GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers apparently will have to make their entire postseason run without two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jaire Alexander. Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Alexander is undergoing surgery to repair the knee injury that has kept the 2018 first-round pick from playing for most of the past two months. Alexander's absence creates a major hurdle for the Packers in their bid to make a Super Bowl run as a wild card.
