Packers CB Josh Jackson Added to Injury Report With an Illness
By Jerry Trotta
There have been reports throughout the week indicating that the flu has been making the rounds inside the Green Bay Packers locker room ahead of their Divisional Round clash with the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Well, the ever-prevalent sickness has managed to breach the immune system of cornerback Josh Jackson, and Green Bay has now labeled him as questionable for tomorrow's showdown.

Clearly, Jackson didn't follow the simplistic instructions of wideout Davante Adams to combat germs.
The Iowa product missed the majority of training camp and still hasn't appeared to catch up to the swing of things. He's yet to log a start for the Packers in his sophomore campaign despite appearing in 14 games.

He'd love nothing more than to be on the field and help his team clinch a spot in Championship Weekend, but only time will tell if he's given that chance.
We'll be keeping tabs on Jackson's status, but an update likely won't be provided until Sunday morning.
