Green Bay Packers rookie defensive back Will Blackmon could get his first playing action with the Green Bay Packers this Sunday when they face the Dolphins in Miami. Almost five months after undergoing foot surgery, Blackmon returned to the practice field late last week on a part time basis and is back fulltime this week. Blackmon had to sit out the first five games while still recovering. Blackmon has responded well to the physical activity and worked in a number of different areas on Monday, including on special teams as a punt returner. His playing time could greatly increase this week if starter Charles Woodson can't plan. Woodson missed practice yesterday with rib and ankle injuries. If Woodson can't play, Blackmon could find himself working in the teams nickel defensive package against the Dolphins.
