The Green Bay Packers placed Jaire Alexander on injured reserve due to a sprained AC joint, but the star cornerback's absence could extend well beyond a few weeks.
Doctors are expected to decide in the next two weeks whether Alexander, one of the top defensive players in the NFL, will miss multiple weeks, or the remainder of the season, sources told ESPN.
Alexander already has had multiple doctors review the test results of his shoulder, and more opinions are expected over the next two weeks before a determination is made, one source told ESPN.
