GREEN BAY – The Packers have listed seven questionable and ruled out three for Sunday's matchup with the Arizona Cardinals.
Among those questionable are running back Josh Jacobs (illness/calf), cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee), kicker Brandon McManus (right quadricep), tackles Zach Tom (oblique/back) and Anthony Belton (ankle), center/guard Jacob Monk (hamstring/injured reserve) and receiver Dontayvion Wicks (ankle).
Green Bay ruled out defensive linemen Devonte Wyatt (knee) and Lukas Van Ness (foot) after neither practiced this week. Receiver Christian Watson (knee), who's on the physically unable to perform list, also won't play against the Cardinals after practicing for a second straight week in a limited capacity.
While a calf injury was added to Jacobs' injuries, the Pro Bowl running back was listed as a full participant on Friday. Hobbs was added to the injury report after being limited in Friday's practice.
McManus missed his first NFL game due to injury last Sunday against Cincinnati and didn't practice this week. However, the 12th-year veteran said on Thursday he still isn't ruling out playing in Arizona.
"In my opinion, we can be a little more aggressive now that from the injury we're a little further away," McManus said. "The warmup is one thing because it's in a short time but kicking for over three, four hours in a game, depending on the detriment it could be, they didn't want to make it worse, they didn't want to make it a three-, four-week type injury.
"Am I feeling better? Yes. And it's kind of a similar process of what we're game-planning to try to get up to."
If McManus can't go, the Packers will again turn to second-year kicker Lucas Havrisik, who went 2-for-2 on field goals and made three extra points in Sunday's 27-18 win over Cincinnati.
Tom played through pain to see all 61 snaps against the Bengals. He's also working to get his conditioning back after not playing a full game in nearly a month.
The fourth-year tackle sat out of practice on Wednesday but returned in a limited capacity Thursday.
"I think we've got a good plan this week, though," Tom said. "And for the following weeks. Practice-wise and all that, just so I can get through it. … Hopefully it gets better, slowly."
Packers didn't issue a game status for four players who will be available: receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder), guard Aaron Banks (groin/knee), tackle/guard Jordan Morgan (knee), and defensive lineman Warren Brinson (abdomen/neck).
Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is questionable after being limited this week, along with offensive lineman Will Hernandez (knee), safety Kitan Crawford (ankle), receiver Zay Jones (knee) and defensive lineman Darius Robinson (pectoral).
Running back Emari Demercado (ankle) and defensive tackle Walter Nolen (calf) have been ruled out.
Receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) was a full participant in practice Friday and did not receive a game status for Sunday.
The following Cardinals player didn't receive a game status and will be available: running back Bam Knight (knee), cornerback Darren Hall (quadricep), linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither (foot), safety Dadrion Taylor-Demerson (ankle), and receiver Michael Wilson (foot).
