Packers Injury Report: Jayden Reed goes on injured reserve

Beyond the Reed news, four players in practice on Wednesday were non-participants: left guard Aaron Banks (knee/toe), right guard Jacob Monk (quadricep), defensive lineman Karl Brooks (illness) and defensive lineman Anthony Campbell (ankle). Banks and Campbell did not play last week, so those are not surprises. Monk dropped out of action late against the Atlanta Falcons , but he was never given a status by the team — clearly, he's banged up as we're nearly a week removed from game action. Brooks' illness was not reported on before practice.

Limited participants for the Packers today were defensive lineman Warren Brinson (calf/groin), linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (shoulder/concussion) and edge defender Lukas Van Ness (shoulder). This was Brinson's first practice since he was injured in pre-game warmups leading up to Week 2 of the preseason, but reporters on the scene for individual drills and warmups today (the portions of practice open to the media) stated that Brinson "appeared to go down and was receiving medical attention." Worth noting: Brinson has never had a groin status on his injury report before today, so it's possible that he could have suffered a second injury on Wednesday.

The good news is that Cooper, who dropped out against the Falcons, is already a limited participant in practice. Generally, a player who suffers a concussion on a Thursday Night Football game is cleared for the next Sunday's action, but concussions can be tricky. If Cooper can't go, it will be Isaiah McDuffie — both the backup Mike linebacker (behind Zaire Franklin ) and backup Will linebacker (behind Cooper) — who starts in his place.
