Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Registers another limited practice
Van Ness (foot) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
Van Ness hasn't played since injuring his right foot against Cincinnati in Week 6. He resumed practicing (in limited fashion) last Thursday, and he's now been limited in four consecutive sessions. That gives Van Ness a chance of returning Sunday versus the Vikings, though he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend unless he's able to practice in full Friday.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Remains limited by foot injury
Van Ness (foot) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
Van Ness has missed five straight games with the foot injury. Dating back to last week, he's now logged three consecutive limited practices, so he's at least trending toward a return.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Not suiting up Week 11
Van Ness (foot) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Giants, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness was able to log a limited practice both Thursday and Friday, but that won't be enough for him to return to action just yet. Instead, the third-year defensive end will sit out a fifth straight game. Kingsley Enagbare should continue to work in a key rotational role with Van Ness sidelined again.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Questionable for Sunday
Van Ness (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness ended the week with back-to-back limited practices, and the consistency in participation likely means he is trending up ahead of Sunday's contest. However, if the 2023 first-rounder is unable to suit up this week, Kingsley Enagbare will likely continue to acquire the lion's share of rotational defensive end reps for the Packers' defense.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Limited in practice Thursday
Van Ness (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Van Ness logged his first practice in any capacity since he left the Packers' Week 6 win against the Bengals with a foot injury. The upgrade to limited participation signals a significant development in the defensive end's recovery, and if he is able to string some practices together, he may have a chance to suit up for Sunday's game against the Giants. A return to action for Van Ness would lead to a diminishing number of reps for rotational defensive end Kingsley Enagbare (knee).

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Estimated DNP on Wednesday
Van Ness (foot) was an estimated DNP at Wednesday's walkthrough.
Van Ness has missed four straight games and has yet to return to practice. Kingsley Enagbare (knee) has seen increased reps behind Rashan Gary and Micah Parsons (pectoral) off the edge for Green Bay during Van Ness' absence.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Not playing Monday
Van Ness (foot) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup versus the Eagles, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
Van Ness will miss a fourth consecutive game due to the foot injury he sustained in the Week 6 win over the Bengals. Head coach Matt LaFleur said that neither surgery nor injured reserve are currently being considered, though the injury hasn't healed as quickly as the team had hoped. Kingsley Enagbare and Barryn Sorrell should continue to see increased playing time in Van Ness's absence.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Absent from practice Thursday
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Van Ness (foot) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
Van Ness has missed three consecutive games due to a lingering foot injury, and the 2023 first-round pick hasn't been able to practice in any capacity in that span. If Van Ness is unable to retake the field in time to suit up at home against the Eagles on Monday, expanded defensive reps will continue going to Kingsley Enagbare and rookie fourth-rounder Barryn Sorrell.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Won't play against Carolina
Van Ness (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
The third-year defensive end will miss a third consecutive game due to a foot injury he sustained in Week 6 against the Bengals. He hasn't been able to practice in any capacity since the injury, so he would likely have to do so in at least a limited capacity to have a chance at returning for the Packers' Week 10 clash against the Eagles on Monday, Nov. 10. Kingsley Enagbare and rookie fourth-rounder Barryn Sorrell will continue to see extra snaps at defensive end in Van Ness's absence.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Officially doesn't practice
Van Ness (foot) did not practice Wednesday.
Coach Matt LaFleur noted earlier Wednesday that Van Ness wouldn't practice, but that he is considered day-to-day. That marks some progress, as Van Ness has been sidelined for each of Green Bay's last two games. He'll likely need to turn in a limited practice Thursday to have a realistic chance to play in Week 9 against the Panthers.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Considered day-to-day
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Van Ness (foot) won't practice Wednesday but is considered day-to-day, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Van Ness hasn't practiced since sustaining the foot injury in the Packers' Week 6 win over the Bengals. Though Van Ness isn't beginning Week 9 prep on the right foot, his day-to-day label suggests that he still has some chance of playing Sunday against the Panthers. The Iowa product likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to boost his potential of suiting up this weekend.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Won't play against Pittsburgh
Van Ness (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Van Ness sustained a foot injury during the Packers' Week 6 win over the Bengals, and he'll miss a second straight game as a result. The 2023 first-rounder has worked in a rotational role at defensive end this season, so his absence means more snaps are available for Kingsley Enagbare and rookie fourth-rounder Barryn Sorrell. Van Ness will look to progress enough in his recovery to return to practice during the Packers' Week 9 prep.

Packers' Lukas Van Ness: Sits out practice again Wednesday
Van Ness (foot) didn't practice Wednesday.
Van Ness is dealing with a foot injury that he suffered in Week 6 against Cincinnati. He didn't practice at all last week before missing Sunday's game against the Cardinals and still wasn't able to take the field to begin Week 8 prep. Van Ness was logging around half of Green Bay's defensive snaps on a weekly basis before getting hurt.
