49ers make roster moves, Packers don’t

Despite ruling out cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) and linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (hamstring) on Friday, the Green Bay Packers didn’t make any sort of adjustment — including a practice squad elevation — on Saturday. According to league rules, teams are allowed to elevate up to two practice squad players per week, though, players are only allotted three separate elevations from the practice squad in a single season before their elevations are exhausted. From that point, a player would need to be added to the 53-man roster to participate in games.

Meanwhile, the Packers’ opponent, the San Francisco 49ers, was very active this weekend.
