Here's the latest injury update from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:

http://blogs.jsonline.com/packers/archive/2008/08/24/sitton-jones-have-sprained-knees.aspx

Sounds like Jones' injury is a little more serious than expected, as he is week-to-week. Sitton is also week-to-week, but his knee is a little worse off than Jones' knee. Nothing else too bad. The Journal-Sentinel also mentions in another blog entry that Ryan Grant was taking handoffs on the practice field today.

Yup Bozz......in the NFL, any knee injury is bad.
Hopefully there isn't structual damage.

Bad news for the both of them. James Jones because his presense makes the other wide outs better out there. And Sitton because that line is messed up enough already with the injury to Wells. Hopefully they will both benefit from another preseason game..Take it off..and then be ready to go for week one!!

Josh Sitton is our starting G? I didn't know that.

I hope both injuries are not too serious.

Wow, I'm a bit concerned for James Jones. Hopefully it will be temporary and good to go. This is a good opportunity for Jordy to prove his worth, and I'm sure he will.

Sitton had the inside track on the starting RG spot. That's why he started in Denver even though he struggled (along with the other interior linemen) in San Francisco. And that's why Jason Spitz was moved to LG. But the injuries to Wells, and now Sitton, have forced the coaches to do some shuffling. It does look like there is a good chance that Wells, anyway, will be ready for the first regular season game.

Thanks Greg.

Wells, Cliffy, and Tauscher are the only offensive linemen I'm high on right now. I'm really hoping Wells is ready to play against MN.

This article sheds more light on the James Jones injury. Hope this doesn't keep him off the field too long.

Mucky Tundra (31-May) : @ByRyanWood Without Elgton Jenkins and Zach Tom, #Packers starting OL: Rasheed Walker, Jordan Morgan, Josh Myers, Sean Rhyan, Andre Dillard.

Martha Careful (31-May) : I have never seen an OTA, but who is lining up at LT and RG with starters? or is it all individual drills?

Zero2Cool (30-May) : Bears are the first team to be selected for Hard Knocks

dfosterf (29-May) : Andy Herman and his Pack a day podcast put up GB strengths yesterday. This morning he did weaknesses. They are both very good.

Zero2Cool (22-May) : Savage played last half of season with tear in rotator cuff

Zero2Cool (22-May) : SISSIES!!!!

Mucky Tundra (22-May) : Sounds like both Kraft and Tom were injuried before OTAs began

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Not serious but waiting for strength and conditioning coach referwnces.

buckeyepackfan (22-May) : Tom and Kraft both injured(pectoral muscle),

Zero2Cool (20-May) : I feel similar about person and product/service.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : I really don't know lol. I don't see him getting blown up.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
