Green Bay, WI -- (Sports Network) - Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy said in his press conference on Monday that quarterback Aaron Rodgers will not participate in practice until Thursday at the earliest.

"I'm not going to practice him Wednesday, and we're going to stay in the rehab," McCarthy said. "Then we're looking at potentially limited Thursday was the conversation we had with the doctors, and we'll take it from there."

Rodgers, who has a sprained right shoulder, was a game-time decision in Sunday's contest against the Atlanta Falcons, but he did start and finished the contest 25-of-37 for 313 yards and three touchdowns along with a late interception in the 27-24 defeat.

"I thought he had an excellent performance with everything he was dealing with," McCarthy said. "The biggest negative was the interception."

Rodgers hurt the shoulder in a 30-21 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 28.

A former first-round pick, the 24-year-old has passed for 1,274 yards with nine touchdowns and four interceptions in five games this season, his first as a starter since replacing Brett Favre, who was traded to the New York Jets.
