Green Bay - There's no word yet on how long rookie DE Datone Jones will be sidelined, but early indications are that his sprained left ankle wasn't severe.

Once those tendons are stretched from the first sprain it is real easy to turn your ankle again. I hope this isn't a recurring problem for Datone.

Wrap him in bubble wrap.

Store him in a doomsday bunker.

I can't stand another season of CJ Wilson.

They say its nothing now until a week later... After giving it another test we actually found its not his ankle but his neck that is injured. I really don't listen to the medical news on em anymore.

As for Jones, I'm not overly concerned, but I would rather they just get him healthy for week 1 v. SF.
