Can any of the medical staff on the board try to decipher the injury that Rodgers has?

Here is a quote with Rodgers vague description:

Injuring the calf in a second spot has been challenging for "the fact that the inside was real weak because that was the initial point of strain in the Tampa game, that the outside just kind of gave out on the scramble throw to Randall (Cobb)," said Rodgers.

So is it a muscle strain and a second muscle tear? Reading between the lines of some of the random quotes out there it seems like a fairly significant injury if they are not even going to attempt to practice him until Thursday. Just wondering if anyone might have more insight.

It's a strain and a contusion. He'll be ready to go on Sunday, but should avoid sprinting or quick push-offs from that leg.
Will probably have an injection pre-game, and a heat patch inside his sock. He could play on one leg in the gun, and make hay on quick passes.

We will need to find a pass rush from the DL without blitzing.

The way that muscle grabbed on him last Sunday, there's no way it's close to 100%. Obviously it has improved some since with rest. But he will be limited. How much? We won't really know until Sunday at 100 PM.
