Notes: Green is questionable

Green Bay - The status of Green Bay running back Ahman Green for the game Monday night against Philadelphia has been downgraded now that he has two injured hamstrings.
This week, Green hurt the other hamstring in practice Friday. That second hamstring injury was bad enough to keep Green out of practice Saturday and get him downgraded from probable to questionable for the game.
"I'm hopeful that he's going to play, just based on the information we have," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said after practice.
McCarthy also said that Daryn Colledge, not Jason Spitz, will start at left guard, and Tony Moll will start at right guard.
Twelve-year veteran fullback William Henderson also will not start. Instead, that duty goes to Brandon Miree. The Packers will have to look at their special-teams needs to see if Henderson will even be activated for the Eagles game.
If Green can not play at all, or is limited in the number of carries, McCarthy said he was leaning toward playing second-year pro Vernand Morency more on first and second downs and using Noah Herron in third-down situations.
McCarthy said Morency is picking up the offense well. He joined the Packers after a Sept. 13 trade with Houston for Samkon Gado and got his first three carries as a Packer last week in Detroit.
"I feel pretty good" with the offense, Morency said.
