Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander, who has only played 10 snaps since the end of October, isn\u2019t ready to play, according to Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. Despite being a full participant in the Packers\u2019 Wednesday and Thursday practices this week, Green Bay didn\u2019t see what they needed out of Alexander to be comfortable with him returning to the field against the Seattle Seahawks.<\/p>\n

LaFleur stated several times that Alexander being held out of practice on Friday and being ruled out against the Seahawks on Sunday wasn\u2019t a disciplinary action and wasn\u2019t a setback to his PCL injury. Mind you, Alexander hurt his PCL at the end of the Jacksonville Jaguars game on October 27th and played against the Chicago Bears on November 17th, but he was unable to finish that match and dropped out after 10 snaps. Since then, Alexander hasn\u2019t been activated for a game.<\/p>\n

The head coach cited Alexander\u2019s speed numbers in practice, which the Packers have access to via tracking data, as one metric that led to them making the ultimate decision. He said that he didn\u2019t want a repeat of the Bears game, where Green Bay apparently rushed Alexander back too quickly only for him to injure himself again.<\/p>\n

Without Alexander and slot defender Javon Bullard, the Packers will likely start Eric Stokes and Carrington Valentine as outside cornerbacks against the Seahawks with Keisean Nixon \u2014 who has been starting as an outside cornerback \u2014 in the slot. That\u2019s the lineup they played at the end of their game against the Detroit Lions last week following Bullard dropping out of action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
