Packers Open Jayden Reed’s Return Window, Rule WR Out for Week 12

The designation starts a 21-day clock to activate the receiver, offering a potential lift for a passing game thinned by injuries.

Overview

  • Reed practiced Friday for the first time since Week 2 after surgeries to repair a broken clavicle and a Jones fracture in his foot.
  • He was a limited participant and is listed out against the Vikings, and he is ineligible to play until added to the 53-man roster.
  • Beat reporting points to Week 14 vs. Chicago as the likeliest target over Week 12 or the short-week Thanksgiving game, contingent on his progress.
  • Reed said post-practice that scans cleared him to resume football work and that he hopes to return soon.
  • Under NFL rules the team has 21 days to activate him or keep him on injured reserve for the season, and his return is viewed as a boost after Tucker Kraft’s ACL tear.
