Randall Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Driver, Morency return to practice By Greg A. Bedard Sunday, Sep 2 2007, 03:23 PM Green Bay - In the 45 minutes of practice open to the media, Packers wide receiver Donald Driver was on the field and participated in his first practice since spraining his right foot against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Aug. 23. Despite being in a boot as late as Thursday's game against the Tennesse Titans, Driver looked very healthy. No noticeable limp or anything else that would indicate he wouldn't be ready for next Sunday's season opener. RB Vernand Morency appeared to be participating fully for the first time and also looked healthy. He got a lot of personal work with QB Brett Favre on the side. Looked like a tutoring session. Formerly injured players also on the field and participating: RB Brandon Jackson (concussion), S Aaron Rouse (hamstring), OG Jason Spitz (calf), OT Tony Moll (stinger), OG Tony Palmer (hamstring), and DE Kabeer Gbaja-Biamilia (knee) Fullback John Kuhn, who was claimed off waivers from the Pittsburgh Steelers, had not arrived in time to practice. DE Michael Montgomery (knee) continues to be out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 I thought James Jones had taken the #2 job away from Jennings? No. That was never announced just speculated on by reporters. All 3 will be on the field often. From Packers.com Driver's sprained foot, sustained in the third preseason game on Aug. 23, continues to improve and the Pro Bowl wide receiver appeared to run routes Sunday without difficulty. McCarthy said Driver would be limited in practice all week, and a decision on his playing status would be made at the end of the week. Driver said last week he fully expected to be able to play against Philadelphia, and McCarthy said Sunday he remains optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameltosis Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Any updates on Driver? From the sounds of it he should be good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
