On the same day the Green Bay Packers lost safety Morgan Burnett for the season to a knee injury, theres growing concern about linebacker Brandon Chillars shoulder injury.
Chillar has undergone additional tests and his agent, Jim Ivler, said he expects to know the prognosis in a couple of days. Chillar was injured against the Bears a week ago and didnt play in Sundays win over the Lions. He has had a previous injury to the same shoulder when he was a member of the St. Louis Rams.
I hope it isnt season-ending, dont think it is, but Im not going to rule out that its not possible, Ivler said. By Wednesday, well probably have a better idea.
Ivler said the initial MRI was inconclusive.
It was a little bit hard to tell what was old scar tissue and what is the new injury, that sort of thing, Ivler said. Hes had some surgery on that shoulder before, back in 05 or 06.
