Patriots Vs. Packers: NFL Week 15 Wednesday Injury Report

Fans of the Green Bay Packers are anxiously awaiting the weekend to find out whether or not Aaron Rodgers will be cleared to play for Sunday night's game against the New England Patriots. Rodgers suffered his second major career concussion during last week's win over the Detroit Lions. And though one would probably bet on Rodgers playing in such a big spot, you'd also hope that he and the Packers' training staff are sufficiently precautionary with their determination.

As for the Patriots, well, they've been so remarkably dominant in recent weeks that it's easy to forget just how banged up they really are. The most recent and significant injury was suffered by rookie CB Devin McCourty (rib). The rookie had been playing exceptionally well recently, so it will be interesting if he's able to go Sunday night, and if so, whether he'll be noticeably limited while trying to stop a potent Packers' aerial attack.

And, oh yeah, Tom Brady missed the Patriots' outdoor practice on Wednesday as he nurses an injured right shoulder. It's not like Brady will be sitting out under any circumstances, but it will be interesting to monitor that shoulder moving forward as the Patriots try to wrap up the top seed in the AFC playoffs.

Here's the official Wednesday injury report submitted by both the Patriots and the Packers.
