A Packers source tells ESPN's Ed Werder that Aaron Rodgers' injury "doesn't look good."
The swelling in Rodgers' non-throwing shoulder/collarbone prevented an exact diagnosis Monday night. He's headed for a Tuesday MRI. Werder asked his source if Rodgers could miss the rest of the regular season, and got a "possibly, but they need to see more" response. Fantasy owners need to be making other Week 10 plans as they prepare to put in waiver claims Tuesday. Even in a best-case scenario, it doesn't sound like Rodgers will be playing against the Eagles.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Aaron Rodgers (collarbone) could be sidelined about three weeks.
Initial tests showed a small fracture in Rodgers' collarbone. Per Schefter, the Packers don't want to make any official determination until their quarterback undergoes even more testing Tuesday. But if this three-week timetable proves accurate, Rodgers would target the Week 13 Thanksgiving game against the Lions for his return. It's a blessing for fantasy owners, as he'd be back for the fantasy playoffs. The Packers sound like they'll stick with Seneca Wallace as their interim starter despite his woeful Monday Night relief performance. They essentially chose Wallace over old friend Matt Flynn earlier this season. Scott Tolzien is on the Packers' practice squad.
Schefty also told us that Cobb could be back 2 weeks after his injury and the next day he was IR'd.
