Rodgers landed on his right shoulder after a tackle from Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr in the first quarter. He was forced out of the game and left on a cart.
A broken collarbone on his non-throwing arm kept Rodgers out of seven games in 2013. This time it’s on his right side, which is more concerning. Don’t be surprised if the two-time MVP is placed on injured reserve in the coming days, although a return this season hasn’t been ruled out.
In the moments following the tackle, Packers Nation held its breath. And then came the worst possible news.
