Can NFL teams place as many players on IR that can return in three games? Or do you only get to do that for X amount of players? and can you do it for the same player more than once? Hopefully Jaire is back in three games.

CB Jaire Alexander placed on injured reserve; DL Tyler Lancaster activated from reserve/COVID-19 list; G Ben Braden and WR Equanimeous St. Brown elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for gameday.

So Alexander on IR.

Interesting they're calling up Braden now, I wonder if that means Jenkins isn't 100% or they don't fully trust something, and need him for depth, or maybe Jenkins at Center and Braden as backup at LT if needed?

Under the current rules (which I think is only year by year), each players may only return from the IR once per season, so if you go twice, your season is done (unless you are released and become a FA first)...

Teams have unlimited amount of IR returns (but only once per player).

And to return from IR, you must be on the 53 man roster first, so say a player in preseason or on the practice squad goes to the IR, their season is done (unless said player is released and becomes a FA first).

The Green Bay Packers placed Jaire Alexander on injured reserve because of a sprained AC joint, but the star cornerback's absence could extend well beyond a few weeks.

Doctors are expected to decide in the next two weeks whether Alexander, one of the top defensive players in the NFL, will miss multiple weeks or the remainder of the season, sources told ESPN.

Alexander already has had multiple doctors review the test results, and more opinions are expected over the next two weeks before a determination is made, one source told ESPN. Doctors want to see both the test results and how well Alexander's shoulder heals over a short period of time.

If Alexander needs surgery, which remains a possibility, his season would be over -- which would be a significant loss for Green Bay's defense.

Aside from the physical component, there also is a financial component that plays into Alexander's future. He currently is in the fourth year of a five-year contract, and both Alexander and the Packers want a long-term deal done sooner rather than later. The deal is expected to be among the richest contracts ever given to a cornerback.

Alexander, 24, suffered the injury while making a tackle in Green Bay's Week 4 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 2020 Pro Bowler will miss at least three games after being placed on IR on Saturday.

"It's just one of those things we're going to let heal and see where it's at down the line before making that determination," Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Friday. "But we're hopeful that it'll heal the right way and he'll be back with us in a matter of weeks."

I don’t like the sound of it, or the “unknown”. He’s a key part of our defense.
