Jennings is slated to visit the Vikings on Thursday, ESPN.com reports.

Analysis: After trading Percy Harvin, the Vikings are eager to upgrade at wideout and Jennings is the top name available at the position in free agency. A return to Green Bay is not out of the question, but if Minnesota (or another yet to be identified team) is willing to make him a strong contract offer though, Jennings could quickly move out of the Packers' price range.

Greg Jennings: No Franchise Tag from Packers

The Packers elected not to franchise Jennings, according to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein.

Analysis: Jennings is now on target to hit free agency, which opens March 12. It's still quite conceivable that the Packers will be able to retain him, but that's no lock, with teams (like Miami) out there with both money to spend and a need at wideout.

Greg Jennings: Packers May Use Franchise Tag

According to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport, the Packers are still thought to be considering franchising Jennings.

Analysis: Of course, since doing so would cost the Packers about $10.4 million, that's probably speculative, but the notion that Jennings' departure from Green Bay is imminent may be flawed, given that GM Ted Thompson has expressed an interest in retaining the wideout.

Jennings has made it known that he wouldn't mind playing for Joe Philbin and the Miami Dolphins, according to the Palm Beach Post.

Analysis: Jennings will more than likely move on from the Packers in free agency and landing in Miami with his former offensive coordinator would seem to make sense. Miami needs a top notch WR, the only question may be whether or not the teams wants to spend big money on a 30-year-old wideout.

Greg Jennings: Puts WI Home Up For Sale

Jennings has placed his home in De Pere, Wisconsin on the market, FOXSportsWisconsin.com reports.

Analysis: It looks like Jennings has begun the process of relocating, as his home, which is 10 minutes from Lambeau Field, is now up for sale. A groin injury forced the 29-year-old to miss nine games last season, his seventh in Green Bay. The Packers don't seem interested in giving Jennings a long-term contract, so it's looking more and more likely that he'll move on to another team.

Jennings may have played his last game with the Packers following Saturday's divisional round loss at San Francisco, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. When asked if it would be difficult to leave Green Bay, he said, "I don't know if there's a difficult part. Like I said, I'm excited for the future. Football is going to be football. I'm excited for that."

Analysis: Jennings recorded six receptions (on eight targets) for 54 yards and a garbage-time touchdown against the 49ers. Meanwhile, this follows a season in which he missed eight games due to an abdominal tear that required surgery, as he posted the worst output of his seven-year career with 36 catches for 366 yards and four touchdowns. Since the passing game led by Aaron Rodgers still clicked in his absence, he is expected to take his talents elsewhere for the 2013 campaign.

Jennings led Green Bay with 61 yards receiving on four catches Saturday during a wild-card win against Minnesota. He was targeted six times on the evening.

Analysis: Jennings tied for the team lead in targets with DuJuan Harris and Jordy Nelson. Meanwhile, quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed passes to 10 players Saturday, which limited the value of nearly every Packers receiver. In fact, fullback John Kuhn caught the sole passing touchdown, so Jennings was not much of a fantasy consideration in the first round of the playoffs. Still, Jennings has averaged 7.7 targets in six games since a return from an abdominal tear making him a decent bet to bounce back, even against San Francisco's tough defense in the divisional round.

The Dolphins will be very interested in Jennings should he become available in free agency, according to the Miami Herald's Armando Salguero.

Analysis: No shock here. The Dolphins are well under the salary cap, can afford a big time receiver, certainly have the need, and Jennings' and head coach Joe Philbin is very familiar with Jennings. They could be the odd on favorite to land his services if Jennings goal is to go to the highest bidder.

Jennings caught eight passes for 120 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Vikings, all season-highs.

Analysis: Jennings saved the best game of his injury-plagued 2012 season for last, assuming the role of Aaron Rodgers' top target with Randall Cobb out with an ankle injury. Cobb would seem to have a decent chance to return for next weekend's playoff game against the Vikings, in which case Jennings' targets could fall back into the single digits.

Cobb looking unlikely to play

Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press Gazette tweeted that Cobb did not practice Thursday because of the ankle injury he suffered in a Week 16 torching of the Tennessee Titans. Coach Mike McCarthy was initially optimistic about Cobb's injury, but the second-year wideout has yet to participate in workouts. The Packers hoped to have Cobb work on a limited basis Thursday before undergoing testing Friday. FULL REPORT

Analysis: If Cobb is forced to miss time along with Jordy Nelson, Greg Jennings should see an increased role along with James Jones. Though Jennings has been a disappointment, this might be your best chance to get production out of the veteran.

Packers WRs thrive

James Jones led all Packers wideouts with seven catches for 100 yards and a score versus the Titans on Sunday. Randall Cobb added 62 yards and a score, pairing up with Greg Jennings, who also found the end zone behind a 45 yard receiving effort. WATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Analysis: With Aaron Rodgers facing little resistance, everyone was able to get in on the action. For owners playing the championship game next week, the success should continue against the Vikings 23rd ranked passing defense.

Jennings had seven catches on nine targets for 45 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Titans.

