King goes on I.R.

December 7, 2017 By Bill Scott

Kevin King

The Green Bay Packers decided to put rookie defensive back Kevin King on season-ending injured reserve on Wednesday.  King has been dealing with an injured shoulder all season and the Packers decided to shut him down instead of making the situation even worse.

The Packers activated Demetri Goodson from the physically unable to perform list, although he didn’t practice Wednesday because of a hamstring injury.  It’s not certain if he’ll play on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns.

The Packers were also without starting corner Davon House, who injured his left shoulder in the overtime win over Tampa Bay.  If House can’t play, the Packers would have to go with Damarious Randall and most likely Josh Hawkins as their starters against the Browns.

The Packers secondary will have to contend with Cleveland receiver Josh Gordon, who just returned to action last week after a three-year absence due to multiple violations of the substance abuse policy.

The Browns targeted Gordon 11 times last week.  he caught four passes for 85 yards.

The Packers are practicing in pads on Thursday.

Rodgers headed for surgery, McCarthy not happy with the hit that put him there

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will have surgery on his broken right collarbone “in the near future”.  That was the message from coach Mike McCarthy on Monday.

Minnesota Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that Anthony Barr’s hit on the Packers quarterback was “above board,” and said the Vikings are not a dirty football team.  Mike McCarthy has different thoughts on Barr’s hit.

“He’s out of the pocket, he’s clearly expecting to get hit,” McCarthy said.  “To pin him to the ground like that, I felt it was an illegal act.  To sit here and lose any of your players on something like that, it doesn’t feel very good. Yeah, I didn’t like the hit.  It was unnecessary, totally unnecessary, in my opinion.”

Rodgers was rolling out late in the first quarter.  After he released the ball, he was hit by Barr and the Vikings linebacker continued to drive him into the turf.

As of Monday afternoon, surgery had not been scheduled according to McCarthy.  But no decision on Rodgers roster spot will likely be made until after the surgery. [Read more…]

Biegel, Goodson start training camp on PUP list (AUDIO)

July 27, 2017 By Bill Scott

Vince Biegel

Former Wisconsin Badger outside linebacker Vince Biegel has started training camp with the Green Bay Packers on their Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list.  The rookie fourth round pick is joined by cornerback Demetri Godson.

Biegel underwent surgery on his right foot in May, shortly after the rookie mini-camp.  It’s the same injury that kept him out of 2-games with the Badgers last season.  He’s expected to miss a couple of weeks of training camp.

Goodson blew out his knee in a game last November and isn’t ready after undergoing surgery.

The Packers lost Julius Peppers and Datone Jones to free agency, leaving Clay Matthews and Nick Perry as the only two [Read more…]

Goodson sidelined by concussion

Quinten Rollins

Quinten Rollins

The Green Bay Packers are without another defensive back.  Demetri Goodson didn’t practice Wednesday and was listed on the injury report with a concussion.  Goodson joins Sam Shields, Damarious Randall, Quinten Rollins and Josh Hawkins, all who have lost time to injury.

Rollins returned to practice on Wednesday but was limited.  He’s already missed three games and there’s no guarantee he’ll be ready to play on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts.

If Goodson and Rollins can’t play, the Packers will be as thin as they’ve been all year.  It would leave the Packers with LaDarius Gunter, Micah Hyde and Josh Hawkins. [Read more…]

Packers release rookie QB Callahan today

Joe Callahan

The Green Bay Packers released rookie third string quarterback Joe Callahan today.

The Packers needed that roster spot and likely another for defensive end Mike Pennel and cornerback Demetri Goodson who both are coming off of four-game suspensions.

It’s possible the Packers could make a move to sign a running back as well.

Callahan made the Packers roster out of training camp and it’s likely he would come back to the teams practice squad if he isn’t claimed off of waivers.

Pennel and Goodson could both help the Packers against the Cowboys on Sunday.  Goodson told reporters that he was told he would be activated to the 53-man roster in time for Sunday’s game.

Green Bay Packers number-one corner Sam Shields has taken another step in the teams concussion protocol.

Shields isn’t expected to play against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, but he is taking part in meetings and making progress according to head coach Mike McCarthy.

Shields hasn’t practiced since week one.

Eddie Lacy / Starks

Green Bay Packers running back Eddie Lacy, who hurt his ankle early in the second half of Sunday’s game against the Giants, practiced on a limited basis.    There’s no word on whether not Lacy will be able to play on Sunday.

Lacy has rushed for 295 yards on 54 carries so far this season, averaging 5.5 yards per carry.

Fellow running back James Starks missed the practice due to an undisclosed injury.

Pennell & Goodson

Green Bay Packers cornerback Demetri Goodson has been suspended by the NFL without pay for violating the league policy on performance enhancing substances.

The NFL made the announcement on Friday.

Goodson becomes the second Packers player to be suspended this off-season to be suspended four games.  Defensive lineman Mike Pennel was suspended four games back in February for violating the league’s substance abuse policy.

Goodson played in 14 games last season, getting time on defense but even more so on special teams.  He finished fourth on the team in special teams tackles with nine. [Read more…]
