Packers WR Geronimo Allison Has Chance to Play Week 7 After Status Update
By Parker White
The Green Bay Packers have been snake-bitten from an injury standpoint when it comes to their wide receiving corps. However, they received some encouraging news regarding wideout Geronimo Allison.
On Saturday, the Packers announced Allison has been upgraded on the injury report from doubtful to questionable, meaning there's a good chance he plays on Sunday against the Oakland Raiders.

Allison, who is dealing with a concussion and chest injury he suffered on Monday against the Detroit Lions, is one of the few options the Packers have at that position, as No. 1 wide receiver Davante Adams has already been ruled out due to turf toe.

Along with Allison, Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is also questionable for Sunday's game, as he's dealing with injuries to his left knee and left ankle.
He failed to practice all week, but he's hopeful that these injuries will improve enough so he can suit up against Oakland.