Analysis: Jennings' touchdown was his first since Week 4 and only his second of his injury-plagued season. James Jones and Randall Cobb seem to have passed Jennings in the eyes of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, although he still remains a solid fantasy piece, given the Packers' reliance on the passing game. Up next is a Vikings' defense that shut down the Texans' passing game Sunday.

Jennings could leave Packers

Jennings was asked if he believed he'd be back in Green Bay during a Tuesday appearance on the "Double Coverage" podcast with Steve Wyche and Mark Kriegel. "An educated guess? ... I'm gonna lean to the 'no' side of it," Jennings said. "That's my educated guess, my personal educated guess." FULL STORY

Analysis: The veteran has been far from reliable, scoring no more than five fantasy points in a game since returning from injury. If you're in the title game, it might be wise to look for other options despite a good matchup against the Titans.

Jennings, who will be a free agent this offseason, said he does not think he will be back with the Packers next season, NFL.com reports.

Analysis: When asked if he'd be back in Green Bay in an interview with Steve Wyche and Mark Kriegel on the "Double Coverage" podcast, Jennings said, "An educated guess?...I'm gonna lean to the 'no' side of it. That's my educated guess, my personal educated guess." However, Jennings said he'd love to stay with the Packers if given the opportunity. "Absolutely. I definitely, if I had a choice, me, if it was just my decision, my decision only, absolutely I would be here in a heartbeat," Jennings said. This is sure to be a hot topic this offseason.

Jennings caught one ball for 27 yards Sunday against the Lions.

Analysis: Jennings was targeted four times and could have had a touchdown if it wasn't for an errant throw from Aaron Rodgers. The weather limited the Packers to 24 pass attempts, and they may face a similar situation Week 15 against the Bears.

Nelson, Starks ruled out

Jordy Nelson (hamstring) and running back James Starks (knee) have been ruled out for the Packers matchup against the Lions on Sunday night. FULL INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: Greg Jennings should make more of an impact now that he is another week healthier and will see more time with Nelson sidelined. The Lions defense has allowed 21 passing scores compared to just 10 interceptions. Alex Green will finally get one more chance to secure a lead role by carrying a full workload. Consider the back best used as a flex option given his previous lack of production serving as the lone running back.

Cobb leads Packers WR corps

Randall Cobb led all Packers receivers with six catches for 62 yards. Greg Jennings added four catches for 46 yards in his first action since Week 4, but the lone touchdown reception belonged to James Jones, who totaled just 40 yards for the day. WATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Analysis: Teammate Jordy Nelson exited the game early with a hamstring injury after posting just one catch for ten yards.

Jennings (groin) had four catches for 46 yards in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

Analysis: In his return from an eight-game absence, Jennings was targeted a team-high eight times. Those targets didn't translate into much fantasy success, but his involvement is a good sign for fantasy owners. Jordy Nelson (hamstring) left Sunday's game early, and if he's forced to miss time, Jennings and Randall Cobb will likely be the primary focuses in the Packers' passing game.

Jennings ACTIVE

Greg Jennings (abdomen) will play for the Green Bay Packers against the Minnesota Vikings, according to NFL.com's Albert Breer. He's officially active for the game. Wide receiver Donald Driver (thumb) is inactive. FULL SUNDAY INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: How many snaps he plays is the big question for fantasy owners today. Depending on your other options, he might be worth the risk given his positive history against the Vikings.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Active

Jennings (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Jennings will take the field this week for the first time since Week 4. He may be a bit limited having not practiced fully until this week, but he's the Packers' top receiver when healthy. Starting Jennings this week won't come without risk, but it's also a gamble that could pay off thanks to the Packers' high-powered passing attack.

Jennings to return in Week 13

Greg Jennings (abdomen) is probable to play against the Vikings. FULL INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: Jennings is hoping to be "let loose" against the Vikings, but the emergence of Randall Cobb and James Jones could allow the Packers to limit his workload. The Vikings have allowed 18 passing scores compared to just six interceptions this season, so Jennings could be worth the risk depending on your other options.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Ready to Return

Jennings (groin) is probable for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tyler Dunne reports.

Analysis: Jennings could see his snaps limited to some extent, so he's far from a must-start in his first game back from a seven-game absence. The good news for his value is that the Packers can't afford to let off the gas with a 7-4 record, so Jennings should get all the work his health will allow him. Still, with physical limitation still a possibility, Jennings is probably in no better than WR3 territory in most leagues for now.

Packers WR corps back to health

In his "Week 13 Predictions" analysis, Elliot Harrison notes, "the Green Bay Packers finally have Greg Jennings back in the fold, further strengthening an already scary receiving corps of Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and James Jones. Green Bay has been firing on half cylinders due to injury. Nonetheless, the wideout group is ready to go and facing a Vikings secondary that's allowed opposing quarterbacks a 92.6 passer rating (24th in the NFL)." FULL WEEK 13 PREDICTIONS

Analysis: Just how much Jennings plays is still up for debate given the performances of Cobb and Jones. Temper expectations for the wideout, but he does have a history of success against the Vikings.

