Ballentine (ankle) is good to go for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. Ballentine missed his first game of the year last week against the Jaguars. He could be in for a bigger role than usual with Jaire Alexander (knee) sidelined.

Ballentine (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. Ballentine was a DNP for all three practices this week due to an ankle injury, and he will miss his first game of the regular season. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 9 against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 3. Eric Stokes will be the Packers' top corner reserve Sunday behind starters Keisean Nixon and Jaire Alexander.

Ballentine (ankle) did not practice Friday and has been listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Ballentine has been unable to practice all week due to an ankle injury, and it's unlikely that he'll play Sunday. If he's indeed inactive, Eric Stokes would operate as the Packers' top backup corner behind starters Jaire Alexander and Keisean Nixon.

Ballentine (undisclosed) practiced Friday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. Ballentine opened training camp on the active/non-football injury list due to an undisclosed issue, but he appears to be back to full health. The veteran cornerback is expected to have a rotational role in Green Bay's secondary during the coming campaign while also logging time on special teams.

Ballentine registered a career-high 43 tackles (28 solo), an interception and seven passes defended over 14 games in the 2023 regular season. Ballentine played all of 17 defensive snaps over the previous three seasons combined, but he played a career-high 463 for the Packers in 2023 and even made six starts due to injuries in the secondary, although he played only three defensive snaps in the divisional round against the 49ers. He will be a free agent this offseason and will look to catch on somewhere in a depth role.
