Packers QB Aaron Rodgers suffered a collarbone injury in Green Bay's loss to the Bears on Monday night. Rodgers was forced to leave the game early and did not return to action.
It appears the injury could cause Rodgers to miss time.
More definitive scans today but initial tests showed small fracture in Aaron Rodgers' collarbone that could sideline him about three weeks.

But Packers do not want to make any determination until Aaron Rodgers undergoes more testing today.

ESPN Insider Ed Werder is reporting that Rodgers' injury "doesn't look good".
Rodgers missing time is obviously a huge deal. He's a great player and without him the Packers will likely start veteran backup QB Seneca Wallace in his place. Wallace is 6-15 as a starter and hasn't won a game since 10/3/10 when he was with the Browns.
The Eagles may be catching a very fortunate situation here. It doesn't seem like Rodgers will be back in time for the Eagles-Packers game in Green Bay on this upcoming Sunday.
