GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The plan for Aaron Rodgers' recovery -- and possible chance to return this season -- was being finalized on Friday, one day after the Green Bay Packers quarterback underwent surgery to repair his broken collarbone.
"I think it will be clear when the discussion is completed, and we'll make that decision," McCarthy said Friday. "That's what the conversations are for today."
That would indicate that the Packers are strongly considering placing Rodgers on injured reserve. Even if they go that route, they still could bring him back after eight weeks.
