CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Green Bay Packers will get top cornerback Jaire Alexander and running back AJ Dillon back for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers, but will be without two of their top wide receivers. Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) are inactive. Alexander has missed the past six games for the Packers with a shoulder injury, but should provide some needed help for a Green Bay (6-8) team that is desperate for a win. Dillon returns after missing last week's game with a thumb injury.
