Rodgers a game-time decision for Packers
Posted: News | NFL.com Staff | Tags: Atlanta Falcons, Green Bay Packers
Packers QB Aaron Rodgers stayed on the sidelines on Thursday and was limited in practice on Friday. He suffered a right shoulder injury last week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s matchup with the Falcons.
The Packers will rehab Rodgers on Saturday and how the QB feels then will help determine if he’ll play. However, coach Mike McCarthy said the team will work Rodgers out before the game on Sunday and he’ll be a game-time decision.
If Rodgers is unable to go, rookie Matt Flynn will get his first career start.
“I’m preparing to go either way,” McCarthy said.
