The Packers are sitting Aaron Rodgers and will have two quarterbacks available for their preseason opener Friday night, both undrafted rookies.
The Packers distributed a list of players not expected to suit up vs. the Browns, and both Rodgers and top backup Brett Hundley will not play. Hundley has been battling an ankle injury, while Packers coach Mike McCarthy thinks playing Rodgers isn’t worth the risk.
That leaves Joe Callahan as the expected starter vs. the Browns and Marquise Williams as the backup. Callahan played at Div. III Wesley College, while Williams played at North Carolina.
This would have been the situation had last Sunday’s Hall of Fame Game actually been played.
