Aaron Rodgers remains sidelined
— -- GREEN BAY, Wis. – For the first time since he broke his collarbone on Nov. 4, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers felt he was ready to play.
That was not enough to convince coach Mike McCarthy and team doctors to let him return on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.
Rodgers did not undergo a scan of his collarbone, and McCarthy ruled out Rodgers for the game after meeting with team physician Dr. Pat McKenzie on Friday morning.
"Frankly, it's been a difficult morning going through the conversation with Aaron and Dr. McKenzie," McCarthy said after Friday's practice. "He feels like he's ready to play. He's had a good week of preparation.
"He's very disappointed; he's frustrated. But speaking with Dr. McKenzie, this is the right decision."
