That opens a roster spot... Daniel Muir anyone? http://profootballtalk.n...-with-ability-to-return/Quote:With a bunch of injuries creating uncertainty on the roster heading into their trip to Houston this weekend, the Packers made a move to open up a roster spot on Wednesday.
Coach Mike McCarthy announced that running back Cedric Benson has been placed on injured reserve as a result of the foot injury he picked up against the Colts in Week Five. Benson has been given the designation to return, so he will be eligible to start practicing with the team in six weeks and could play again in eight weeks if his foot has healed up enough to allow it. That’s about the same amount of time it is believed Benson will need to heal up so the move doesn’t have much downside for the Packers.

I would bring him in too. Don't know why we didn't keep him over some guys like Sean Richardson or Lattimore or dare I say a 6th Reciever?? Not knocking any players, but he would of and can be a great backup to Raji. Ecspecially for Raji's injury woes.

I don't see them going outside the practice squad. This also could be a move that would open a spot for Quarless, Sherrod or Zombo to come back also. |
The world needs ditch diggers to Danny!!!  |

Honestly our TE and LB cores are fine, and idk how much Sherrod would be an improvement other than depth plus he is coming off a broken leg. Lawrence Guy could help us, but I fear he'll just be buried on the depth chart... Lets see if  can find another Erik Walden.

Quick call up Goodell and get Johnny Jolly reinstated. |

Quick call up Goodell and get Johnny Jolly reinstated. I like the thought, but it'd be awhile before he was ready. |

Quick call up Goodell and get Johnny Jolly reinstated. Exactly.. especially with a run first team up next. |
