Endzone Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Homies...What's the concensus regarding Jennings ankle? Although listed as questionable, how has he looked in practice? Last I read from last week, it appeared the sprain was not as bad and he was walking around. Any info would be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Check back tomorrow too it looks good so far. Notebook: Rookie Jennings returns to practice By Rob Demovsky rdemovsk@greenbaypressgazette.com Greg Jennings inched closed to returning to the lineup by taking part in a portion of Wednesday's practice. The Green Bay Packers rookie receiver, who missed Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals due to a sprained ankle, participated in most of the early practice individual drills but was held out of the team (11-on-11) periods. Jennings was injured late in the second quarter of the Oct. 22 victory at Miami and was on crutches after the game. He made quick improvement last week and nearly was cleared to play Sunday against Arizona after working out for the coaches and team doctors a few hours before kickoff. "He made a lot of progress last week," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "We're just trying to get over that last hurdle." Jennings was listed as questionable, meaning there is a 50-50 chance he won't play, but that was an upgrade over last week, when he was listed as doubtful. "We're going to see how he feels in the morning," McCarthy said after Wednesday's practice, "and then our goal is try to let him go tomorrow." Even after missing the last 1½ games, Jennings ranks second among NFL rookies in receiving yards (378) and second in the NFC in receptions by rookies with 21. Part of the debate about whether to play Jennings is the fear that he could have a setback early in the game that could leave the Packers short-handed at receiver. If they activated Jennings, there's a chance they wouldn't be able to have all five of their receivers on the 45-man, game-day roster. "Friday's practice will be a big indication of which way we go, whether it's four or five receivers," McCarthy said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwolf68 Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 If Jennings practices today I'd say he is ready to go. Only a setback will prevent it. With Donte' Stallworth out on bye I have to decide between Jennings and Reche Caldwell and if Jennings is ready I'm putting him in there. I liked the way Caldwell played Monday Night, but I need to see more...Jennings has been super this season and Im anxious to get him back into my lineup.

His game requires sharp breaks so I wonder if he can go. If he does it will affect how he runs his normal routes. I would think he'll be limited if he does go.

msaint Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 Rotoworld today: Greg Jennings (questionable) reportedly has some lingering soreness in his injured ankle that has again put his status for Week 9 in doubt. The rookie wideout will be a game-time decision against the Bills after tweaking his ankle again late in the week. Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said Jennings looked "tentative" in practice Friday. Jennings now looks like someone to keep on fantasy benches in Week 9.
