Andrew Quarless Has Sprained MCL

Andrew Quarless

Andrew Quarless made his first appearance for the Green Bay Packers on Monday night, at least in terms of catching the football. God’s Gifts hauled in his first two receptions of the season and then promptly got injured.

Now he can spend the next 4-6 weeks pretending to be a plant.

Another #Packers injury on offense: TE Andrew Quarless suffered a sprained MCL in his left knee, source said. He's out 4-6 weeks.

With Quarless sidelined, that likely means a larger role for starter Richard Rodgers. It also means rookie Kennard Backman could start seeing some time on offense.

If the Packers want to make a move, they also have Justin Perillo on the practice squad. Perillo is a better blocker than Backman (and possibly even Rodgers, for that matter) and may actually be of more immediate use to the Packers.

But before we go shaking up the roster, let’s consider a few things.

First, Letroy Guion returns from his suspension this week, so clearing a roster spot for both Guion and Perillo could be problematic. That is, unless the Packers decide to shelve Quarless for the year by putting him on injured reserve.

It isn’t as if he’s setting the world on fire statistically, so that option has to be considered.

Then there’s the matter of that suspension we’ve all been waiting for.

Think back to Fourth of July weekend. Quarless was caught brandishing a handgun during an argument in Miami. The NFL doesn’t typically think too highly of such behavior, but they’ve been dragging their feet on handing out any sort of suspension.

If they handed that to Quarless now, that would make it easy on the Packers. While on suspension, Quarless wouldn’t count against the active roster.

Lastly, the Packers aren’t getting any production from their tight ends anyway. So who really cares?

Rodgers, Quarless and Backman have combined for 10 receptions, 79 yards and one touchdown.

The Packers could probably throw a tackling dummy out there at tight end and it wouldn’t make a difference.

    Maybe 2016 will be the year that Big Ted actually uses a top pick on a TE and/or an ILB….

    Nah. Richard Rodgers is fine. Use the pick on defense. Preferably on the defensive line. Remember that guion and raji are pending free agents and datone Jones will be in the final year of his contract next year. Also keep in mind that Perry and Neal are also in the final years of their contracts

    But I digress, let’s not worry about that petty stuff now. Concentrate on a world championship

    TT will draft TE for sure. Rest of guys have rap sheet or injury prone. Can sign them for reasonable price. Daniels is the guy who will be out of our price range. If they all stay healthy and play up to their potential we should win a superbowl then good problem to have. Like problem seattle is having.

      What money will he want/get?

    jtmax- I cant wait to see seattle in this next offseason. Russell Wilson’s contract kicks in. They are going to have to dump contracts.

    Rodgers has good hands and has made big plays when it counts (think playoff game against Dallas). It likely doesn’t matter since ARodgers obviously prefers to find jones and Cobb.

    We don’t need another TE because we have 2 fullbacks. I’d rather see more reps for the WR corps.

    They should sign Colt Lyerla. That would be the final piece to getting the packers to the superbowl.

      Quarless is never going to develop into a top asset. They should make a trade with Chicago and get Bennett. Maybe give them a draft pick or Tolzien.
