News

  • Released by Carolina

    The Panthers released Ford on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Ford was placed on injured reserve with a hamstring injury during the playoffs while with the Packers last season and signed with Carolina just 13 days ago. The 29-year-old has appeared in 86 career games (21 starts) and has six interceptions across the last three years. Ford should find work elsewhere at some point in 2024.

  • Links up with Carolina

    The Panthers signed Ford (hamstring) to a contract Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Ford ended last season on IR with the Packers due to a hamstring injury, but he's now passed his physical with Carolina. The veteran safety boasts substantial NFL experience and could earn a significant depth role in the Panthers' secondary.

  • Lands on IR

    Ford (hamstring) was placed on the Packers' injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: Ford was sidelined for the Packers' previous three games and apparently was not nearing a return. In his absence, Anthony Johnson and Zayne Anderson could see some extra reps providing depth at safety behind Jonathan Owens and Darnell Savage.

  • Won't play vs. Bears

    Ford (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game versus the Bears, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Ford will be sidelined for his fourth game this season in Week 18, this time due to a hamstring injury. In his absence, rookie seventh-rounder Anthony Johnson figures to pick up any scraps at safety left by Darnell Savage and Jonathan Owens.

  • Unavailable Thursday

    Ford (hamstring) did not participate at the Packers' practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Ford has now missed each of Green Bay's first two sessions of the week, including Wednesday's walkthrough, putting his Week 18 availability into doubt. The safety has one more opportunity to return to the practice field Friday, but if he can't go in Week 18, Anthony Johnson is a candidate to see an increase in workload against Chicago.

  • Pops up on injury report

    Ford (hamstring) was considered to be a nonparticipant at the Packers' walk-through Wednesday.

    Analysis: Ford played through a back issue in Green Bay's 33-10 win over the Vikings in Week 17, but he is now apparently nursing a hamstring issue. The safety will look to erase any concern about his availability for Sunday's crucial matchup with the Bears by logging a full practice at one of the team's final two sessions of the week.

  • Will play Sunday

    Ford (back) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ford popped up on Green Bay's injury report as a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a back issue, but it seems as if he'll play through the pain in Week 16. The 29-year-old is coming off an eight-tackle outing in Week 15, and he'll likely start alongside Jonathan Owens in the Packers' secondary Sunday.

  • Could play Week 16

    Ford (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    Analysis: Ford was a late addition to the Packers' injury report, as he popped up as a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a back issue. The 29-year-old safety has been productive when he's been on the field this season, but if he's forced to miss his fourth game of the year in Week 16, expect Jonathan Owens to start at strong safety.

  • Active against Kansas City

    Ford (biceps) is active for Sunday night's game against Kansas City, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Could return Week 13

    Ford (biceps) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: 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, so he has a chance to return 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.

  • Limited participant at practice

    Ford (biceps) was a limited participant at the Packers' practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Unable to play Week 12

    Ford (biceps) is inactive for Thursday's Thanksgiving matchup with the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: 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 a Week 13 clash against the Chiefs on Dec. 3. 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.

  • Officially listed as questionable

    Ford (biceps) is questionable for Green Bay's game against the Lions on Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Listed as limited Tuesday

    Ford (bicps) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

    Analysis: Ford's limited status marks back-to-back days for the strong safety ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Lions. More clarity on his status will come on Wednesday's injury report, but Anthony Johnson would be the likely candidate to fill in at strong safety if needed.

  • Ruled out for Week 11

    Ford (biceps) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Chargers, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official website reports.

    Analysis: Ford first appeared on Green Bay's injury report Tuesday with a biceps issue and he'll now be forced to take a seat Sunday against Los Angeles. Rookie Anthony Johnson will replace the 29-year-old in the Packers' secondary for Week 11.

  • Likely out Week 11

    Ford (biceps) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old safety popped up on Green Bay's injury report Tuesday with a biceps issue, and he was held out of practice all week. If Ford were to miss his second game in the last three weeks this Sunday, rookie Anthony Johnson would likely see more snaps in the Packers' secondary.

  • Misses practice Thursday

    Ford (biceps) did not practice for the second day in a row Thursday.

    Analysis: The safety's status appears in doubt for Sunday's game against the Chargers. Ford played all 60 defensive snaps in Week 10 versus the Steelers but missed Week 9 with a calf injury. The seventh-year pro has 58 tackles, four passes defensed and two interceptions in eight games this season.

  • Sidelined with biceps injury

    Ford (biceps) did not practice Wednesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Ford played 100 percent of the defensive snaps in the Week 10 loss to the Steelers, so it's unclear when he picked up the injury. He missed Week 9 with a calf issue. On the season, Ford has 58 tackles (39 solo), four pass breakups and two interceptions.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Double-digit tackles in loss

    Ford recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Ford was able to record a season-high amount of tackles in the Packers' narrow defeat in Pittsburgh, picking up where he left off after missing Week 9 with a calf injury by reaching at least six tackles for the seventh contest in a row. Ford is now up to a career-high 58 stops while also deflecting four passes and intercepting two others over eight games so far in 2023.

