Bullard suffered a bone bruise on his right foot last Sunday and appears to be progressing well in his rehab.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Exits practice early
Rotowire
Bullard (undisclosed) exited Sunday's practice early and was talking with trainers, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
It is unclear what type of issue caused Bullard to leave the field. Kitan Oladapo took over as the slot cornerback for the first team when Bullard left and will presumably fill the role if the starter must miss time. Rookie second-round pick Brandon Cisse may also get a shot at the slot cornerback or third safety role if Bullard must take a prolonged absence.

Rotowire
Bullard (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's wild-card game against the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Bullard was a limited participant in all three of Green Bay's practices leading up to the postseason opener.

Rotowire
Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Bullard is in the concussion protocol following the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
It's unclear when Bullard suffered the injury, but he will have to pass through the league's five-step concussion protocol before returning to action, which puts him in jeopardy of missing the Packers' Week 4 clash against the Cowboys on Sunday night.

Packers' Javon Bullard: Notches nine tackles
Rotowire
Bullard tallied nine tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 27-13 victory over the Lions.
Bullard started at safety alongside Xavier McKinney and finished second in tackles among Packers defenders in Week 1. When Green Bay puts extra defensive backs on the field, Bullard will generally be used in the slot while Evan Williams works at safety, but playing closer to the ball could allow the former more opportunities to rack up stops.
