The Packers have agreed to terms with free-agent wide receiver James Jones on a three-year deal, according to a source. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that both quarterback Aaron Rodgers and wide receiver Donald Driver urged Green Bay to retain Jones.

Packers cornerback Brandon Underwood pleaded not guilty to a count of disorderly conduct Friday after being charged in an incident with his wife the night the team got their Super Bowl rings in June. Authorities allege Underwood, 25, ripped a necklace off his wife, Brandie, and pushed her to the ground at their home following the June 16 ring ceremony. Brandie Underwood has said the incident has been blown out of proportion and that she's never been afraid of her husband even though she filed for divorce in May.

A high-ranking Packers official denies reports that the team has notified players to report Saturday in the event the NFL lockout ends. The team official said the organization internally has made plans that include contacting players for travel arrangements, because the majority of its players do not reside in the immediate Green Bay area. However, the official was emphatic that players have not been notified, formally or informally, to report to team headquarters Saturday.

Packers wide receiver James Jones, who had 50 catches for 679 yards and five touchdowns in 2010, may be unlikely to return to the Super Bowl champions. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel put the chances that Green Bay will re-sign Jones at "20 percent," citing his inconsistent performance.

Ryan Grant, injured in Week One of Green Bay's eventual Super Bowl season, believes he'll start for the Packers this fall. "I would think so. I don't know," Grant said when asked if he is the team's starter. "From what I've heard, that's the conversation that was told to me. ... I was told that by [former running backs coach Edgar Bennett], initially. Jerry [Fontenot, the new position coach] didn't tell me that anything changed. "Jerry told me that as of right now I'm still the leader of the backfield and the expectations won't change. ... I do believe there will be competition, which is fine. I'm all for that." When asked to clarify if he wants the starting job, Grant complied. "Of course. Why would you not want to? Who doesn't want that? But I do want to win, more importantly. And I do feel like what I bring to the table and what I do on the field is very direct to me. ... I'm looking forward to whatever happens regarding all that and I'm just going to take care of what I can." He added that he'd be open to a backup role if it was best for the team.
