ANALYSISVan Ness managed to fade an injury tag for Week 18 despite being limited in practice all week by a foot injury and illness. However, the Packers are locked in as the NFC's seventh seed, so he could operate on a snap count or be held out of Sunday's regular-season finale entirely. If Van Ness's snaps are limited, then
Arron Mosby,
Brenton Cox and
Barryn Sorrell would be in line for more snaps on defense.
