Jones (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has been a revelation in his return to Green Bay this season, leading the team with 317 receiving yards and matching Randall Cobb's four touchdowns catches for most on the Packers. Continue to watch Jones' status throughout the week to make sure he's available Sunday versus the Rams.

Jones caught 5-of-6 targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 17-3 win at San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Jones made a ridiculous 38-yard grab on the sideline at one point in the second half, showing great chemistry with Aaron Rodgers. The veteran wideout failed to score a touchdown in a game for the first time this season, although he's now put up back-to-back strong yardage totals. With Davante Adams (ankle) still hobbling, expect Jones to continue to be one of Aaron Rodgers' favorite targets, especially in the red zone. Next week, Jones and the Packers will take on the Rams at home.

Jones led the Packers with seven receptions (on eight targets) for 139 yards and one touchdown in Monday night's win over the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Jones' successful return to Green Bay continued Monday night, as the 31-year-old scored his fourth touchdown of the campaign with a 2348 reception before halftime and then sprung loose for a game-high 52 yard gain during the second half. In fact, Jones' 139 receiving yards marked the third-best single-game total of his nine-year career. As a top target in the Packers' potent passing game, Jones has emerged as a must-start fantasy player to begin this season.

Jones caught one pass for a 29-yard touchdown on three targets in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Jones has scored three touchdowns in two games, despite having just five catches and eight targets. Davante Adams will likely draw more targets than the veteran, but Aaron Rodgers still seems to like throwing to Jones near the end zone. Jones thus has a reasonable ceiling every week, though his uncertain volume and touchdown-dependent style mean he also has a very low floor. The Packers face the Chiefs on Monday Night Football in Week 3.

Jones had four catches on four targets for 51 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Jones finished with fewer targets than Davante Adams (eight) and Randall Cobb (five), but he caught Aaron Rodgers' first two touchdown passes, as the two clearly still have solid chemistry. The scores were both inside the red zone, a 13-yarder and a five-yarder, and while Jones has never been a big yardage threat, he will have solid fantasy value if Rodgers keeps looking his way near the end zone.

To make room for Jones on the team's roster, the Packers released Myles White, ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
In his return to Green Bay, Jones slots in behind Randall Cobb and Davante Adams, but it's not hard to imagine Jones claiming the team's No. 3 wideout slot -- ahead of Ty Montgomery and Jeff Janis -- an assignment that carries with it some fantasy utility in the context of the Packers' Aaron Rodgers-helmed passing offense.

The Packers plan to sign Jones, ESPN's Rob Demovsky reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones, who recorded 73 catches (on 112 targets) for 666 yards and six touchdowns for the Raiders last season, couldn't stick with the Giants this year, but given his previous run with the Packers (2007-13), he should fit back into the 2015 Green Bay receiving corps rather seamlessly. With Jordy Nelson on IR, Jones could end up being the team's No. 3 wideout behind Randall Cobb and Davante Adams, though in order to cement such a role he will have to hold off the challenges of both Ty Montgomery and Jeff Janis.

The Packers have had discussions with Jones' agent, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
While there is no deal to report here, the team's interest in Jones makes perfect sense, given his past experience with the team and the fact that Green Bay's wideout corps has been hit by injuries of late.

Jones was released by the Giants on Saturday, NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jones was merely competing for the fourth or fifth spot on the depth chart, and the Giants decided to go with younger options. He could draw interest before the start of the season, possibly from the Packers or Panthers.

Jones caught four passes on five targets for 54 yards in Saturday's game against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran led the team in receiving for the second straight week and he appears to have the inside track to make the roster as the Giants' fourth receiver. Even if he does make the team, Jones will have a minimal role heading into the season behind the likes of Odell Beckham, Victor Cruz, and Rueben Randle.
