It was also reported by Rob Demovsky of ESPN that House has been troubled by a shoulder injury all season and added that the veteran cornerback is scheduled to go under the knife to fix it.

House hasn’t been used much by the Packers over the first three weeks of the season, as he has only seen 29 defensive snaps on the season and 50 with the special teams.
The Packers, meanwhile, have already made a move to cover the spot on the 53-man roster by Davon House, as the team have reportedly agreed to sign cornerback Bashaud Breeland, per Demovsky.

House was a fourth-round pick by the Packers back in 2011 and spent his first four seasons in the NFL with Green Bay. He signed a four-year deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2015 but was released by the team in 2017, paving the way for his reunion with the Packers. He is currently on a one-year deal with Green Bay.
In 87 career NFL games, House has managed to collect seven interceptions, 3.0 sacks, and 184 tackles.