Jennings (groin) participated in practice fully Thursday, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Jennings reportedly looked good during the portion of practice open to the media, as he looked to be fine running in and out of cuts during his routes. However, looking good in practice is different than being back to game speed. Jennings admitted Wednesday that he may be a bit limited during Sunday's game against the Vikings. "I don't know," Jennings said. "We'll see. Obviously they're probably going to err on the side of gradually implementing me in there." After missing the past seven weeks with a groin injury, it's likely that he will be in some sort of rotation in his first game back.

Jennings back at practice

Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings practiced fully, as expected. He'll play this week. FULL INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: With Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson thriving, the Packers could ease Jennings back into action or let him loose. Fantasy owners will have gauge the risk in starting him depending on your other options.

Jennings (groin) practiced fully Wednesday, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: After missing the past seven games due to his abdominal injury, Jennings himself is set to take on a full load Sunday against Minnesota. "If I had a say, I would just say just let me go," he said when asked about being restricted in his return. "I'm good. There's no need for that. But I can't control that part of it. When my number gets called, I'm going to be ready to go." The Packers' star wideout should be available in Week 13, but be sure to watch his status as the week rolls along.

Greg Jennings: Week 13 Return on Tap

Coach Mike McCarthy indicated that Jennings (groin) will practice fully all week and return to the Packers' lineup against the Vikings on Sunday, NFL.com reports.

Analysis: Jennings was evidently close to playing Sunday night against the Giants, but the Packers played it safe with the wideout. Assuming no setbacks, he'll be out there this coming Sunday, but we'll track his practice progress/participation closely in the coming days nonetheless.

Greg Jennings: Inactive Sunday

Jennings (groin) is inactive Sunday night against the Giants, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: We'll revisit Jennings' status as the Packers' Week 13 contest against the Vikings approaches, but given that he was perceived to have a shot to play Sunday night, a return next weekend seems plausible for him.

Jennings ruled out

Greg Jennings will not play Sunday night against the New York Giants, Fox Sports insider and NFL Network contributor Jay Glazer reported. FULL REPORT

Analysis: With Randall Cobb having success in Jennings' absence, the team is able to take a cautious approach. Still, it bodes well for Jennings' availability during the fantasy playoffs.

Jennings (groin) is unlikely to play Sunday night against the Giants, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Analysis: We'll confirm this report as Sunday's 8:20 ET kickoff approaches, but Schefter is generally an accurate source, so it looks like Jennings' owners will need to wait another week for him to return to action, with the late kickoff obviously problematic for anyone still inclined to wait things out.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Questionable Against NYG

Jennings (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tyler Dunne reports.

Analysis: Jennings has been making limited practice appearances this week, so a return seems very near. Even if Sunday turns out to be the day, however, Jennings will be a big fantasy risk. The Packers have a lot of depth at receiver, and it wouldn't surprise if they limit his snaps in his first game or two back.

Greg Jennings: Making Progress

Coach Mike McCarthy noted after practice that Jennings (groin) took a calculated amount of reps Thursday, according to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein.

Analysis: Moreover, the team wants to see how Jennings feels Friday, with McCarthy adding that he can't say whether or not the wideout will play this week. For now, we'll estimate Jennings' chances of suiting up Sunday night against the Giants as doubtful, though that designation figures to officially tip one way or the other following Friday's practice.

Jennings (groin) was in pads and "practicing in all drills" Thursday, according to Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein.

Analysis: The report added that it looked like Jennings was moving well, but at this stage, while he says he is pain-free, Jennings noted Wednesday that his conditioning is a bit of an issue. Coach Mike McCarthy has said that it would be "a stretch" for Jennings to play Sunday night against the Giants, but if things continue to progress without any setbacks for the wideout, a Week 13 return seems plausible.

Jennings (groin) caught some passes in Wednesday's practice before heading indoors for some rehabilitation, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: The development marks the first positive sign in Jennings' recovery from abdominal surgery on November 1. At that time, it was believed that he would need at least a few weeks before he could return to practice, so he's following that logic to a T. While it's unlikely that he suits up Sunday night against the Giants, he appears to be progressing in his recovery.

Jennings (groin), who will not play Sunday at Detroit, may not return to practice next week, the Milwaukee Jounral Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy is unsure if Jennings will be able to participate in drills after Week 11, which will mark his third week since abdominal surgery. Since he was expected to be sidelined for a couple of weeks, there is a small possibility that Jennings can practice in some capacity, but he seems to be far away from suiting up at this time.

Greg Jennings itching to return to field for Packers

Jennings told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel he feels ready to go after surgery this month to repair an abdominal tear. He is eyeing the New York Giants on Nov. 25 or the Minnesota Vikings on Dec. 2 as possible return dates. William Meyers, his physician, isn't willing to rush the process.

Analysis: With Jennings out, Jordy Nelson, James Jones and Randall Cobb have been just fine for Green Bay (and fantasy owners). If you've stashed Greg Jennings in anticipation of his return, you could be rewarded just in time for the fantasy playoffs. If he's available, pick him up ASAP.

