Coach Jim Schwartz said Monday he wouldn't rule out Stafford playing against the Packers, even if he wasn't a full participant in practice Wednesday. He plans to keep Stafford's status up in the air until Sunday. "I think the decision is how well he can move when it comes to Sunday and the ability to do some work during the week," Schwartz said. "Last week, we had a situation where he wasn't doing anything during the week and would have been limited on Sunday, so therefore it was an easy decision. I don't want to speculate on what may happen this week, but you could have two different scenarios. You could have a scenario where he doesn't get any work and then Sunday he can move around great and he's fine. You have another scenario where maybe he gets work this week and is a little bit limited. I don't think it necessarily has to be 100 percent, but he has to be able to move, has to be able to escape trouble and be able to protect himself." Source: WDFN.com | | |
