Think he might be back for opener.

Almost has to be procedure to clean up torn cartilage.

I bet he tore it last year and had hoped that rehab plus offseason would fix it delay it.

Maybe instead of trying to pamper them during training camp, work the living shit out of them instead! I remember the Lombardi Packers absolutely HATED his rigorous camps but I don't ever remember reading about these kinds of injuries during camp. (The internet wasn't invented back then!) These guys play a brutal sport and perhaps they need the physical/brutal training to get their bodies ready for the sport. Taking it "easy" on them sure as Hell isn't getting it done.

That was a different situation because training camp was brutal to get the players in shape. There was no offseason training program. Maybe the issue is the offseason training program. The one season recently where the Packers didn't have big injury problems was following the 2010 season where there was no offseason training program or OTA's because of the lockout.

Did I see correctly that Datone Jones was not at practice? Any explanation why?

Jones had an illness.

If I recall, in 2011 they lost Collins forever with the "freak" neck injury, Alex Green with a knee, Quarless with a knee, Sherrod with the leg, and Tramon Williams with that never healing shoulder problem. That's quite a hit to take for any team. I agree that the players now, for the most part, have that off season workout program but at least for the Packers, it's not cutting down on the injuries.