Jennings (abdomen/groin) did not practice Monday, Packers.com reports.

Analysis: This doesn't come as a surprise to the Packers, who are still targeting the end of November as Jennings likely return date.

Jennings has successful surgery

Green Bay Packers receiver Greg Jennings had surgery for his rectus abdominal tear Thursday, Tweeting the procedure went well. FULL STORY

Analysis: Though there is a chance Jennings could return to help fantasy owners who make the playoffs, don't expect him to be a viable option upon his return. With Randall Cobb and James Jones proving serviceable, the team could opt to take it slow in his recovery.

According to coach Mike McCarthy, Jennings -- whose surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle went well -- will need a couple of weeks at a minimum before he comes back, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein reports.

Analysis: While that's not as specific a timetable as we'd like, it is an encouraging one that suggests that it's at least possible that Jennings could be back in uniform before the end of the month.

Jennings tweeted Thursday that his surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle went well.

Analysis: While no specific timetable for his return has been outlined, now that the procedure is complete and apparently went well, Jennings can now get going on his rehab. Initial estimates are that he'll need at least three weeks to recover.

Jennings will have surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle in Philadelphia sometime this week, the Packers' official site reports. Jennings had been scheduled to undergo the procedure on Tuesday, but it was postponed due to Superstorm Sandy.

Analysis: Jennings has indicated that he will be able to start his rehab as soon as the procedure is completed, but a precise timetable for his return has yet to be established, though it has been suggested that he will miss at least three weeks once the surgery has taken place.

Jennings' surgery pushed back

Jennings was scheduled to undergo sports hernia surgery Tuesday in Philadelphia, but the procedure was postponed by the unprecedented storm that has brought the Atlantic Coast to a standstill. FULL STORY

Analysis: The delay obviously pushes his return time back another week, so if you have room to stash him in case he is able to return for the fantasy playoffs, do so. If not, look for options which will actually give you some points.

Greg Jennings: (Abdomen) Surgery Postponed

Jennings' (abdomen) surgery, which was scheduled for Tuesday, has been postponed due to inclement weather conditions brought on by Hurricane Sandy, NFL.com reports.

Analysis: The procedure was set for Tuesday in Philadelphia, but Jennings is still in Green Bay because of the unprecedented weather conditions ravaging the east coast. He will now have to schedule a new date for surgery. Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that it has not been determined when exactly Jennings will travel to Philadelphia, but it's unlikely this delay will push back his estimated three week timetable too much.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Out Three Weeks?

Jennings (groin) is expected to be out about three weeks after undergoing abdominal surgery Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Analysis: This seems a bit of an overly optimistic timetable, as Jennings has been hampered by this groin injury all season and now is going under the knife. Even if he is able to return after three weeks, he will likely need at least a week or two to get back into game shape. It's still a possibility that Jennings is shut down for the rest of the season if he continues to suffer setbacks to his groin after the surgery. Ultimately, the Packers really have no reason to rush Jennings back, as James Jones and Randall Cobb have stepped up admirably in his place.

Jennings will have surgery

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings said Thursday that he will opt for surgery on his injured groin. He told reporters that he won't be out for the year, but there is no timetable for his return. FOLLOW BREAKING NEWS

Analysis: With the emergence of Randall Cobb and James Jones, don't expect the team to rush him back to action. If you haven't already found other options, now is the time to do so.

The surgery that Jennings is slated to undergo Tuesday to repair an abdominal tear is a 20-25 minute procedure, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein reports. Jennings added that he will be able to walk out of the doctor's office following the procedure.

Analysis: As for a potential timetable for his return, Jennings added, "they give you certain time frames, one week, two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, whatever the case may be. But at the end of the day, it's going to be determined (by) whether I feel good or not..." In other words, he's out indefinitely, but the stated belief is that Jennings will be back at some point this season.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) To Undergo Surgery

Jennings will have surgery to repair his injured groin, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Jennings indicated that he will return at some point this season, but there is no timetable for that, so whether he could potentially be available for the fantasy stretch run remains cloudy. Jennings' indefinite absence provides a boost to the value of James Jones and Randall Cobb, and with Jordy Nelson also currently hurting, the Packers may also dust off Donald Driver.

Coach Mike McCarthy acknowledged Thursday that Jennings is considering surgery on his groin after seeing a specialist, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein reports.

Analysis: While no decision has been made on this front yet, this is not what Jennings' owners want to hear and at the very least it seems safe to assume that we won't see the wideout Sunday against the Jaguars.

Coach Mike McCarthy remains non-committal about when Jennings (groin), who didn't practice Wednesday, might return to action, the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports. "We're still gathering information on Greg's injury," McCarthy said after Wednesday's practice. "That's where we stand today."

Analysis: The report hints that Jennings may be dealing with a sports hernia, but either way it doesn't seem likely at this point that the Packers will rush him back for Sunday's contest against the 1-5 Jaguars.

Packers' Greg Jennings reportedly saw groin specialist

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings saw a specialist Tuesday for his lingering groin injury, a source told ESPN Wisconsin's Jason Wilde.