  • Will take the field

    Ford (calf) is active Sunday against the Steelers.

    Analysis: Ford's absence will end at one game after he missed Week 9 against the Rams. His ability to suit up should be good news for Green Bay's secondary, which is already without Jaire Alexander (shoulder).

  • Questionable for Week 10

    Ford (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Despite returning to practice during the week, Ford is in danger of missing his second straight game as he deals with a calf injury. If he can't go Sunday, rookie seventh-rounder Anthony Johnson will probably start at safety again.

  • Returns to practice

    Ford (calf) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Ford was unable to practice Friday and missed the team's loss to the Rams on Sunday. However, the Auburn product was at least able to get back on the field in some capacity ahead of the team's Week 10 matchup with the Steelers, which should be a step in the right direction.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Ford (calf) will not play Sunday against the Rams, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ford practiced in full Wednesday, participated on a limited basis Thursday and then missed Friday's session. The seventh-year pro started Green Bay's first seven games and recorded 48 tackles, four passes defensed and two interceptions. Dallin Leavitt and/or Anthony Johnson are in line to replace him.

  • Questionable against Rams

    Ford (calf) was a non-participant during Friday's practice and is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Rams.

    Analysis: Ford popped up as a limited participant Thursday after practicing in full Wednesday. While the nature and severity of this groin issue are still unclear, the 28-year-old appears to be in serious jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. Ford has played just about every defensive snap after stepping into the Packers' starting strong safety spot, tallying 48 tackles, four passes defended and two picks over seven games. Should Ford sit out, expect Dallin Leavitt and/or Anthony Johnson to…read more

  • Tending to calf injury

    Ford (calf) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Ryan Wood of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Ford practiced in full Wednesday, so he presumably picked up the calf issue at practice during the week. If he can't upgrade to full participation Friday, he'll likely carry an injury designation into the weekend.

  • Another solid outing Sunday

    Ford recorded seven tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 19-17 loss at Denver.

    Analysis: Ford managed seven-plus tackles for the fifth straight game in Week 7, and he continued to dominate Green Bay's allotment of safety snaps (55). He's on pace for his first career 100-tackle season, and he projects as a solid IDP play in Week 8 versus Minnesota.

  • Gets another pick

    Ford recorded nine tackles (five solo) and one interception in the Packers' Week 5 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: Ford's tackle tally was his third straight week seeing an increase and a season-high. His pick was also his second in as many weeks. His reliability should also be noted, as the safety has not missed a snap for four consecutive weeks. He will now look to carry his current momentum through Green Bay's bye week and into Week 7.

  • Set to play Monday

    Ford (oblique) is active for Green Bay's game against the Raiders on Monday, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Ford popped up on the injury report earlier in the week with an oblique injury but is good to go for Monday's game. Through four games, the 28-year-old has logged 26 tackles (19 solo) with an interception and will look to add to those totals against the Raiders.

  • Deemed questionable for MNF

    Ford (oblique) is questionable to play against the Raiders in Week 6 on Monday Night Football, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Ford appeared on the injury report with an oblique injury and didn't practice Thursday, but he was able to return in a limited fashion Friday and has a chance to suit up Monday. Should Ford be unable to play, Dallin Leavitt and/or Jonathan Owens could take on a larger role in Green Bay's secondary.

  • Returns to practice Friday

    Ford (oblique) logged a limited practice session Friday.

    Analysis: Oblique injuries can be difficult to recover from, so it's a good sign for Ford's prognosis that he was able to practice -- albeit in limited fashion -- Friday after sitting out entirely Thursday. The Packers don't play until Monday, giving the safety an extra day to recover. Ford played in all 17 contests for Green Bay last year and has been on the field for almost every defensive snap this season, tallying 26 tackles (19 solo) and an interception through four games.

  • Logs another DNP

    Ford (oblique) didn't practice Thursday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Green Bay's starting safety has been held out of practice all week with an oblique injury, but there's hope he could practice Friday and play Monday night against the Raiders, according to head coach Matt LeFleur. Ford has racked up 26 tackles, three pass deflections and one interception through the first four games.

  • Logs eight tackles

    Ford registered eight tackles (seven solo) and a pass deflection during Green Bay's 34-20 loss to Detroit on Thursday.

    Analysis: Ford logged seven or more tackles for the third straight game and currently has 26 overall on the season. The 28-year-old will look to build on his strong start to the year against the Raiders on Monday.

  • Earns starting role

    Ford is expected to start at strong safety alongside Darnell Savage heading into the season, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports

    Analysis: With Adrian Amos leaving Green Bay following a four-year tenure as the starting strong safety, the position was up for grabs when training camp kicked off. It looks like Ford beat out Jonathan Owens for the opportunity. The 28-year-old had stints in Arizona, Philadelphia and Jacksonville before landing in Green Bay last year. He played in all 17 games, including six starts, in 2022 while recording three interceptions, one fumble recovery, and 44 tackles (31 solo).

