JAIRE ALEXANDER NEWS

Limited Wednesday Alexander (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.

Impact Alexander has been sidelined since sustaining a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars. However, Wednesday's limited session suggests he could be nearing a return to the field. Alexander's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bears.

Impact Alexander was unable to play in the Packers' last game before their bye due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 8 at Jacksonville, but it now seems like he could avoid missing any more game action with that issue. Green Bay's first official practice report of the week Wednesday will shed more light on his potential availability for Sunday.

Impact Alexander was unable to practice all week after sustaining a knee injury in the fourth quarter of the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars. However, Friday's injury report indicates that the veteran corner still has a chance to suit up in Week 9.

Past groin issue Alexander (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Alexander was limited in practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but he practiced in full Friday, indicating that he's moved past his groin injury. The All-Pro cornerback helped hold Stefon Diggs to five catches for just 23 yards against the Texans in Week 7. Alexander will have his hands full again Sunday, as rookie Brian Thomas currently ranks sixth in the NFL with 513 receiving yards through seven games.

Limited to open week Alexander (groin) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session.

Impact It's not much of a surprise to see Alexander on the Packers' injury report, given that he's played through a groin issue over the last two weeks. Unless he downgrades to a DNP over the next two practices, he should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Alexander played every single defensive snap during the Packers' win over the Texans on Sunday, picking up three solo tackles in the process.

Ready to rock Alexander (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact The All-Pro corner practiced in a limited fashion throughout the week due to a groin injury, but it appears he'll play through the pain for the second consecutive game Sunday. Expect Alexander to start opposite Eric Stokes as part of the Packers' top outside cornerback duo in Week 7.

Still working through groin injury Alexander (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice session.

Impact Alexander returned from a two-game absence in Week 6 against the Cardinals, and he finished the game with one solo tackle, one pass defended and one fumble recovery across 44 defensive snaps. Alexander was limited in all three practices last week, so unless he suffers a setback over the next few days, he should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Texans.

Returning to action in Week 6 Alexander (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Alexander sat out Weeks 4 and 5 due to what first was termed a quad injury and then a groin issue, but a trio of limited sessions during Week 6 prep was enough for him to make his return to action this Sunday. He'll resume his role as the Packers' No. 1 cornerback as the team looks to stop an Arizona offense that features QB Kyler Murray, RB James Conner, WRs Marvin Harrison and Michael Wilson and TE Trey McBride.

Could return in Week 6 Alexander (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Alexander has missed Green Bay's last two contests after likely sustaining quadriceps and groin injuries in the Packers' Week 3 win over the Colts. However, the All-Pro cornerback was able to log three consecutive limited practice sessions and has a chance to suit up in Week 6. If Alexander misses his third consecutive game Sunday, the Packers could push slot corner Keisean Nixon to the outside, play Javon Bullard at nickel and line up Evan Williams next to Xavier McKinney at safety, as the team did in Week 5.

Limited to open week Alexander (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session.

Impact Alexander has missed the last two games due to a groin injury, but the fact he opened the week as a limited participant, rather than as a DNP, indicates that the veteran corner is progressing through his injury.

Inactive again Alexander (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Alexander will miss a second straight game after a groin injury popped up ahead of the Packers' Week 4 loss to the Vikings. However, Green Bay will have Carrington Valentine available after he also missed last week, and he should start opposite Eric Stokes versus Los Angeles. Alexander logged limited practices Thursday and Friday of Week 5 prep, so he should have a good chance of returning to action in Week 6 against the Cardinals.