Analysis: Jennings has been slow to heal, which is a mounting headache for both the Packers and fantasy owners. We don't recommend dropping him at the moment, but if this continues, that course of action might become unavoidable.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Sees Groin Specialist

Jennings saw a groin specialist Tuesday, and his availability for Sunday's game against the Jaguars is in question, NFL.com reports.

Analysis: The plan is still for Jennings to test the groin during practice Thursday and Friday. "The plan with Greg just from Day 1 was to try to get as far into the week because with his type of injury, the fatigue, going through the testing and him maxing it out," coach Mike McCarthy said Monday. "The fatigue part of it we felt sending him out for a bunch of practice was probably not in his best interest for the week he comes back." If Jennings sits again Sunday, expect James Jones and Randall Cobb to continue to see more looks in his place.

Jennings (groin) will go through a "run test" Thursday to determine if he can practice Friday, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Analysis: If Jennings passes the run test, he'll likely go through a portion of Friday's practice. Head coach Mike McCarthy said the team may consider resting Jennings in Week 8 even if he is able to practice Friday. The Packers have scored nine touchdowns through the air in the past two games, and it doesn't look like they need to rush him back. Obviously they'd enjoy having their Pro Bowl receiver available, but the potent offense shouldn't have much trouble against a banged up Jaguars team. We'll know more Thursday, but consider him questionable for the time being.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Iffy For Sunday's Game Against Jags

Jennings (groin) remains iffy for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: If it is determined as the week progresses that Jennings has a shot to return for Week 8, which is no lock, he'll test out his groin injury Thursday and practice on Friday.

Packers bitten by injury bug

The Green Bay Packers will be without nose tackle B.J. Raji for the second consecutive game. Coach Mike McCarthydeclared Raji out during his press conference Friday, ESPN Wisconsin's Jason Wilde reported. Wide receiver Greg Jennings, linebacker Nick Perry (knee) and cornerback Sam Shields (shin) are all out, also. That's one offensive starter and three defensive starters - one on each level. FULL REPORT

Analysis: The good news for owners forced to start the Packers' defense is the Rams are 26th in scoring, averaging just 18.30 points per game.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Ruled Out For Sunday

Jennings (groin) is out for Sunday's game against St. Louis, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tyler Dunne reports.

Analysis: Green Bay's excellent wideout depth means that Jennings might sit until he's at or close to 100 percent. It's anyone's guess how close to that mark he might be, so consider him questionable for Week 8.

Jennings (groin) did not practice Thursday, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel writer Tom Silverstein reports.

Analysis: We'll see how the Packers list Jennings on their official injury report Friday, but at this stage he looks like a long-shot to play Sunday against the Rams. Jordy Nelson, James Jones and Randall Cobb handled the team's wideout duties more than capably in Week 6 against the Texans, which makes it a whole lot easier for the Packers to refrain from rushing Jennings back.

Packers' WRs face top secondary

In his "Rap Sheet Rankings," NFL.com's Ian Rapoport states that if the "Packers are without Greg Jennings again, will Jordy Nelson and James Jones be able to torch Rams cornerbacks Cortland Finnegan and Janoris Jenkins? Seems doubtful." FULL RAP SHEET RANKINGS

Analysis: After Neslon's monster performance, fantasy owners will be hard pressed to bench him, but the Rams are among only three teams which have allowed 4 passing TDs this season.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Sits Out Wednesday

Jennings (groin) is not practicing Wednesday, the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Analysis: Jennings did not practice at all last week as well, so he's looking especially iffy to suit up this coming Sunday at St. Louis. We'll be more aware of his situation when the Packers release their official injury report Friday.

Packers have injury issues

The Green Bay Packers' offense will continue to play short-handed. Wide receiver Greg Jennings (groin) is out again. Tight ends Jermichael Finley (shoulder) and D.J. Williams (hamstring) are both questionable. In short: It's going to be a Randall Cobb type of game Sunday night against the Houston Texans. FULL INJURY ROUNDUP

Analysis: James Jones has been the player you want in Jennings' absence, totaling no less than 16.60 points each of his last two games. However, his production could be limited this week against a Texans' defense which ranks third against the pass.

Jennings out, Finley questionable

Coach Mike McCarthy said at Friday's press conference that Greg Jennings was six days away from even trying out his injury again. The Packers also listed tight ends Jermichael Finley (shoulder) as questionable.

Analysis: The news on Jennings is no surprise. It just means more targets for James Jones. As for Finley ... fantasy owners' patience with him was already growing thin. This wasn't a good matchup for him anyway, here's your reason to bench him.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Out Sunday

Jennings (groin) is out for Sunday's game against Houston, Packers.com reports.

Analysis: Jennings' absence means another week of elevated value for James Jones, who could see coverage from the lesser Houston corners while Johnathan Joseph perhaps shadows the superior Jordy Nelson.

Jennings (groin) was absent from the media access portion Friday's practice, the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Analysis: We'll have to see how the Packers officially list Jennings on Friday, but at this point it doesn't seem likely that we'll see Jennings on the field Sunday night against the Texans.

