If he's not out on injured reserve, he'll at least start on PUP. [via Twitter]

Bigby had actually passed the conditioning test but ankle got sore after and he was flunked on physical. [via Twitter]

There's a shot he's put for the year but surgery will determine that.

I hope Burnett can hold the job down, stay healthy and be a consistent force back there so we dont even have to worry about Bigby.

Atari Bigby will have ankle surgery on Friday
Posted by Mike Florio on August 5, 2010 12:14 PM ET
Packers safety Atari Bigby missed the Packers' entire offseason program as he resisted signing his restricted free agency tender. When he signed the tender last week and showed up, he was asked to take a conditioning test. While doing so, he injured an ankle that previously had been surgically repaired.

As it turns out, he'll be having surgery again. (As best we can tell, the looming surgery was first reported by Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.)

A league source tells us that, on Friday, Dr. Robert Anderson will perform an arthroscopic procedure on Bigby's ankle. Bigby is expected to miss a few weeks.

A couple of years ago, Bigby was emerging as one of the top young safeties in the game. Since then, injuries have prevented him from fulfilling his potential.

Clever. Hold out the entire offseason, sign a multi-million-dollar tender, get hurt your very first day back, sit out the season on injured reserve, and collect every penny. It's tantamount to fraud.

Not as scandalous as having several babies out of wedlock and sucking off the government teat. I guess if Bigby never did heal properly, he kind of got back at Uncle Ted for lowballing him. I moved on in the third round of the draft anyway. It wouldn' t be a bad idea to sign a veteran safety after the last cuts of training camp, or keep Bush around for another year. :icon_smile:

If it's not scandalous, please pay me over $3 million this year not to play. At times I experience severe ankle pain too. :D

Getting himself hurt on the conditioning test. Pussy.

At least he's cheaper pussy than Haynesworth. And that's how I like my poon tang, on the cheap.

The worst part is Anthony Smith isn't a free agent.

Hopefully Will Blackmon steps up and doesn't get hurt.

Bigby just got his severence package. Maybe we can trade one of our overpaid linebackers for a good safety.
