Javon Bullard - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Ready to rock Bullard (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Eagles, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard was sidelined for two weeks late in the season due to an ankle injury, but he played through the issue in Green Bay's last two regular-season games, recording 16 total tackles across 120 defensive snaps. His availability for the wild-card round was in question after logging a week of limited practice sessions; however, it now appears he'll continue to play through the injury. Expect the 2024 second-round pick from Georgia to serve as Green Bay's top slot defender Sunday.

Still working through ankle injury Bullard (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bullard was sidelined for Week 15 and 16 due to an ankle injury, but he managed to play through the issue in the Packers' final two games of the regular season. The rookie second-round pick should be able to suit up against Philadelphia in Sunday's wild-card round game unless he suffers a setback during practice this week. Bullard finished his first NFL regular season with 90 tackles (61 solo), one pass defense and one fumble recovery across 15 games.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Cleared to play Week 18 Bullard (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bears.

Impact Bullard was limited in practice all week but has been cleared to play against Chicago. A slot corner and safety for the Packers, Bullard enters Week 18 with 85 tackles (59 solo) and one pass breakup across 14 appearances this season.

Nursing ankle injury Bullard (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bullard co-led the Packers in tackling during their Week 17 loss to the Vikings, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury in the process. The rookie second-round pick would avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's divisional game against the Bears if he were able to practice fully Friday.

JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Double-digit tackles Sunday Bullard recorded 11 total tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.

Impact Bullard returned from injury and tied Edgerrin Cooper as the Packers' leading tackler in Sunday's narrow loss, tying his career best of 11 tackles in a single game. The rookie safety from Georgia has been an integral part of Green Bay's defense this season, recording 85 total tackles and one pass defended over 14 appearances. With Evan Williams (quadriceps) likely out of the Packers' Week 18 matchup against the Bears, Bullard is expected to start alongside Xavier McKinney as part of Green Bay's top safety duo.

DECEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returning to action in Week 17 Bullard (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup against Minnesota, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard will return to action after missing the past two weeks due to an ankle injury. His return bolsters a Packers secondary that will be without Evan Williams (quadriceps) for a second straight contest. Bullard has at least four tackles in each of his past 10 games.

DECEMBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Could return Sunday Bullard (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard was sidelined for the Packers' last two games due to an ankle injury, but he returned to practice in a limited fashion throughout the week, giving himself a chance to suit up Sunday. The rookie from Georgia would be a significant addition to the Packers' defense, having recorded 74 total tackles and one pass defended over 13 appearances this season. If Bullard can play in Week 17, he'll likely serve as Green Bay's starting strong safety with Evan Williams (quadriceps) already ruled out.

DECEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as limited participant Bullard (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in Green Bay's practice estimate Wednesday.

Impact Bullard has missed two straight games but is now trending towards making his return. If he ends up being able to suit up for Sunday's matchup versus the Vikings, he return to his role as the team's starting slot corner.

DECEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Monday Bullard (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game versus the Saints.

Impact Bullard missed last Sunday's win over the Seahawks with an ankle injury, which also kept him sidelined during practice Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week. The rookie safety will now turn his attention toward getting healthy for the matchup versus Minnesota on Sunday, Dec. 29. With Bullard out and fellow rookie Evan Williams (quad) listed as questionable, it's possible that core special-teamer Zayne Anderson will have to step into a starting role opposite free safety Xavier McKinney.

Logs another DNP Bullard (ankle) didn't practice Friday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bullard has not returned to practice since sustaining an ankle injury in the Packers' Week 14 loss to the Lions. He likely needs to practice in a limited capacity Saturday to have a chance at suiting up Monday night, when the Packers host the Saints. If Bullard misses his second consecutive game in Week 16, expect Keisean Nixon to move to slot corner, with Carrington Valentine starting as one of Green Bay's outside corners.

DECEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from practice Thursday Bullard (ankle) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bullard's ankle injury prevented him from suiting up Sunday versus the Seahawks, and his status still appears up-in-the-air heading into Monday's matchup against the Saints. The rookie second-round pick will likely need to resume practicing in at least a limited fashion Friday or Saturday to have a chance at suiting up Week 16.

DECEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Missing Week 15 Bullard (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday night's matchup against the Seahawks, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Bullard sustained a ankle injury in the Packers' Week 14 loss to the Lions and didn't practice all week, so it's no surprise he'll be sidelined Sunday. With Bullard missing the Week 15 contest, Green Bay will likely play Keisean Nixon, Eric Stokes and Carrington Valentine as their top three cornerbacks.

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Wednesday Bullard (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bullard hurt his ankle Week 14 against the Lions and was deemed week-to-week by Packers coach Matt LaFleur, so it's no surprise that the rookie didn't practice Wednesday. While it's not yet certain that he won't be able to suit up Sunday in Seattle, things appear to be trending that way. Bullard has been an every-week starter for the Packers during his first NFL campaign and hasn't yet missed a game.

DECEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

May miss time Head coach Matt LaFleur stated Monday that Bullard (ankle) is week-to-week, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

Impact Bullard suffered the injury in Thursday's loss to the Lions and left the locker room that night with a boot and crutches. His week-to-week status suggests he's likely a longshot to recover in time to suit up Sunday against the Seahawks, but a firmer stance on his status will likely come later in the week when Green Bay releases its first injury report.

DECEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Spotted in boot, with crutches Bullard (ankle) left the locker room with his right foot in a boot and on crutches following Thursday's 34-31 loss to the Lions, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bullard left Thursday's in the second half, further depleting the Green Bay secondary. Positively, he'll have 10 days to recover before the Packers square off with the Seahawks in Week 15, though the initial observations following the injury don't appear positive.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers ankle injury Bullard is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Lions due to an ankle injury.

Impact The Packers are very shorthanded in the secondary, as both Jaire Alexander (knee) and Corey Ballentine (knee) were inactive for the contest. Evan Williams (concussion) was lost earlier in the game, and Bullard was carted to the locker room for evaluation. The exact nature or seriousness of Bullard's issue is still unclear.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Another strong showing Bullard recorded seven total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 38-10 win over the 49ers.

Impact The rookie defensive back from Georgia tied Quay Walker as the Packers' leading tackler in Sunday's blowout win, playing 98 percent of the team's defensive snaps. Bullard, who's transitioned from playing safety to playing in the slot, has now posted 66 total tackles and one pass defended across his first 11 games in the NFL. He's expected to continue serving as one of Green Bay's top tacklers in Week 13, when the Packers host the Dolphins on Thursday night.

NOVEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies eight stops vs. Chicago Bullard recorded eight total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Bears.

Impact Despite logging his second-lowest defensive snap share (72 percent) of the season Sunday, Bullard finished as one of Green Bay's top tacklers, trailing Xavier McKinney and Carrington Valentine, who each posted nine stops. The 2024 second-round pick from Georgia is off to a strong start through the first 10 games of his rookie campaign, having recorded 59 total tackles and one pass defended while primarily playing in the slot. He's expected to continue improving as he adapts to his new position throughout the season.
