Packers injury report Week 5: Latest on Christian Watson, Aaron Jones and more

The Green Bay Packers have dealt with some key injuries to begin the season but are starting to get healthier and are 2-2 to begin the season.

But, with some players returning to the lineup and getting healthier, it should help Green Bay.

Let's take at the Packers' injury report vs Raiders entering Week 5 of the 2023 season.

Aaron Jones was a limited participant in practice all week and is officially listed as questionable heading into Monday Night's game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Jones was also questionable last week and did play in the Packers' loss to the Detroit Lions. Also, Green Bay head coach Matt LaFleur indicated Jones' workload in practice was the same as last week, which should indicate that he will play.

Jaire Alexander has been dealing with a back injury and was a limited participant in every practice this week.

Alexander has missed the last two weeks but head coach Matt LaFleur said the safety did everything in practice they wanted him to do.

"He did everything we asked him to do. We'll see how he's feeling on Monday night."

Alexander is officially listed as questionable for Monday Night but it would be a big boost to the defense if he can play.

Watson made his season debut last week and caught two passes for 25 yards and a touchdown. It's likely he will receive more targets now that he is completely healthy.
