medical malpractice?
the packer curse
I forgot about Johnny Jolly who also had a neck injury at the end of last year
And they drafted a WR in 2005 named Terrence Murphy who got a neck injury in camp too
I don't get why EVERY YEAR A DAMN PACKER HAS TO END HIS CAREER TO A NECK INJURY

well you still got Lacy and Starks right?
Yup And DeJuan Harris who's returning from injury
Backfield was crowded anyway
Franklin may not have made the roster anyway

I don't even know anymore...
I really, really wanted him last year. I was so happy when we drafted him (consequently, I wasn't all that excited for the Lacy pick, so there's that ). This shyt sucks man. He seems to have a real positive outlook though (always has, even while struggling last year), so I think he'll pull out of this just fine.
What @FAH1223 said is right though: we have a log jam at the position (RB), so it's unlikely that this will have any impact on the field. Just sucks to see that young man's career end so soon.
Also, I'd like to point out that Schefter didn't "break" anything. McCarthy announced it at his presser after today's practice, then Franklin posted his "retirement tweet" on twitter.

He was by far my least favorite of the HBs on the depth chart and I doubt they would've kept all 4 but I hate to see him have to go out like this. Seems to be a bright kid tho. Hopin for the best for him.
