GREEN BAY Brett Favre Color Rush Jersey , Wis. — Cleared from the concussion protocol, receiver Randall Cobb expects to play in the Green Bay Packers’ season finale.Packers CoveragePhotos of the Week: 7/21/19 – 7/27/19Packers rookie Gary’s biggest critic is himselfTop Tweets: Former Badger TJ Watt has impressive four-year transformationPHOTOS: 2019 Green Bay Packers training campPackers’ Rodgers, LaFleur ironing out offense, building chemistryPlayers to watch at Green Bay Packers 2019 training campLaFleur: Offense still a work in progress as Packers open campPackers release defensive tackle Mike DanielsGreen Bay Packers 2019 training camp primerPackers’ Rodgers not ranked as a top-5 quarterback in Madden 20It could be his final game with the team.“I’m human so I can’t say that it hasn’t crossed my mind,” Cobb said on Thursday.A second-round pick in 2011, Cobb had a big 2014 season with 91 catches for 1,287 yards and 12 touchdowns. That led to Cobb signing a four-year, $40 million contract in free agency.He’s never gotten close to matching that production, though, with a total of 16 touchdowns the past four seasons. He started this season with a bang, tallying nine catches for 142 yards, including the game-winning, 75-yard touchdown reception against Chicago in Week 1.However, Cobb has missed six games with a hamstring injury before sitting out last week with a concussion. He enters Sunday with just 37 catches for 356 yards and two touchdowns.With that, free agency will beckon once more for the 28-year-old Cobb https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Paul-Hornung-Jersey , who ranks sixth in franchise history with 469 receptions.“It’s not at the forefront of my thoughts,” he said. “I would say right now I’m just taking it all in, just enjoying the moments like I always do. The crazy thing about this game is every time we take that field, it could be the last time that we play. I’ve never taken for granted. Every time I walk through the tunnel — even when I’m taking somebody on a tour like my family or friends — I cherish that moment.”Cobb has one key supporter in quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Packers haven’t had someone who can replace Cobb in the slot, and the offense has suffered as a consequence.When Cobb has been out of the lineup, the Packers have had to lean heavily on rookie receivers Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Equanimeous St. Brown. Without the rapport that Rodgers shares with Cobb, they’ve produced sporadically.“We’ve always enjoyed going to war with each other,” Cobb said of Rodgers. “He’s my quarterback, you know? It’s been a lot of fun. It means a lot to me.”Cobb and linebacker Clay Matthews will be the team’s two high-profile free agents. A first-round pick in 2009, Matthews has spent all 10 seasons with the Packers.“I think everybody wants to be with one team the entirety of their career, Matthews said. “If that’s what it’s in the cards, fantastic. If not, I’ll deal with that once it presents itself.”Matthews has 83½ sacks, the team’s most since the NFL made sacks an official stat in 1982. However, as is the case with Cobb Bart Starr Jersey , he’ll enter free agency on a down note with a career-low 3½ sacks this season.“I think I’ve done a real good job of just focusing on this season and nothing beyond,” Matthews said. “I think I learned that at a younger age. … Obviously, I’m not oblivious to the fact that I could be somewhere else next year, but it’s not like I’ll be an emotional wreck on Sunday.”Cobb is just happy to be finishing after suffering a concussion late in the Week 15 game at Chicago. He said he doesn’t remember the final three snaps he played and has about 10 minutes of “amnesia.”He missed last week’s win at the Jets and returned to practice on Thursday. He plans to play against the Lions.“I’ve had a punctured lung, I’ve had a broken leg, and I’ve come back and played and not thought about those things,” he said. “I would consider this to be another thing that whenever I take the field, I’m worried about that moment. I’m not worried about what’s happened in the past, which is hard to do.”NOTES: Both Cobb and Matthews (back) were limited in their returns to practice. … LT David Bakhtiari (hip) was also limited in returning to practice. … CB Jaire Alexander (groin) and WR Davante Adams (knee) missed a second day of practice, though Adams has said that he plans to play on Sunday. The refusal of Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers to say whether he has spoken to former coach Mike McCarthy since the release of last week’s bombshell from Tyler Dunne of BleacherReport.com speaks volumes. Logic and common sense suggest that Rodgers hasn’t spoken to McCarthy at all, and that Rodgers presumably realizes admitting this would tend to make the allegations regarding a chronically fractured relationship between the two men more credible.Along those same lines, the lingering silence of the Packers tends to make some or all of the report seem more credible. And, at some level, Rodgers has to be upset that the Packers haven’t shouted from the roof tops, “Fake news!”Here’s how I processed the situation during Wednesday’s #PFTPM. If someone reported that I had been feuding with my former boss at NBC for years and that the boss of my former boss had specifically told me Ray Nitschke Color Rush Jersey , when hiring a new boss, “Don’t be the problem,” and if I thought it all was a “smear attack” fueled by disgruntled former colleagues and and overly ambitious reporter and if I had taken great pains to say so on the record, I’d be upset if NBC said nothing at all about any aspect of the situation.When it comes to the reporting regarding the highest paid and most important employee of the Green Bay Packers, the fact that the Packers haven’t issued any type of denial has to bother Rodgers. The fact that CEO Mark Murphy hasn’t gone public to flatly deny that he told Rodgers “don’t be the problem” makes it worse.So here’s where we are, from the perspective of Rodgers and the Packers. Day one: A blistering report is published. Day two: PFT reports that the Packers privately deny the specific allegation that Murphy told Rodgers “don’t be the problem” and that only Rodgers (but not the team) is expected to publicly deny it. Days three and four: Nothing. Day five: Rodgers launches a full-blown assault on the story, attacking former teammates Jermichael Finley and Greg Jennings for using false claims about Rodgers to stay relevant and claiming that Dunne embraced false allegations to advance his career. Day six: Nothing. Day seven: Rodgers refuses to say whether he has spoken to McCarthy in the week since the story was published, and receiver Davante Adams contends that multiple players who logically would have been contacted to comment on the situation as part of the exhaustive reporting weren’t. (Even if they quite possibly were.)Looking at the situation broadly and comprehensively, the silence of the Packers becomes, from Rodgers’ perspective, curious at best and troubling at worst. While it’s safe to assume that the organization simply hopes to look toward the future, Rodgers remains stuck in the quicksand of the past — and the Packers are standing nearby with a rope, whistling.
