FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Green Bay edge rusher Lukas Van Ness has cleared concussion protocol while defensive tackle Javon Hargrave has been ruled out for the Packers’ game against the New York Jets on Sunday afternoon.

The Packers released those two updates to their injury report Saturday.

Van Ness had been listed as questionable and Hargrave was labeled as doubtful on Green Bay’s Friday injury report. Hargrave and Van Ness were in concussion protocol, and Hargrave also has been dealing with a knee issue.

Van Ness no longer appears on the injury report and will be available for Sunday’s game. He recorded a sack in the Packers’ season-opening 39-22 loss at Minnesota.
