruled out for Week 3 Sat, 24 Sep 2016 11:50:48 -0700 Green Bay Packers LB Clay Matthews (ankle, hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Detroit Lions. Comment () | Share: Sat, 24 Sep 2016 06:11:30 -0700 Green Bay Packers DL Mike Daniels has been fined $18,231 by the NFL for roughing the passer during Week 2's game against the Minnesota Vikings.
