 Jermichael Finley - TENov. 20 - 4:58 pm et
Jermichael Finley (knee, probable) practiced in full again Friday.
Finley didn't miss one rep at Packers practice this week. He's worth stashing as a TE2, but wouldn't be a good fantasy start Sunday vs. San Francisco.

 Scott Wells - CNov. 20 - 1:15 pm et
Packers C Scott Wells (concussion) is expected to start on Sunday.
Wells missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, but returned Friday and "did well" on the field. While his presence won't hurt Ryan Grant's matchup, the 49ers' defense will. They're third against the run and allow just 3.3 YPC.

 Ahman Green - RBNov. 20 - 1:12 pm et
Ahman Green missed Packers practice Friday with a groin injury and is listed as questionable for Week 11.
Green was a late addition to the injury report. It's not surprising that he's suffering in-practice injuries at age 32. Brandon Jackson will step in as Green Bay's full-time third-down back against the 49ers if Green can't play.

 Brian Brohm - QBNov. 20 - 10:33 am et
Brian Brohm admits he struggled with his confidence after getting off to a rough start in Green Bay.
"There were some issues kind of in my head, a little confidence-wise maybe, where I got off to bad start and really never got things rolling," said Brohm. The Bills have nothing in front of him, so he may see game action in December. The 2008 second-rounder is worth a flier in deep Dynasty leagues.

 Scott Wells - CNov. 19 - 4:44 pm et
Packers C Scott Wells is in danger of missing this week's game against the 49ers with a concussion.
Wells has been slightly above average as a starting center this season. His absence would hurt against 49ers NT Aubrayo Franklin, who is playing at a Pro Bowl level. The Niners are allowing just 3.3 YPC to opposing runners, so it's a poor matchup for Ryan Grant.

 Ahman Green - RBNov. 19 - 11:39 am et
Ahman Green says he feels like he's finally back in football shape.
Since signing with the Packers on Oct. 21, Green has been active for three games and gotten 14 touches as the No. 2 back. He's not a threat to Ryan Grant's workload.

 Mike Reilly - QBNov. 19 - 11:24 am et
Packers signed QB Mike Reilly to their practice squad.
He replaces Brian Brohm, who was plucked by the Bills Wednesday. Reilly spent the summer with the Steelers as an undrafted rookie out of Central Washington. He's a prospect with upside, but the fact that he hasn't been on a practice squad all season despite a couple workouts is a bad sign.

 Brian Brohm - QBNov. 18 - 11:58 pm et
Bills signed QB Brian Brohm off the Packers' practice squad.
Brohm is unlikely to make a difference in Buffalo, but he's a worthwhile late-season pickup with the Bills going nowhere. The 2008 second-round pick lacked confidence throughout his 1 1/2-year stay in Green Bay. He has NFL-caliber tools, but probably needs a miracle-working position coach to fix his mindset. Brohm will finish out 2009 as Buffalo's No. 4 quarterback.

 Jermichael Finley - TENov. 18 - 12:59 pm et
Jermichael Finley (knee) returned to Packers practice in full Wednesday.
Beat writer Greg Bedard observed that Finley "looked good" on the practice field, and he's fully expected to return from his three-week knee injury against the 49ers. There are at least 15 better fantasy TEs in the league, however.

 James Jones - WRNov. 17 - 11:28 am et
James Jones was on the field for 57 snaps in Week 10 but caught just three balls for 17 yards on six targets.
Jones got some extra snaps as Greg Jennings was limited by a knee bruise, but wasn't able to produce. He's a boom or bust type player even though he's a regular on the field and should be left on benches for now.

 Aaron Kampman - LBNov. 16 - 2:05 pm et
Packers OLB Aaron Kampman (concussion) will return in Week 11.
Coach Mike McCarthy also confirmed that Kampman will keep his starting job, despite a strong performance by rookie Brad Jones against Dallas. For the season, Kampman has 38 tackles, 2.5 sacks, and one fumble forced.

 Greg Jennings - WRNov. 16 - 2:02 pm et
Packers coach Mike McCarthy confirmed Monday that Greg Jennings is dealing with a right knee contusion.
The bruise cost Jennings a few plays in Week 10 and may limit his practice time this week, but he doesn't appear in any danger of missing Week 11. Green Bay faces San Francisco's up-and-down pass defense next Sunday.

 John Kuhn - RBNov. 16 - 2:00 pm et
Coach Mike McCarthy revealed Monday that FB John Kuhn broke his hand in the Packers' Week 10 win.
Kuhn, who is sometimes used in short-yardage situations, has 14 touches and three all-purpose touchdowns on the season. He doesn't need surgery and will play with a splint, but is unlikely to get the ball as much going forward.

 Jermichael Finley - TENov. 16 - 1:36 pm et
The Packers expect Jermichael Finley (knee) to resume practicing this week.
Finley wound up missing three games with a knee sprain. His return will give a boost to Aaron Rodgers, but Finley is only a TE2 going forward. While he's a big-play threat, Finley will be inconsistent as a situational player.
Source: Greg Bedard on Twitter
 Greg Jennings - WRNov. 16 - 11:05 am et
Greg Jennings appeared to miss some plays with a right leg injury during Sunday's win over the Cowboys.
Coach Mike McCarthy didn't mention anything about Jennings after the game, so it's unclear exactly what happened. It doesn't sound like anything serious at all, but check the practice reports this week.

 Donald Lee - TENov. 15 - 8:09 pm et
Donald Lee caught just two passes for 21 yards in Week 10.
Lee continues to spend most of his time blocking, even with Jermichael Finley not in the lineup. Avoid all Packers tight ends until Finley returns.
 James Jones - WRNov. 15 - 8:08 pm et
James Jones caught three balls for 17 yards in Week 10.
It was an inefficient day for Jones, who saw six targets. He's now losing some snaps and looks to Jordy Nelson, who caught all four of the balls thrown his way for 32 yards. Avoid this situation in fantasy going forward.

 Greg Jennings - WRNov. 15 - 8:05 pm et
Greg Jennings caught four balls for 45 yards in Week 10.
Jennings' seven targets ranked second to Donald Driver on the Packers. Green Bay didn't try to test the Cowboys down the field, which killed Jennings' chances of making a big play. Keep him going against the 49ers in Week 11.
 Ryan Grant - RBNov. 15 - 8:04 pm et
Ryan Grant ran 19 times for 79 yards and caught two balls for eight yards in the Packers' Week 10 win.
Grant was Green Bay's most effective skill player early, getting 50 yards on his first 10 carries. The Packers ultimately resorted to the pass, however, and finally began scoring points using the approach in the second half. Grant has a more difficult matchup against San Francisco in Week 11.
 Donald Driver - WRNov. 15 - 7:58 pm et
Donald Driver caught four balls for 50 yards in Week 10.
Driver led Green Bay with eight targets and nearly caught a third-quarter touchdown pass, but a Dallas defensive back made a big play to bat it down. Driver still has at least 50 yards in every game since the season opener. He has a fairly favorable matchup against San Francisco in Week 11.
