Packers’ Rodgers says on radio show he has fractured left collarbone, doesn’t know timetable

GREEN BAY, Wis. – Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers says he has a fractured left collarbone and he doesn’t know how long he’ll be out.

Rodgers offered details of the injury on his weekly radio show on 540-AM ESPN on Tuesday. The 2011 NFL MVP got hurt after getting sacked by Shea McClellin on a third-down play during the Packers’ first series while he was scrambling outside the pocket. He hurt his left, non-throwing shoulder.

Rodgers called his injury “significant” and said he was in “some pain.”

Rodgers hasn’t missed a game due to injury since Dec. 19, 2010. Seneca Wallace finished 11 for 19 for 114 yards and an interception in the 27-20 loss.

The Packers host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.
