GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -After watching Aaron Rodgers get roughed up for yet another afternoon, the Green Bay Packers could welcome back two veteran tackles to their offensive line this week.
Packers coach Mike McCarthy hinted strongly that Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher will start Sunday’s game at Tampa Bay.
Clifton hasn’t played a full game since the opener because of a nagging right ankle injury, and Tauscher re-signed with the team last month after spending most of the year rehabbing from a torn left anterior cruciate ligament last December.
The Packers have allowed a league-worst 31 sacks, including six in Sunday’s loss to Minnesota. To make matters worse, Rodgers is now nursing a sprain on one foot and a sprained toe on the other, but expects to play Sunday.
