GREEN BAY, Wis. \u2013 The Green Bay Packers are so healthy following their bye week that tight end Tucker Kraft got a new jersey.<\/p>\n

All 52 players on the Packers\u2019 active roster practiced on Wednesday, as did running back MarShawn Lloyd, who figures to take the vacant 53rd spot.<\/p>\n

The Packers weren\u2019t particularly banged up entering their bye, though they were down their veteran center, Josh Myers (wrist), as well as two starting defensive backs, cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) and safety Evan Williams (hamstring), for their loss to the Detroit Lions on Nov. 3.<\/p>\n

They all practiced on Wednesday, though, as the Packers get ready for Sunday\u2019s game at the Chicago Bears.<\/p>\n

When he sat at his locker a few days before the Week 9 loss to the Lions, Myers put on his socks and shoes without any help from his injured left hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, definitely better,\u201d Myers said on Monday. \u201cReally hoping this is a short-term deal but definitely feeling better.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe back and forth of it\u2019s been super-frustrating, especially at that point,\u201d he added. \u201cBut it\u2019s a lot better now. That rest gave it some time to get the swelling down a bit, and it does feel better. So, it\u2019s just going to be a matter of if I can still throw it hard and do all the things I need to do. I just kind of need to feel it out this week.\u201d<\/p>\n

The presence of Alexander and Williams would be important against the Bears, who have struggled on offense during their three game-losing streak but have a new offensive coordinator and a bunch of weapons in the passing game.<\/p>\n

Lloyd\u2019s injury-plagued rookie season has included lengthy stints on the sideline due to hip, hamstring and ankle injuries.<\/p>\n

Lloyd injured his hamstring during the preseason opener. In his regular-season debut against the Colts in Week 2, he carried six times for 15 yards and caught one pass for 3 yards before sustaining an ankle injury that sent him to injured reserve.<\/p>\n

The Packers designated him for return on Monday. If he has a strong week of practice, he could be activated to the 53-man roster on Saturday and play against the Bears on Sunday.<\/p>\n

What would he add to a crowded backfield?<\/p>\n

\u201cThat speed you can\u2019t teach,\u201d running back Josh Jacobs said on Monday. \u201cYou cannot teach that speed. The way that he goes in and out of his cuts, the way that he\u2019s electric. That\u2019s the only way I can explain it. I\u2019m excited to see him play. He\u2019s going to be a good back.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Kraft, he had been donning a noncontact red jersey \u2013 the jerseys worn by the quarterbacks \u2013 since late September due to a shoulder injury. On Wednesday, he was back in the customary white worn by the rest of the offense.<\/p>\n

The bye came at a good time for the Packers to get fresh and healthy for what they hope is an extended playoff run.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel really good right now,\u201d receiver Jayden Reed said. \u201cI felt pretty good last game, too, but before that I was pretty beat up. That\u2019s why we had a bye week, and hopefully everybody\u2019s feeling much better so we can go out there and fly around, play the best ball we can play.\u201d<\/p>\n

The only player on the entire roster who did not practice was tight end Luke Musgrave. He remains on injured reserve following ankle surgery but is back in Green Bay. He rode a stationary bike at the start of practice.<\/p>\n
