The Green Bay Packers do not plan to give quarterback Aaron Rodgers more time to rest his sprained toe and expect him to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday after he seemed pretty well after Friday’s practice.
Coach Mike McCarthy said Rodgers was able to do everything in practice Friday and didn’t have limited mobility. Last Sunday’s 38-26 loss to the Minnesota Vikings seemed not to impact the coach’s plan of making full use of Rodgers. Regardless of the fact that the No.12 quarterback has been coping with a sprain in his feet for the past few weeks, McCarthy just keeps the quarterback playing game after game. He may originally to use Rodgers as a replacing weapon after Brett Favre left the Green Bay, but losses proved that the No. 12 quarterback is far from catching the quarterback always wearing No.4 NFL jersey in every team he plays for.
The Packers also expect veteran tackles Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher to start Sunday’s game, and wide receiver Donald Driver is probable to return from his treatment for a neck injury.
