The Packers are a bit shorthanded at running back after James Starks underwent surgery yesterday, so the club will promote RB Don Jackson from their practice squad, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (Twitter link). No corresponding move has been announced as of yet.

How many times does Eddie bust into the open field? At 4.8+, he always gets caught from behind. Don Jackson is 4.4-4.5 iirc. That's probably why they're so hesitant to activate him. Mike hates fast RBs. But this offense would look much better with a few long TD runs here and there.

Won't be a third down guy until he can pass pro. But I think he can hit the hole.

Though McCarthy said Jackson was still a member of the practice squad, a source said he is expected to be signed to the active roster Wednesday. Because he took part in the offseason program and rejoined the team in Week 1 after being released just before training camp, Jackson has a solid working knowledge of the offense and may get the starting nod Thursday night.

Any word on Don's injury status?

“This is how we’re going to have to play for a little bit until we get Knile up to speed and Don (Jackson) up to speed,” Rodgers said. “I thought (Montgomery) played great tonight, made a lot of plays. The short passing game was like an extension of the run game in games like tonight when you’re going with a lot of four-receiver packages with Ty back there (at running back).”



Kind of sounds like they expect him back. Sounds like hand, not neck.
