Packers placed WR Randall Cobb (broken leg) on injured reserve/designated to return.
Cobb won't be eligible to practice for six weeks, and can't return to game action until Week 15. It makes him safely droppable outside of Dynasty leagues, as there's no guarantee he'll be immediately reinserted into an every-down role. It's a bitterly disappointing development, as Cobb was on pace for 1,612 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns coming into Week 6. Jarrett Boykin will take Cobb's place in three-receiver sets, and could start opposite Jordy Nelson this Sunday if James Jones (knee) isn't ready.