  • Re-signs with Green Bay

    Ford signed with the Packers on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Ford will return to the Packers after recording 44 tackles (31 solo) and three interceptions for them last season. The 28-year-old is coming off the best season of his career and will now look for an opportunity to compete for the starting job. Alongside Tarvarius Moore, Ford is now the second safety the Packers have signed this offseason as they look to improve their depth in the secondary.

  • Fills regular role in 2022

    Ford recorded 44 tackles (31 solo), three interceptions and three pass deflections over 17 appearances during the 2022 season.

    Analysis: Ford proved to be a good find for the Packers last offseason, as he appeared in every game the team played and even made a career-high six starts. He will be a free agent this offseason, so it remains to be seen which team he will suit up for moving forward.

  • Cleared from injury report

    Ford (illness) was a full participant on Thursday's practice report, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Ford sat out practice Wednesday, but it appears he's fully recovered from the illness. The veteran safety has seen a major uptick in work over the last two weeks, so his ability to suit up Sunday against the Eagles should be good news for the team's secondary.

  • Sits out practice Wednesday

    Ford did not practice Wednesday due to an illness.

    Analysis: Ford has seen an increased role over Green Bay's past two games, totaling 93 defensive snaps and recording eight tackles and two interceptions. The severity of his illness is uncertain, and he'll have two more opportunities to get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's Week 12 clash against the Eagles.

  • Records two picks in win

    Ford had four solo tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's 31-28 overtime victory over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: The special-teams specialist had logged all of 19 defensive snaps in the five games that preceded Sunday's, but he was out there a season-high 60 times in Week 10, and that afforded him the opportunity to pick up his first two picks since joining the Packers in late August. Given how Ford fared, chances are he will continue getting more chances to show what he can do when the opponent has the ball.

  • Signs with Packers

    Ford was signed by the Packers on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Ford has found a new home just two days after he was released by the Jaguars. The safety produced career-best numbers in 2021 with Jacksonville and will operate as a depth option behind Adrian Amos in the Packers' secondary this season.

  • Cut by Jacksonville

    The Jaguars released Ford on Monday.

    Analysis: Ford set career highs in games played (15), defensive snaps (408) and tackles (53) during his only season in Jacksonville, but he won't make the team's initial 53-man roster in 2022. Before his breakout campaign last year, he primarily operated as a special-teams asset with the Cardinals and Eagles.

  • Clears COVID-19 list

    Ford was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Ford missed the final two games of the regular season due to COVID-19 protocols. He finished the 2021 campaign with 53 tackles, three pass deflections, one interception and half a sack across 15 appearances.

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    Ford (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

    Analysis: Ford has played at least 20 defensive snaps in every contest since Week 6, so his potential absence would be a significant blow to the Jaguars' defense. If he's unable to clear protocols ahead of Week 17, then Nevin Lawson would likely see increased snaps at slot cornerback against the Patriots.

  • Secures first interception

    Ford had seven tackles (all solo), three passes defensed and an interception during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Ford has taken on a larger defensive role over the past few weeks and played all but one defensive snap Sunday, and in the process he grabbed the first interception of his career. The 27-year-old primarily played special teams across his first four NFL seasons, but he's playing himself into a more significant defensive role during his first year in Jacksonville.

  • Back to work Thursday

    Ford (hamstring) was a full participant during Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Ford has missed the past four games due to the hamstring issue, but he appears on track to suit up Week 15. Ford has accumulated nine tackles (eight solo) through five games this season, all coming on special teams, so his return to active status won't have an impact from an IDP perspective.

  • Unavailable for Week 14

    Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Saints.

    Analysis: Ford is tied for 10th in the league with nine special-teams tackles despite playing just five games this season. He'll now miss a fourth consecutive game, and he'll look to recover for next week's matchup against the Cardinals.

    Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Packers.

    Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Browns.

    Analysis: Ford didn't take the practice field all week, and he'll sit out for a third straight game. It's a major loss for the Eagles on special teams, as he's piled up nine special-teams tackles (second in the league) through just five games,

  • Return remains questionable

    Ford (hamstring) has been labeled as questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Giants.

    Analysis: Ford resided on IR for 23 days in October while dealing with a hamstring injury, and he again is confronted with an issue midgame. The Auburn product has yet to field a single snap on the defensive side for Philadelphia this season, after last year carrying a nearly exclusive special-teams role.

  • Heads to IR

    Ford (hamstring) landed on injured reserved Thursday.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old was forced to sit out Week 3 because of a groin injury, but he was able to return for a Sunday night matchup against the 49ers, fielding nine special-teams snaps before being ruled out at halftime with a new injury. Ford's latest issue will keep him out for at least three weeks given his IR designation, meaning that Philadelphia will have to search elsewhere for special teams and safety depth.

    Analysis: Ford had been playing an expanded role in Philadelphia's injury-riddled secondary, but he has been forced out of the game against San Francisco, at least for the moment.
