GREEN BAY, Wis., Nov. 21 (UPI) -- Green Bay backup quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been placed on injured reserve and replaced on the Packers' roster by Todd Bouman.
Rodgers, seeing rare playing time when Brett Favre was injured Sunday, was also hurt in the game. He broke his foot, an injury that will keep him out for the rest of the season. Favre is not believed to be seriously injured.
