Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon and cornerback Jaire Alexander are in line to play on Sunday against the host Carolina Panthers.
Dillon missed Green Bay’s 34-20 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Sunday with a thumb injury. Alexander, in turn, has been sidelined since sustaining a shoulder injury in the Packers’ 20-3 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Nov. 5.
While Dillon and Alexander are active, the Packers (6-8) listed rookie wide receiver Jayden Reed as inactive for Sunday’s game. Reed has been nursing toe and chest injuries.
Also inactive for Green Bay are wide receiver Christian Watson, cornerback Robert Rochell, safety Darnell Savage, linebackers Brenton Cox Jr. and De’Vondre Campbell, and tackle Caleb Jones.
The Panthers (2-12) listed the following players as inactive: cornerback CJ Henderson, offensive linemen Eku Leota and Ricky Lee, wide receivers Mike Strachan and Terrace Marshall Jr., and defensive lineman Chris Wormley.
