Rodgers to play through torn calf

Packers superstar QB Aaron Rodgers, previously understood to have a strained left calf, also has what has been termed a "slight" muscle tear. The news does not affect his status for Sunday's game vs. Dallas -- Rodgers has made quite clear that he will play no matter what -- but various sources are speculating that he will not have anything like his usual mobility. Add to the injury the fact that the temperature at kickoff should be well below freezing, and this has the makings of a truly miserable day for Rodgers -- not that Tony Romo and his gimpy back will be much more comfortable.
