J.C. Tretter's first NFL season has been reduced to team meetings, shuttle rides and hotel delivery after getting his cleats stuck in the ground and breaking an ankle during a fumble recovery drill.

I think Joe will slap some duct tape on it and be an All Pro this year. 🙂

“I could do that drill a million more times and it never would happen,” Tretter said. “It’s the game of football. Some fluky things happen, you just have to roll with it. You have to stay positive and keep moving and moving forward.”

Thankfully Tretter realizes there was no one to fault.

Hopefully The Packers can designate Tretter as the one guy who can come of IR.

At this point I don't know of anyone else who is more valuable.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Key word being "at this point." Save that designation for someone more important. The Packers can get by without Tretter this season. Let him completely heal up, learn, and come back 100% next training camp.
