Tom Pellicero of NFL Media reports that Cobb is expected to be in the lineup for the first time since suffering an ankle injury in their Week 6 loss to the Jets.
Cobb has participated in the team's light practice assignments this week
and the team has an open roster spot, so there is no need for a related move to get him on the active roster.
The Packers will lose another wide receiver on Thursday night as Romeo Dubs is ruled out with an ankle injury.
Allen Lazard, Christian Watson, Sammy Watkins and Samori Torre are the other wideout options.
