This could actually help him make the team for another year, then come back next year with many more repetitions (albeit in practice) under his belt.

He probably wasn't going to contribute much as a WR anyway so the question becomes how does this impact our special teams. Could be the death knell for him as it will give someone else a chance to become the STs ace making Janis expendable. If we end up IRing him he'll likely stick around because of the cheap potential but if he goes into next year with another guy taking over his STs role it will mean he will have even more pressure to produce as a WR.

How long is he supposed to be out? A broken finger or bone in the hand usually takes about 2 months to heal no? So maybe he's a PUP candidate and they bring him back during the season?

Edit: I see it was posted in another thread that he can't be placed on the PUP, is it because he's been active in practice? Sucks because this seems like the ideal injury to put someone on the PUP, a couple month rather low risk injury before pre-season has really started shouldn't be enough to end someone's year.

But given Janis's bubble status and the depth at WR I imagine that's what they'll do (IR).

I think he's one of the best gunners in the NFL... and with the Packers lack of depth at CB (which normally play the gunner role) the Packers could use Janis at gunner to keep Randall/Rollins off of gunner duties. Heck with Janis injured and Goodson suspended, Randall and Rollins might be forced into gunner duties the first couple of weeks anyways... unless one of the UDFA can step up and do it well.
