Injury update: Rodgers' shoulder separated?

The initial diagnosis of Aaron Rodgers' injury is a bruised throwing shoulder, coach Mike McCarthy said after today's game.

The Packers' starting quarterback no doubt will be examined further upon the team's return to Green Bay this evening. UPDATE: At various points in his postgame press conference, Rodgers said he thought the shoulder might be separated or dislocated, but wasn't sure. Again, tests will occur tonight or Monday morning.

Rodgers missed one series in the second half, a three-and-out after which Tampa Bay drove for the winning field goal, then returned briefly before leaving for good. He finished 14-for-27 for 165 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions.

McCarthy did not immediately provide additional information on the other players who left today's game, including safeties Nick Collins and Aaron Rouse and defensive lineman Cullen Jenkins.

UPDATE: LB A.J. Hawk told Rob Demovsky that he hurt his groin.

UPDATE: Here's the additional injury info from McCarthy, per Mike Vandermause: Will Blackmon (quad), Jason Hunter (hamstring), Cullen Jenkins (shoulder), Nick Collins (reinjured lower back), Aaron Rouse (knee). Only Blackmon finished the game.

On whether Rodgers can play next week: "I have no idea. It’s too early to tell. He was able to go back in and play the one series, so I think tomorrow morning like a lot of cases will have a lot to do. Pat McKenzie has not had a chance to put him through a thorough examination."

On why Rodgers was held out for that one series: "I think they were still checking him out. It was clearly a medical decision to hold him that one series, then he was ok to go back in. then they felt it wasn’t ok for him to go back after the interception."
