Green Bay --- In other linebacker news, there's no news.
The Packers didn't have an update on Brad Jones, who left Sunday's game with a hamstring injury. The fact that Green Bay signed a cornerback (James Nixon) to the 53-man roster instead of an inside linebacker in light of Robert Francois heading to injured reserve may be a sign that the injury isn't serious.

Defensive coordinator Dom Capers said Monday that the team has been monitoring Jones' hamstring since he originally suffered the injury in the preseason. As Capers explained, Jones reaggravated the injury trying to contain running back Reggie Bush.

"There’s been some times he’s been limited and we’ve limited his practice reps," Capers said, "but the game when you’re spread out and you’re having to chase Reggie Bush around, really that’s where it was. He was breaking inside-out on Bush and that’s when you saw him pull up on the thing. Hopefully, he can get treatment and we can have him ready to go sooner than later.”

If Jones is forced to miss time, third-year pro Jamari Lattimore would be next in line to play next to A.J. Hawk in base.

Oh boy. This is not good.
Will the injuries not end. We have had enough for a couple of seasons.

I gotta wonder how good would the Packers be if they were at full strength.

jdlax (8h) : I can't believe one of my teams went out and wablammo just up and acquired one of the best players in the world overnight

dfosterf (12h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

beast (13h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (16h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (18h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (18h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (18h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (20h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (20h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (20h) : umm... what?

wpr (20h) : I am stunned

Mucky Tundra (20h) : RICKEY SCOOPS WAS RIGHT AGAIN!!!

Mucky Tundra (20h) : ITS HAPPENING

buckeyepackfan (20h) : DEAL IS DONE

buckeyepackfan (20h) : MICAH IS COMING TO GREEN BAY!!!!!!!!!

wpr (28-Aug) : Me do-ed it gooderly,

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
