McCarthy Changes Tune: Door Open For Rodgers To Play | Total Packers
Obviously, Rodgers was cleared for the workout, today. McCarthy said earlier in the week he’d make a decision on Rodgers on Saturday. If the quarterback was unable to start testing today, he would have no chance of playing Sunday, based on McCarthy’s timetable.
The second step of the medical process — Rodgers shows no affects of the concussion the day after the cardiovascular workout — should ultimately determine whether he gets the green light.
One positive sign — Rodgers doesn’t appear to be showing any visible signs of the concussion.
“He looks good, would like to play. But once again, him and Dr. John Gray are working through this, and until he’s cleared medically, then it comes to me,” McCarthy said.
Matt Flynn, who’s taken all the practice reps with the No. 1 offense this week, would start if Rodgers can’t go.
