Not yet. The update should come in later today.
Davante Adams’ Turf Toe Injury: How Long Is Packers WR Recovery Time?
Excerpt:
With the amount of pain that Adams said that he was in last night, it is either a Grade 2 or Grade 3 turf toe injury.

Allison is on the WW, and my bench WR's are Allan Robinson, D-Jax, Mecole Hardman. You guys think I could tread water with this until Adam's is back 100%, or worth a bid for Allison if there's nothing more pressing I need to make a move for?

The chart on that site seems a little odd. So if it's grade 2 it's about on avg 1 week and grade 3 would be about 8 weeks? Has to be lots of room in between there. I'd be surprised if he only misses 1-2 weeks, but doubt he misses 8. My guess is he misses 3 weeks and comes back for the Chiefs game. If it's bad, could see him missing 6 and holding him out until the Bye.

Packers WR Davante Adams had his MRI today on his toe injury, and sources say it’s not believed to be serious. The team will be careful with their star pass-catcher. But if he misses time, it may not be much.

Definitely. 10 days to get it right, maybe they'll play it safe and rest him next week too. I could live with that.

Nobody in their right mind will give up Adams for Bell in dynasty.
maybe you’ll find a sucker though.
Checking in reports and everything still seems to be "not serious" though LaFleur said yesterday "As far as long term, it's tough to say right now." Overall everyone seems to be insisting he won't miss much time, but no report on the grade of the injury. Seems like something that may play out week to week?

Turf toe is always ‘week to week’ and the player always looks ‘ok’ to outside observers.

Yup. I agree. The explosion won't be there but maybe hope on a lot of jump ball TDs *crossingfingersThis will more than likely affect his play all year. Even when he’s in the line-up it’s unlikely he’ll be his same dynamic self. This type of injury completely derailed one of Eddie George’s seasons, for those old enough to remember

I don’t know the answer to that, but I’d suggest looking at past history. A bad MRI is bad of course but I’m not sure a negative MRI is automatically ‘good’.

Past history is 2 days to career ender. But idk what each individual MRI was for those. I'm cautiously optimistic though, going to guess he misses one game.

Didn't Julio have career numbers the year he came back from it? You just don't know sadly... and you really can't bench him if he's playing on Sundays.

Probably irrelevant, as I obviously was nowhere near the athlete Adams is, nor did I have an NFL level training staff, but when I played D-II TE in the mid-2000's, I got turf toe my senior year, I missed 2 games, because I could barely get a shoe to fit right, and the pain when you bend your toes is crazy, and hard to control, because you don't totally control your toe movement. I came back after 2 weeks, and could basically only block, I could run just fine straight, but cutting was horrible, and was probably at half speed, and it never got better, until after the season, and still 15 years later has some occasional discomfort.
Hopefully for Adams, he'll heal faster/better, but in my opinion, I'd probably rank him around WR10 when he comes back, whenever that is, which I would guess will be no earlier than week 7.
Right. It does seem like it often plays out this way from previous cases, but I honestly don't have anything but anecdotal examples in mind.

Get well soon Davante

....... anyone here anything about this week? I could maybe live without him this week 6, but week 7 I really could use him

Nope and with a MNF game, those that want to start him better have another option. Luckily (if you could even say that) I have MVS and will play Dede over him so I can have the option of MVS/Adams.

I guess 1 pt is better than 0, but no way I can play MVS again.
Maybe if I owned just him and Adams was playing, but that WR corps is complete garbage w/o Adams on the field.

Not worth the risk on a Monday. I'll opt for Gallup this week.

in a sneaker (no boot - today, or ever), no limp, & a smile on his face at practice (while he watched) ....... MIGHT not be this week - but he will be playing sooner rather than later.

DAVANTE ADAMSWR, GREEN BAY PACKERS
According to ESPN Packers reporter Rob Demovsky, Davonte Adams (toe) is "not optimistic" about his availability for Monday's Week 6 game against the Lions.
It's been two weeks since Adams was first diagnosed with turf toe (he suffered the injury in a Thursday night loss to Philadelphia), though he's only made minimal progress in his recovery. "It doesn't feel how I want it to feel at the moment," Adams admitted after sitting out Thursday's practice. In all likelihood, the star wideout will be a spectator when the Packers host Detroit on Monday Night Football. With Adams headed for another absence, look for Green Bay to run its offense through Aaron Jones, who exploded for four touchdowns on a career-high 182 yards (107 rushing, 75 receiving) in last week's win over Dallas.

Just get healthy. 2 weeks off is nothing compared to what it could have been.

Schefter now reporting there's no timetable for his return. Davante calls this a "major injury." We'll, that's just great. Fwiw, maybe he misses one more game past this week. Anything more than that and it's AJ Green all over again.
