Packers WR Jennings out Sunday night

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings returned to practice from an abdomen injury last week, but will not play Sunday night against the New York Giants.

The news was first reported by Jay Glazer of Fox Sports and the NFL Network.

Jennings has not played since Sept. 30 after having surgery for an abdominal muscle tear.

He appeared ready to return last week.

"Me personally, I don't feel I'm a long shot," Jennings said via NFL.com Wednesday. "Playing it safe, I think (the medical staff) could say 'long shot.' I feel great, the body feels great. This is my first day going out there and actually getting on the ground, running some routes, catching some balls, getting my wind underneath me. Just seeing how it feels again to be part of the group, part of the guys."