As Sunday night's game against the Texans approaches, Jennings (groin) has yet to give running at full speed a go, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: At this point, it looks like Jennings will probably remain sidelined this week, but we suppose that pessimistic assessment could change if he gets some good work in Friday. Don't count on it though, as Jennings has indicated that he doesn't plan to return to action until he is able to fully open up in his stride in order to gain separation when he runs.

Jennings (groin) won't practice until at least Friday, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Analysis: We'll have to see what Jennings gets up to on Friday, but the report suggests that this could evolve into a game-time decision, which would be tricky for the wideout's owners, given that Packers kick off at 8:20 ET on Sunday.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Remains Out Wednesday

Jennings (groin) did not practice Wednesday, the Green Bay Press Gazette reports.

Analysis: Jennings remains on the sidelines due to his nagging groin injury, while no timetable has been released for his return to the field. We'll be sure to relay any progress that he makes during the week, but it's looking iffy that he'll suit up in Houston this Sunday.

Jennings' "out" status opens doors

A groin injury has nagged since Week 1 and will sideline Jennings against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported the Packers will be cautious with the two-time Pro Bowl receiver. They want him 100 percent when he returns, so he could be out several weeks. FULL "LIFE WITHOUT JENNINGS" STORY

Analysis: James Jones and Randall Cobb will be the ones to benefit most in Jennings' absence. Though Cobb finished with two more catches in Week 4, Jones racked up two scores. The Colts defense ranks 16th against the pass, but they have yet to see as potent an offense as Green Bay's. Start either Cobb or Jones as your No. 3 WR if needed.

Jennings ruled out

There will be no uncertainty about Greg Jennings' status this week. The Green Bay Packers already have ruled out the wide receiver for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts.

Analysis: This isn't a surprise, considering the news surrounding Jennings' nagging groin injury. The only question is how long he'll be out of action. As long as Jennings is off the field, it creates opportunities for James Jones to step in and produce.

Jennings ruled out

Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings has been ruled out for his Week 5 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. FULL STORY

Analysis: James Jones should be the one to benefit in Jennings' absence after scoring 17.60 points in Week 4.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Ruled Out for Sunday's Game

Jennings (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Colts, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy noted that he had a conversation with Jennings on Thursday morning, with the decision being made to shut the wideout down for the week so that he can focus on his rehab. With Jennings out Sunday, James Jones is once again in line to see added looks in the Packers' offense.

Jennings (groin) is considered unlikely to play Sunday against the Colts, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Analysis: The report adds that Jennings doesn't plan to return to action until he is 100 percent, which supports the notion that he'll be out this week, barring some dramatic progress in the next couple of days. "However long it takes, so I won't have to sit and answer these same questions again," Jennings said of how long he might be sidelined. "We don't know what the timetable is. All I know is we're going to take it one day at a time and hopefully it gets better before Sunday, but odds of that happening, they're odd."

Jennings frustrated

Packers WR Greg Jennings admitted his groin injury has him "extremely frustrated," adding that he is "trying not to let it completely overtake me, and let it become overwhelming...I've never experienced what I've experienced this year. FULL STORY

Analysis: Jennings has failed to score more than 6.90 fantasy points in a game thus far and his Week 5 status is still not looking good. James Jones is worth picking up off the waiver wire in Jennings' absence after scoring 17.60 points last week.

Jennings was held out of practice Wednesday for testing on his ailing groin, the Packers' official Twitter page reports.

Analysis: While it was reported earlier Wednesday that Jennings is "unlikely" to play this Sunday after aggravating the injury in Week 4, it appears as if his status will be murky throughout the week. Be sure to keep an eye him as he could be a game-time decision in Week 5.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Appears Unlikely To Play Sunday

Jennings (groin) may not be able to suit up for Sunday's game at Indianapolis, the Rob Demovsky of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Analysis: According to Demovsky, it appears "unlikely" that Jennings will play in Week 5. We'll continue to watch his status as the week carries on, but if he's unable to go, James Jones, who grabbed two touchdowns after Jennings left this past Sunday's game, should once again experience more targets opposite Jordy Nelson in the starting lineup.

Jennings (groin) did not practice Wednesday, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Considering coach Mike McCarthy reported that the wideout is where he was a few weeks ago after his groin injury flared up during Week 4's contest with New Orleans, Jennings' status provides little confidence that he'll be able to suit up Sunday at Indianapolis. We should know more as Friday approaches, but consider him questionable in the meantime.

With regards to Jennings' groin injury, coach Mike McCarthy noted Monday that the receiver is back to where he was a couple of weeks ago after his injury flared up again Sunday, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Since Jennings sat out Week 2's contest against the Bears, that's not an especially promising nugget with regards to Jennings' potential availability for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Analysis: He is quickly becoming an unreliable fantasy play for owners, failing to score more than 3.50 points in a game this season.

Greg Jennings: Groin Injury

Jennings has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Saints with a groin injury.

