Short-handed at outside linebacker, the Green Bay Packers are turning to an untested rookie for their game Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. Coach Mike McCarthy said Friday that Brad Jones would make his first NFL start. “This is a big opportunity for him,†McCarthy said. “He’s had a good week’s work, and I’m sure he’s up to the challenge. I like what I’ve seen.†Jones, a seventh-round draft pick, will fill the void at left outside linebacker against the Cowboys’ high-powered offense. Source: Associated Press
If you think it can't get worse anymore..... lol at McCarthy. What will be the big opportunity for an unproven rookie, playing in a hecked up D against the Cowboys?
