What to know from Packers’ first injury report of Week 14 vs. Giants

The Green Bay Packers released the team’s first injury report of Week 14 on thursday. The team will release two more injury reports, including a final injury report on Saturday with official playing status designations before Monday night’s showdown with the New York Giants:

Here’s everything to know from Week 14’s first injury report:

— As was the case last week, the Packers listed 15 players on the injury report, including three players who did not participate and nine more who were limited on Thursday.

— New injuries: Christian Watson (hamstring), Elgton Jenkins (shoulder), Jonathan Owens (knee), Darnell Savage (chest), Quay Walker (shoulder) and Devonte Wyatt (elbow).

— Watson, Savage and Walker did not practice Thursday, putting all three in danger of missing the showdown with the Giants.

— The Packers removed Kenny Clark, Rudy Ford, Robert Rochell and Dontayvion Wicks from the injury report completely.

— Aaron Jones (knee) remains limited. Matt LaFleur didn’t get into his workload or potential to play vs. the Giants when asked Thursday.

— Cornerback Eric Stokes, who is still on injured reserve, practiced in full on Thursday. His return is likely coming on Monday night. The Packers must still activate him to the 53-man roster.

— The following players were limited: Jaire Alexander, De’Vondre Campbell, A.J. Dillon, Rashan Gary, Elgton Jenkins, Aaron Jones, Owens, Jayden Reed and Wyatt. The Packers were without Alexander and Jones last week.

— Tight end Josiah Deguara was a full participant. He’s missed two straight games with a hip injury but could return in New York.

— The Giants listed star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence as limited (hamstring) and starting offensive tackle Evan Neal as did not participate (ankle). Linebacker Isaiah Simmons was also limited. The Giants didn’t practice officially on Thursday so participation was an estimate. Overall, the team’s injury list is just six players long.
