McCarthy Monday presser tweets

MM: Good practice, lot of energy, went over self-scouting items the staff identified. Pleased with the practice.

McCarthy calls Bulaga's hip injury "significant." Early diagnosis is no surgery. Final decision on surgery in four weeks.
@jasonjwilde
McCarthy says Bulaga was unhappy with doctors and wants to play, but this is the right decision for his long-term health.
@Packerpedia
MM: Barclay and Van Roten have looked good in a practice environment. They know the challenge that's in front of them if called upon.

McCarthy stops short of actually ruling Clay Matthews out for Sunday vs. Lions. Says will see how Wednesday hard rehab goes
From Ty Dunne blog:
On IR: We're at seven. We'll see how Derek (Sherrod) responds. We'll see how he responds
On back-ups at tackle: Depends on which tackle. Won't say who but we have a rotation in mind.
On So'oto: Good to see Vic. Good to have him back. Looks like he's in good shape. Any time one of your guys leave and has an opportunity to see him, it's good to have him back. Gives us depth at the outside linebacker position.
On Lang at tackle: With a full week of work, he'll be ready to go. T.J. won't keep us out of anything as far as how we game-plan. We have a lot of confidence in T.J.
On Perry wrist: Nick Perry's wrist is more severe than anticipated. Similar to Nick Barnett and A.J. Hawk. One required surgery during the season, one after. It continued to bother him so we went with the second opinion and this was the best route for him. Best in his long-term interest.
