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.

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.

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

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

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
