Anderson suffered the concussion during his side's loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. He'll need to feature in some capacity on Thursday or Friday to have a decent chance at featuring in the wild-card round.

Tedarrell Slaton's injury update

According to the Green Bay Packers website, Tedarrell Slaton did not practice on Wednesday. The defensive lineman has an ankle injury.

Slaton will have two training sessions this week to prove his availability for the game against the Eagles. Colby Wooden will be waiting in the wings just in case he's unable to participate.

Christian Watson's injury update

According to Yahoo Sports, Christian Watson is out for the season. The Packers wide receiver tore his anterior cruciate ligament in a loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 18.

Matt LaFleur broke the news to the press on Monday after the game. Watson ended the regular season with 29 catches, 620 receiving yards and two touchdowns. His injury is a major blow to the Packers' playoff hopes.

Watson's career has been blighted by injuries thus far. He missed eight regular-season games last season. The veteran wide receiver will now focus on rehabilitation while his teammates face off against the Eagles in the wild-card round.

Jordan Love's injury update

According to Yahoo Sports, Jordan Love participated only partially in Wednesday's training session. This comes after the star quarterback suffered an elbow injury against the Chicago Bears in the last game of the regular season.

Love remains confident of being fit enough to play against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Green Bay Packers will look to manage his reps judiciously for the rest of the week, so he'll be in prime condition for a playoff run.
