Not suiting up Sunday Jones (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game at Houston, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Jones injured his calf at Thursday's practice and subsequently didn't practice Friday, earning a questionable designation in the process. On Saturday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette indicated the Packers weren't "expected to push him" to play, but Tom Pelissero of NFL Network countered Sunday morning, calling Jones a "game-time" decision. In the end, Jones' mild calf strain will result in his first absence of the season, allowing Jamaal Williams, AJ Dillon and even practice squad callup Dexter Williams to earn reps in Jones' stead.

Viewed as game-time decision Jones (calf) traveled with the Packers to Houston and is considered a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Texans, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette previously indicated that the Packers weren't expected to push the running back, whose MRI revealed what's being described as a very mild calf strain. Though Pelissero notes that Jones wants to play, he adds that "Green Bay's medical staff is always cautious" and if the team's top rusher isn't 100 percent, he won't go Sunday. In that scenario, Jamaal Williams and AJ Dillon would be in line for increased roles, with Dexter Williams in reserve. Final confirmation of Jones' Week 7 status will arrive upon the release of the Packers' inactives in advance of Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff.

Not expected to play Sunday Jones (calf) isn't expected to play in Sunday's game versus the Texans, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

Impact Although Jones relayed Friday that he was confident he'd play Sunday, this news was somewhat expected considering the soft-tissue injury surfaced during Thursday's practice. The official status will be handed down when the Packers release inactives about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. It's an appealing matchup for any backfield, as the Texans have allowed a league-high 177.5 rushing yards per game this year. Jamaal Williams figures to be the lead back Sunday, though rookie second-round pick AJ Dillon could command a handful of touches as well.

Officially deemed questionable Jones (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Houston, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Jones was a late addition to the injury report, missing practice Friday after he suffered a calf strain during Thursday's session. He hopes to be ready for Sunday, but he acknowledged it'll be up to the Packers training staff to make the final decision, per Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. On that note, Demovsky believes Jones is unlikely to play, pointing to the training staff's history of being cautious, especially with soft-tissue injuries (just ask Davante Adams). On the other hand, Jones said he's confident he can play, and coach Matt LaFleur said the running back is "more in the questionable category" than doubtful. Fortunately for fantasy managers, the Packers have a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, allowing for a plethora of fill-in options if Jones is inactive. Jamaal Williams would be the safest bet to see touches out of the Green Bay backfield, but rookie second-round pick AJ Dillon also would be in line for an expanded role.

Headed for game-time call Jones suffered a mild calf strain during Thursday's practice, potentially setting up a game-time decision Sunday in Houston, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Jones still wants to play in Sunday's game, but the final decision also figures to involve the team's medical staff, and it could depend on how the running back looks/feels during a pregame workout. If Jones isn't able to play, Jamaal Williams and AJ Dillon will handle backfield work for the Packers.

Not seen at practice Jones is absent from Friday's practice, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Jones hasn't been listed on the injury report this week, so his absence comes as a surprise. It's possible he's feeling ill or missing practice for personal reasons, but the Packers haven't provided an update yet.

Scores TD despite poor yardage Jones carried 10 times for 15 yards and a touchdown while adding three catches (on five targets) for 26 yards during Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Jones struggled to the tune of 1.5 yards per carry against a stout Bucs defense, though he did manage to score a short touchdown to get his team on the board in the first quarter. He was quite involved as a pass catcher yet again but did little in that department outside of his log gain of 20 yards. Jones had averaged 144.3 scrimmage yards over the last three games, so his struggles in this one can be largely be chalked up to a tough matchup and poor overall play by the offense. He could bounce back in a big way next Sunday against a Texans team that has been gashed by opposing running backs all season.
