New Packers OT Jared Veldheer tests positive for COVID (1 Viewer)

[St. Geezy]

Not exactly sure why the original thread was locked, where many of us thought it was bush league for Green Bay to be allowed to sign Veldheer after his original team got eliminated last week, but it sounds like it may not only be moot now. That said, it looks like the move may even backfire and cause some issues for the organization if he was around any other players or coaches...

Not wishing ill on the player at all, and I hope he recovers quickly and fully, but I believe this is what they call "karma."

Packers are now under the negative influence of da Gris-Gris.

So was this before or after he got into the building?

 

[BreesIsMyFather]

Did he complete a meet and greet with rodgers? Asking for a friend...

Aaron Rodgers is winless in his last four starts against the #1 total defense.

The Rams have the #1 total defense.

If the packers are desperate enough to sign a practice squad OT the week before a playoff game, that's not a good sign for the faith LaFleur has in their OL.

There is a very real chance the 2020 NFC Championship is a rematch of 2018.

And now the entire Packer organization has that Veldheer in the headlights look.

I just don’t think the Rams have enough offense to actually win it. If they get a couple of TD‘s on defense then they may have a chance.

*puts on tinfoil hat*
I honestly don’t think the NFL will allow the Rams to knock off the Packers, and ruin one of their main storylines of the season... Rodgers and the Packers are going to get the benefit of the vast majority of the calls to help them succeed.

Holy smokes.

The packers run defense is flawed, their best run defense has been Rodgers turning games into shootouts. They're not actually a stout unit. If the rams defense keeps Rodgers limited and in turn keeps their run game alive, I think they'll get the upset.

So how is the new guy there for two days, including at practice yesterday, but had no close contact to anyone? Yeah, right.

Not if they were following protocols.

One positive test doesn’t wipe out a position group for contact tracing unless protocols aren’t properly followed.

Well played.
