Josh Jacobs Josh Jacobs Will come off exempt list Monday
Fri, Oct 16, 2026, 2:57 PM
Jacobs (personal) will be removed from the Commissioner's Exempt List on Monday and be eligible to play as soon as the Packers' Week 7 game at Detroit, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
Analysis: Jacobs' playing status has been in limbo since his May arrest following a domestic incident that led to the running back pleading no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and criminal damage to property in early September. He since has missed the first five games of the season and will miss a sixth contest Sunday, and while he'll be able to practice next week and make his 2026 debut on Sunday, Oct. 25, the NFL will keep its investigation of Jacobs open, reserving the right to add further discipline if new information comes to light, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. |
Returns to practice Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 7:32 PM
Nixon (groin) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Nixon sat out Wednesday's practice session because of a groin injury, but he was able to get back on the field in a limited capacity Thursday. Whether he ends up carrying an injury designation into the weekend may depend on his activity Friday, when Green Bay will release its final injury report of the week. |

No limitations at practice Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 7:27 PM
Williams (illness) was a full participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Williams popped up on Green Bay's injury report with an illness Wednesday, but it looks like he's now over it as Sunday's game versus the Cowboys approaches. He is in line for a big role at safety in Week 6 against a pass-happy Dallas offense. |
Savion Williams Savion Williams Logs another limited practice
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 7:20 PM
Williams (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Williams still hasn't been able to manage a full practice since Green Bay opened his 21-day practice window ahead of its Week 5 contest versus the Bears, and now his status for Week 6 is up in the air. He'll likely have to upgrade to full participation at practice before the Packers officially activate him from their injured reserve list. |
Skyy Moore Skyy Moore Sits out again Thursday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 1:42 PM
Moore (ankle) remained a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Moore injured his ankle in the Week 5 win over the Bears and seems to be trending toward a Week 6 absence Sunday against the Cowboys, which would open the door for Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant to take on larger roles behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. The Packers would also need to find an alternative option to return kickoffs and punts if Moore sits, with Sturdivant, Melton, Golden and Pierre Strong among the top candidates to contribute in those situations. |

Josh Jacobs Josh Jacobs Files civil suit Wednesday
Thu, Oct 15, 2026, 1:15 PM
Jacobs filed a civil suit Wednesday seeking a permanent injunction restricting access to records pertaining to his May 23 altercation with a woman at his home, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After being arrested following the domestic incident, Jacobs appeared in court Sept. 10 and pleaded no contest to charges of battery and criminal destruction of property. He was ultimately convicted of battery and fined $1,000, while agreeing to a deferred judgment agreement on a charge of damage to property. Later that month, a judge lifted a temporary seal of the records pertaining to the case and turned the decision whether to release part or all of the records over to the Hobart/Lawrence Police Department. Jacobs has appealed the release of those records, which could further delay the NFL's efforts to wrap up its investigation into the running back and levy a potential suspension. So long as the NFL's investigation is ongoing, Jacobs will remain on the commissioner's exempt list. |

Practice window opened
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 8:53 PM
Riley (Achilles) had his 21-day practice window opened by the Packers on Wednesday, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Riley has been on the active/PUP list since Aug. 31 while continuing to recover from a torn Achilles tendon. The defensive lineman made his return to practice Wednesday, logging a limited session to open the week. With Javon Hargrave (Achilles) done for the season, Riley's return to action will be a welcomed one, whenever that may be. |

Misses practice Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 7:13 PM
Nixon (groin) did not participate at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Nixon is dealing with an apparent groin injury to open the week after recording six total tackles (four solo) and a pass defensed during the team's 31-7 win over the Bears in Week 5. The cornerback will have two more chances to return to practice before Sunday night's contest against the Cowboys. |
|
Dealing with illness
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 7:04 PM
Williams (illness) was a limited participant at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Williams is dealing with an illness to open the week, and he was unable to be a full participant at practice as a result. The safety will have two more chances to log a full practice before Sunday night's matchup with the Cowboys. |

Skyy Moore Skyy Moore Unable to practice Wednesday
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 6:12 PM
Moore (ankle) did not participate at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Moore was sidelined at practice to open the week, as expected. The wide receiver suffered an ankle injury during the team's 31-7 victory over Chicago in Week 5, and he was using a scooter to get around the locker room while his left foot was in a boot Wednesday, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. Moore seems unlikely to be available for Week 6, and if he is unable to play, Bo Melton and J. Michael Sturdivant would both be candidates to see an increase in opportunities on offense versus Dallas. |

Skyy Moore Skyy Moore Not practicing to kick off Week 6
Wed, Oct 14, 2026, 1:25 PM
Moore (ankle) wasn't spotted at Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Moore will open Week 6 prep as a non-participant after he made an early exit from this past Sunday's 31-7 win over the Bears due to the ankle injury. He'll have two more chances to potentially get back on the practice field before the Packers decide on his status for this Sunday's game against the Cowboys. If Moore isn't available to play, Bo Melton would likely step in as the Packers' No. 3 wideout behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. |

