Packers wide receivers Randall Cobb
and Jordy Nelson
missed practice on Wednesday but they were back on Thursday in limited fashion and appear to be good to go for Saturday's divisional playoff against the 49ers. Nelson saw reduced snaps against the Vikings last week as he continues to be nagged by ankle and knee injuries, but he will play. Cobb missed Wednesday's session because of an illness and while head coach Mike McCarthy said Cobb is still not feeling his best, he also said "I don't have any doubt" he will play.
Tight end Jermichael Finley
went through a full practice, and running back James Starks
, who hasn't played since Dec. 2 because of a deep bone bruise in his knee, was also a full participant.
Fantasy Analysis:
The Packers' offense will be as deep this weekend as it has been all season. Nelson's usage is uncertain, but the other players on your fantasy playoff team should be available for their usual workload.