Analysis: Jennings caught just one pass prior to his exit from Sunday's game, but fortunately for fantasy owners it was a nine-yard TD reception.

Jennings (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Analysis: Jennings played in Monday's game against the Seahawks, so it's hardly surprising that he will play Sunday, despite being limited at practice all week. Jennings may not be 100 percent just yet, but he could have a chance to make some plays against a Saints defense that has been vulnerable against the pass early this season.

Jennings (groin) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Bill Huber of Scout.com reports.

Analysis: It sounds like Jennings will be fine to play Sunday despite being limited in practice all week with the groin injury. His six catches against the Seahawks went for just 35 yards, but Jennings should continue to see the ball thrown his way often at home against New Orleans.

Jennings (groin) was limited at practice Thursday, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Jennings seems to be in no danger of missing Sunday's game against the Saints, but we will revisit his status Friday to see how much he practices and how the Packers officially list him, nonetheless.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Limited Wednesday

Jennings (groin) was limited in practice Wednesday, the Packers' official Twitter page reports.

Analysis: Jennings was likely held out in order to keep him as fresh as possible for Green Bay's showdown with New Orleans on Sunday. Be sure to check back on his status, but there's no indication the injury will keep him sidelined in Week 4.

Jennings (groin) caught six passes for 35 yards Monday against the Seahawks.

Analysis: Any fears of the wideout being limited where unfounded as Jennings played extensively throughout the game, racking up 10 targets. He also had a touchdown catch called back in the fourth quarter, as he had stepped out at the goal line. Though he will now be on a short week, expect him to be a major factor in Week 4 against a weak Saints secondary that has already been burned by Pierre Garcon, Steve Smith, and Dwayne Bowe.

Greg Jennings: Active Monday

Jennings (groin) is active and starting Monday night's game against the Seahawks.

Analysis: It remains to be seen how close to 100 percent Jennings will be in his return, but he will at least give it a go, which is good news for owners who rolled the dice that he'd be available Monday.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Expected to Suit Up

Jennings is expected to play against the Seahawks on Monday, despite his lingering groin injury, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Analysis: We assume that Jennings will test things out in warmups before a final call is made on his Monday status, but there seems to be continuing optimism that he will give it a go.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Questionable For Week 3

The Packers have listed Jennings (groin) as questionable for Monday's game against the Seahawks, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Though the designation leaves Jennings' status in question, head coach Mike McCarthy is optimistic that Jennings will play after watching him make a "big jump" Saturday from where he was earlier in the week. Sunday's evaluation of Jennings' health will be the key to his Week 3 status, so be sure to look for another update with the Packers playing Monday night.

Jennings (groin) took part in Saturday's practice and appeared to be a full participant, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Possible Setback

Coach Mike McCarthy noted Thursday that Jennings (groin) is not where the Packers hoped he would be at this point, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: It sounds like Jennings experienced some sort of setback in the wake of practicing Tuesday, but it's unclear if it was a minor soreness issue or something that could impact his Week 3 status.

Though he was a non-participant, Jennings (groin) was in attendance for Thursday's practice and didn't appear to be limping, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy has previously indicated that he expects Jennings to play this week, but it's unclear if the wideout's absence from practice Thursday was simply for rest/maintenance purposes, or if it was indicative of a setback.

Jennings (groin) did not practice Thursday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Thursday's practice was not padded, so the Packers are likely just resting their star receiver, as they don't play until Monday night. He was a full participant for Tuesday's practice.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Returns to Practice Tuesday

Jennings (groin) returned to full practice Tuesday, foxsportswisconsin.com reports.

Analysis: Coach Mike McCarthy said Tuesday morning that he expected Jennings to be a limited participant during Tuesday's practice, so the fact that he was able to suit up in full pads is encouraging, especially since the Packers don't play until Monday night. Early signs are pointing towards Jennings returning to action for Week 3 against the Seahawks.

Greg Jennings: Should Return for Week 3

Coach Mike McCarthy said that he'd be surprised if Jennings (groin) was unable to play in Week 3's game against Seattle, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Analysis: That game is a week from Monday, which gives Jennings, who lobbied to play in Week 2, some extra healing time heading into the Packers' third game.

Jennings (groin) is reportedly making a push for the Packers to let him play Thursday against the Bears, NFL.com reports.

Analysis: Jennings is officially listed as doubtful, a designation which normally indicates that the player will be a no-go, but the call on Jennings actually seems to be shaping up more as a game-time decision at this point.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Doubtful Thursday

Jennings (groin) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against Chicago, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: With a short week to attempt to get healthy, it appears as if Jennings will be unavailable Thursday. The Packers' official Twitter page reports that he'll be evaluated before the game, when a definitive decision will be made. In the end, he may end up being a game-time decision, but that is looking especially murky at this point since he was held out of every practice this week.

Jennings (groin) was not on the field during the portion of practice open to reporters Wednesday, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Things don't look especially promising with regards to Jennings' chances of suiting up Thursday against the Bears, with a best-case scenario here probably being a game-time decision.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) Rehab Going Well

Jennings (groin) did not practice Tuesday, but his rehab is going well, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Head coach Mike McCarthy said that Wednesday will be a big day for Jennings in determining what his availability looks like Thursday night against the Bears.

