What to know from Packers’ first injury report of Week 11 vs. Bears

The Green Bay Packers released the team’s first injury report of Week 11 on Wednesday. The team will release two more injury reports, including a final injury report on Friday with official playing status designations before Sunday’s showdown with the Chicago Bears.

Here’s everything to know from the Packers’ first injury report of Week 11:

Who didn’t participate?

Only defensive lineman Colby Wooden was listed as “did not participate” on Wednesday’s injury report. He has a shoulder injury. Wooden previously missed time with a knee injury. Every other player, including running back MarShawn Lloyd, participated in some capacity on Wednesday.

How is Jordan Love?

Healing. Love was listed as a full participant during Wednesday’s practice — his first full practice since injuring his groin in Week 8. The Packers are hoping more practice time will lead to a better performance on the field for the second-year starting quarterback.

Who returned to practice?

Cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee), center Josh Myers (wrist) and safety Evan Williams (hamstring) returned to practice after missing the Packers’ Week 9 loss to the Detroit Lions. All three were limited on Wednesday. Lloyd also returned — the third-round pick is designated to return from injured reserve and could be activated by Sunday. The Packers listed Lloyd as limited with ankle and hamstring injuries.

Any new injuries to know?

Running back Josh Jacobs is no longer listed with an ankle injury, but he was limited Wednesday with a quad injury. Edge rusher Kingsley Enagbare has a new elbow injury, but he was a full participant on Wednesday. Wooden’s shoulder injury is also new.

Who is no longer on the injury report?

The bye week was good to the Packers. Matt LaFleur’s team removed cornerback Corey Ballentine, offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins, defensive lineman Lukas Van Ness, linebacker Quay Walker, offensive tackle Rasheed Walker and defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt from the injury report to start Week 11. They are all healed from injuries that landed them on the Week 9 injury report. One injury didn’t heal: Kenny Clark was still limited with a toe injury. He’s been listed on the injury report for most of the season.

What’s to know from Bears injury report?

The Bears were without five players at Wednesday’s practice: offensive lineman Kiram Amegadjie (calf), safety Jaquan Brisker (concussion), offensive lineman Teven Jenkins (ankle), defensive back Tarvarius Moore (concussion) and edge rusher Montez Sweat (ankle). Matt Eberflus’ team returned three players to practice in a limited capacity: Left tackle Braxton Jones (knee), right tackle Darnell Wright (knee) and edge rusher Darrell Wright (knee).
