Not a Jolly time of year for Packers: The Packers placed DL Johnny Jolly on injured reserve Tuesday with an injured shoulder. Jolly, a sixth-round draft pick in 2006, started seven of Green Bay's first 10 games. He was hurt in the Packers' victory over Carolina on Nov. 18. Last week, Coach Mike McCarthy said the results of an MRI on Jolly's shoulder "didn't look good," and he might have to sit out the remainder of this season. The coach didn't elaborate on the specifics of the injury. Jolly had 31 tackles, 14 solo, one sack and five pass deflections this season. (Updated 12/11/2007).

Fantasy Analysis
Guess the Packers won't have a Johnny Jolly Christmas. Sorry, we just couldn't resist. Anyway, feel free to cut this guy if you had some reason to own him in Fantasy. We can't imagine a type of format where you would. (Updated 12/11/2007).
DT Johnny Jolly, projected to be a starter at defensive tackle, was arrested in early July in Houston on felony drug possession charges. Jolly, 25, is scheduled to appear in a Houston court July 22 for an arraignment -- five days before players are to report for the start of Packers training camp. Jolly faces up to 20 years in prison and a $10,000 fine if convicted. He also could be disciplined by the NFL if found in violation of its personal conduct policy. Jolly was arrested in the early morning of July 8 outside a Houston nightclub for possessing at least 200 grams of prescription pain reliever codeine in a soda bottle that was found in his vehicle. He was freed the next day after posting $10,000 bail. The third-year player is expected to take over for Corey Williams, who was traded to Cleveland in the offseason, at the tackle spot alongside Ryan Pickett. Jolly is returning from a season-ending shoulder injury he sustained last November. 07/17/2008