Greg Jennings: (Groin) No Practice Tuesday

Jennings (groin) did not take part in Tuesday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: Jennings just suffered the injury Sunday, and with the Packers playing a Thursday game this week, his absence from Tuesday's session does not bode well for his chances of suiting up in Week 2.

Jennings suffered a groin injury late in the Packers' loss to the 49ers on Sunday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Jennings had five catches for 34 yards during Sunday's loss to the 49ers.

Analysis: Jennings was targeted nine times but was only able to haul in five of them. He was the fifth-leading receiver for the Packers behind James Jones, Randall Cobb, Jordy Nelson and Jermichael Finley. With so many weapons, it's bound to happen that way for Jennings.

Jennings future in question?

Though Green Bay Packers wideout Greg Jennings reportedly made statements putting his future with the team in question, NFL.com's Bryan McIntyre notes "the Packers could use the franchise tag on Jennings in 2013."

Analysis: For fantasy owners swayed by players in a contract year, Jennings fits the bill. He plays on one of the most explosive offenses and should have no problem racking up the points in 2012.

Jennings caught two passes for 37 yards during Thursday's preseason game.

Analysis: This was the first game of the preseason for Jennings so he's still getting some timing down. He should be ready for the start of the season after missing two weeks with a concussion.

Greg Jennings: (Concussion) Returns to Practice Sunday

Jennings (concussion) returned to practice Sunday, Tyler Dunne of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports.

Analysis: The report notes that Jennings should be healthy enough to be available for the Packers' third preseason game, Thursday against the Bengals. We'll have to see if they actually deploy him in that contest, or whether they exercise further caution play it safe with the wideout.

Jennings (concussion) could return to practice as soon as Sunday, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Analysis: The Packers have been cautious with Jennings, holding him out of Thursday's preseason game against the Browns. Jennings suffered the concussion Aug. 3 and hasn't been able to practice since.

Jennings (concussion) will not play in Thursday's preseason game against the Browns, the Packers' official Twitter page reports.

Analysis: Packers coach Mike McCarthy guessed Sunday that Jennings could return to action in "a couple days," but it makes sense that the team will err on the side of caution and hold out their star wideout.

Coach Mike McCarthy won't predict when Jennings (concussion) will return to action, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports. "I'm shooting in the dark here," McCarthy said. "There's testing that's involved and it's not going as well as I know Greg would like. Could be a couple days."

Analysis: Jennings suffered his concussion on Aug. 3 and hasn't been on the practice field since then. Jennings missed the Packers' exhibition opener and we'd be surprised to see him out there Thursday against Cleveland based on McCarthy's latest statement.

Greg Jennings: Out Thursday

Jennings (concussion) has been ruled out of Thursday's preseason game, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Analysis: While Jennings will miss Thursday's preseason game, he is still practicing, so his injury must not be very serious. The Packers have no reason to push Jennings and will let him recover fully from his concussion before letting play with contact.

Jennings is dealing with a concussion that he suffered in a scrimmage, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Analysis: That said, he hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's game against San Diego, at least thus far. Still, there's no reason to rush Jennings back on the field at this stage of the preseason, so consider him day-to-day.

Jennings, who is dealing with a bruised elbow, did not practice Monday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Greg Jennings: Knee Sprain

Following their win Sunday, the Packers said Jennings has a knee sprain, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

Analysis: Jennings did not return after leaving with the injury, but that could largely be due to the Packers 34-0 lead. It is bad timing for owners in the fantasy playoffs. Hopefully the knee sprain is nothing more than minor.

Greg Jennings: Hurts Knee

Jennings injured his knee Sunday against the Raiders, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: His return is considered questionable, especially with the Packers up 34-0 in the game.

Jennings caught seven passes for 94 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Giants.

Analysis: Jennings bruised his knee last week, but evidently he's past that injury, as he was able to snag all five of his targets Thursday.

Analysis: The practice was without pads and so Jennings' participation should be considered limited, but his presence Tuesday indicates that there's not much cause for concern regarding his Thursday availability at this point.

Jennings is dealing with a knee bruise, Kareem Copeland of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Analysis: Jennings' Week 12 status doesn't seem to be in any danger as a result of his knee bruise, but we'll let you know if that assessment changes as Thursday's game against the Lions approaches.

Jennings is dealing with a knee injury that isn't expected to affect his availability for Thursday's game against the Lions, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: We'll revisit his status Tuesday, but the availability of running back James Starks seems to be more of a question mark at this point than that of Jennings.

Greg Jennings: News

According to coach Mike McCarthy, Jennings should be fine after suffering a shin bruise Sunday against the Bucs, the Packers' official site reports.

Analysis: Jennings was limited to two catches for six yards Sunday, but assuming McCarthy's optimism is warranted, the wideout will have a chance to bounce back quickly, with Green Bay playing again Thursday against the Lions.
