Here's the latest injury update from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:

http://blogs.jsonline.com/packers/archive/2008/08/24/sitton-jones-have-sprained-knees.aspx

Sounds like Jones' injury is a little more serious than expected, as he is week-to-week. Sitton is also week-to-week, but his knee is a little worse off than Jones' knee. Nothing else too bad. The Journal-Sentinel also mentions in another blog entry that Ryan Grant was taking handoffs on the practice field today.

no such thing as a non-serious knee injury, imo

Yup Bozz......in the NFL, any knee injury is bad.
Hopefully there isn't structual damage.

Bad news for the both of them. James Jones because his presense makes the other wide outs better out there. And Sitton because that line is messed up enough already with the injury to Wells. Hopefully they will both benefit from another preseason game..Take it off..and then be ready to go for week one!!

Josh Sitton is our starting G? I didn't know that.

I hope both injuries are not too serious.

Wow, I'm a bit concerned for James Jones. Hopefully it will be temporary and good to go. This is a good opportunity for Jordy to prove his worth, and I'm sure he will.

Sitton had the inside track on the starting RG spot. That's why he started in Denver even though he struggled (along with the other interior linemen) in San Francisco. And that's why Jason Spitz was moved to LG. But the injuries to Wells, and now Sitton, have forced the coaches to do some shuffling. It does look like there is a good chance that Wells, anyway, will be ready for the first regular season game.

Thanks Greg.

Wells, Cliffy, and Tauscher are the only offensive linemen I'm high on right now. I'm really hoping Wells is ready to play against MN.

This article sheds more light on the James Jones injury. Hope this doesn't keep him off the field too long.
