Packers’ T.J. Lang urges fellow NFLers to take cabs

Found July 23, 2012 on Helmet2Helmet: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: T.J. Lang
TEAMS: Green Bay Packers
Considering the drunk driving epidemic that has taken a hold of the NFL this offseason — and subsequently cost one player his job — it’s time for somebody to step up and deliver a message. The time has come, and that somebody is T.J. Lang. On Sunday, the Packers guard tweeted out the following to his fellow NFL players, emphasizing the need for a cab should they go out drinking. Dear co-workers.. These are pretty cheap.. Try one out twitter.com/TJLang70/statu… — TJ Lang (@TJLang70) July 22, 2012 It’s definitely a valid point.

How Long Does it Take A Running Back to Recover From An ACL Injury?

Via AllGreenBayPackers.com  |  July 25, 2012
Surprisingly, one of the biggest concerns from Packers fans is depth at running back (personally I would have put safety as my top concern).  Fans are worried that the combination of James Starks, Alex Green and Brandon Saine may not be enough to take pressure off Aaron Rodgers and the passing game.  One thing that I think fans have missed is that Alex Green isn’t exactly ready...
