Trio of Packers starters miss full week of practice before showdown with Lions

The Green Bay Packers had quarterback Jordan Love available for a second straight day of practice on Friday, but a trio of starters — cornerback Jaire Alexander, safety Evan Williams and center Josh Myers — missed a third consecutive day of practice, per Wes Hodkiewicz of the team’s official site. All three must now be considered unlikely to play Sunday against the Detroit Lions.

The final injury report with playing status designations arrives later Friday afternoon. Expect the Packers to list Alexander, Myers and Williams as out or doubtful to play.

Alexander is dealing with a knee injury suffered against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday.