Unlikely to return for Week 6
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 12:41 PM
Parsons (knee) isn't expected to return to practice this week ahead of the Packers' Week 6 game against the Cowboys on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It's unclear when Parsons' 21-day practice window will open, but the Packers are hoping the superstar pass rusher will be back on the field in October. Parsons is in the final stages of his recovery from a torn ACL in his left knee that he suffered in Week 15 of the 2025 season. For now, Green Bay will continue to rely on Lukas Van Ness and Barryn Sorrell as the team's top pass rushers, with Dani Dennis-Sutton and Brenton Cox providing depth at the position. |
Pierre Strong Jr. Pierre Strong Jr. Works as No. 2 back in Week 5
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 11:50 AM
Strong took the field for 24 of the Packers' 59 offensive snaps in Sunday's 31-7 win over the Bears, finishing with five carries for seven yards and three catches for 11 yards on four targets.
Analysis: Signed off the practice squad Thursday, Strong made his Packers debut three days later and ended up settling in as the No. 2 option in the backfield behind MarShawn Lloyd, who played just two more snaps but handily out-produced him (10-31-2 rushing line, one catch for six yards). Meanwhile, after committing a costly goal-line fumble in the Week 4 win over the Buccaneers, Kaleb Johnson logged just nine snaps and gained 26 yards on his seven carries. As the more capable option on passing downs, Strong looks like he could continue to work ahead of Johnson while Chris Brooks (ankle) is on injured reserve. |
Tyrod Taylor Tyrod Taylor Sees first action with Green Bay
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 11:44 AM
Taylor played the final two snaps of Sunday's 31-7 win over the Bears, losing two yards on a pair of kneeldowns.
Analysis: Signed to a one-year, $2.5 million deal in May to serve as Jordan Love's backup, Taylor was summoned off the bench for his first snaps of the season as the Packers closed out a blowout win. So long as Love stays healthy, Taylor's appearances will be limited to garbage-time situations throughout the season. |

Achilles tear confirmed
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 11:27 AM
MRI tests Monday confirmed that Hargrave tore his Achilles during the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It's another brutal blow to the Packers defense, which lost linebacker Edgerrin Cooper to the same injury in Week 4 against the Buccaneers. The next step for Hargrave is season-ending surgery, and the recovery timeline could keep the veteran defensive lineman sidelined for part of the 2027 campaign. With both Hargrave and Jordon Riley (Achilles, PUP) done for the year, 2022 seventh-rounder Jonathan Ford figures to see a significant jump in snaps on the defensive line for the rest of the 2026 season. |
Trey Smack Trey Smack Poor second half in Week 5 win
Mon, Oct 12, 2026, 9:41 AM
Smack went 1-for-3 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-3 on extra-point tries during the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Smack missed field goals from 43 and 47 yards in the fourth quarter, which came after his extra-point try early in the third missed wide left. It was by far the worst performance of the rookie's young NFL career, but luckily for him, the Packers dominated enough offensively and defensively that his kicking miscues were a wash. Smack will have a prime opportunity to bounce back in Week 6 on Oct. 18 against the Cowboys, who give up the seventh-most points in the NFL this season (27.2). |
MarShawn Lloyd MarShawn Lloyd Scores twice in dominant win
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 9:55 PM
Lloyd rushed 10 times for 31 yards and two touchdowns while catching one of two targets for six yards during Sunday's 31-7 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Lloyd was able to open the second quarter with a 10-yard touchdown run before later adding a four-yard score in the fourth quarter. The running back's 10 carries were his most since logging 13 rushes for 37 yards in Week 1 versus Minnesota. Lloyd has now compiled 112 rushing yards on 40 carries and two touchdowns while reeling in 10 of 13 targets for 55 yards and a score over five games to open the 2026 season while operating as Green Bay's primary option in the backfield with Josh Jacobs (personal) on the Commissioner's Exempt List. |
Tucker Kraft Tucker Kraft Productive with five catches in win
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 5:47 PM
Kraft brought in all five targets for 64 yards and rushed once for two yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Analysis: Kraft was an ideal complementary piece alongside top receivers Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, who combined for 12 receptions for 266 yards and two touchdowns (Watson) on the afternoon. Kraft still managed to finish with his second-highest reception and receiving yardage totals of the season, and he should remain busy in what is likely to be a high-scoring Week 6 home showdown against the Cowboys next Sunday night. |
Jordan Love Jordan Love Elite numbers in easy win
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 4:02 PM
Love completed 25 of 31 passes for 367 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding one carry for six yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.
Analysis: Love was in prime form all afternoon against the Packers' long-time arch-rival, finishing with the third-highest single-game passing yardage total of his career while facilitating 100-yard efforts for both Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. The veteran signal-caller connected with the former for both of his touchdown passes, which came from 42 and 53 yards out in the first and third quarters, respectively. Love already has a trio of 300-yard games on the season and a 10:3 TD:INT heading into a Week 6 home matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday night. |
Matthew Golden Matthew Golden Eclipses century mark in win
Sun, Oct 11, 2026, 3:51 PM
Golden secured six of seven targets for 123 yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday. He also returned two punts for 27 yards.
Analysis: As good as Golden's afternoon was, he was actually slightly outshined by fellow wideout Christian Watson, who had 20 more receiving yards on the same number of catches and one additional target. Nevertheless, Golden's afternoon included a new career high in receiving yards, as well as a career-high-tying reception total. The second-year speedster is already well on his way to a breakout campaign, and he now has had at least seven targets in four of his first five games. The 2025 first-round pick will take a 24-397-2 line on 44 targets into a favorable Week 6 home matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday night. |
