Impact Bullard was a limited participant in all three of Green Bay's practices leading up to the postseason opener. He injured his knee in the regular-season finale against the Vikings, describing the injury to reporters as a slight hyperextension.

He'll look to add to his tackling total against the Ravens in Week 17.

Green light to play Week 15 Bullard (ankle) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard has been working through a lingering ankle injury since mid-November but has not missed a game. That trend will continue after the second-year pro was a full participant in Friday's practice, which was good enough to fade an injury tag for Sunday's road tilt. In the nine games since the Packers' Week 5 bye, Bullard has accumulated 42 tackles (24 solo), two pass defenses and one fumble recovery.

Questionable for Week 14 Bullard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard missed the last two practices of the week while tending to an ankle injury, but he was still tagged as questionable and has a chance to be cleared to play if he goes through Sunday's pregame warmups without sustaining a setback. If Bullard doesn't play, then Bo Melton and Kamal Hadden could be thrust into the slot corner position for Week 14.
