Ford missed the last two games due to a bicep injury and was limited in practice this week. After being listed as questionable, he's been cleared to return to action for Sunday's primetime matchup.
Green Bay's starting strong safety has missed the team's last two contests with this biceps issue, but he was able to log a week of limited practice sessions, and he's got a chance to return in Week 13. If Ford is unable to suit up this weekend, Anthony Johnson would likely make the fourth start of his career in the Packers' secondary.
Ford has been sidelined for two straight games while dealing with a biceps injury, so he'll look to build off of Wednesday's practice as the week goes on. The safety has recorded a career-high 58 tackles through eight games this season and his return would provide a major boost to Green Bay's secondary ahead of their matchup with the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.
Ford will miss his second straight game as he continues to deal with a biceps injury. The veteran safety was estimated as a limited participant in practice all three days leading up to Thursday's contest, and he'll look to get back on the field for next Sunday's Week 13 clash against the Chiefs. Anthony Johnson played every defensive snap in Ford's stead last week against the Chargers and is likely in line for a similar role on Thanksgiving.
Ford missed last week's win versus the Chargers due to a biceps injury and is now officially listed as questionable for the upcoming matchup versus Detroit. If the 29-year-old is unable to suit up on Thursday, Anthony Johnson should start at safety in Ford's place.
