Friday's practice came and went for the Green Bay Packers in anticipation of the Wild-Card game at Lambeau Field, and along with it comes the official game statuses for the players who've been affected by injuries this week. Finally, I have a lot of good news to share. Just take a look at the table below to see what I mean:
| Player | Injury | Friday Practice Status | Game Status |
| Randall Cobb | Ankle | Full | Probable |
| Jermichael Finley | Quadricep | Full | Probable |
| Alex Green | Knee | Full | Probable |
| Davon House | Hip | Full | Probable |
| Jordy Nelson | Knee | Full | Probable |
| Tramon Williams | Illness | Limited | Probable |
| Charles Woodson | Collarbone | Full | Probable |
| James Starks | Knee | Limited | Questionable |
| Jarrett Boykin | Ankle | Did not practice | Out |
| Jerel Worthy | Knee | Did not practice | Out |
Guys, the Packers' receiving weapons are ready to go. Having all five key receiving options (Cobb, Finley, and Nelson to go along with James Jones and Greg Jennings) will be sure to give the Vikings' defense matchup problems. One thing I'm really looking forward to is that even if Antoine Winfield plays, he won't be able to key on a single Packers' slot receiver, since both Cobb and Jennings excel in that role.
Tramon Williams also looks to have bounced back from his flu symptoms and practiced some today. Unless he has another setback, I imagine that he'll be back and ready to go 100% tomorrow night. Another possibility that hadn't seemed relevant to me until now is that James Starks may even be available this week, which could give the Packers four (four!) options at running back.
On the other side, here is the Vikings' injury report, which features the aforementioned Winfield:
| Player | Injury | Friday Practice Status | Game Status |
| Jared Allen | Shoulder | Full | Probable |
| A.J. Jefferson | Ankle | Full | Probable |
| George Johnson | Quad | Full | Probable |
| Chris Kluwe | Knee | Full | Probable |
| Phil Loadholt | Knee | Full | Probable |
| Adrian Peterson | Abdomen | Full | Probable |
| Brian Robison | Shoulder | Full | Probable |
| Harrison Smith | Knee | Full | Probable |
| Christian Ponder | Elbow | Limited | Questionable |
| Antoine Winfield | Hand | Limited | Questionable |
| Tyrone McKenzie | Shoulder | Did not practice | Out |
Half of this list shouldn't even be there, because Allen, Jefferson, Johnson, Kluwe, and Loadholt practiced fully all week. What's interesting (along with Winfield's status) is that Ponder is listed as questionable. We'll see tomorrow if that elbow injury is serious or if the Vikings were just keeping Ponder on a "pitch count" in practice this week.
We'll post the inactives tomorrow afternoon as soon as we hear them.
