GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Green Bay Packers did not get quarterback Aaron Rodgers back, but they could get as many as four other starters back for Thursday's game against the Detroit Lions.
Among them are three defensive players who have been out. Defensive tackle Johnny Jolly (groin), linebacker Nick Perry (foot/ankle) and cornerback Sam Shields (hamstring) all were listed as probable on Wednesday's injury report.
Perry has missed four of the last five games, while Shields missed the last two.
