Barbre may alternate with Tauscher

Allen Barbre, rumored to be heading to backup status for this week's Green Bay Packers game with Tampa Bay, may alternate with others on the offensive line, according to media sources:

Packers coach Mike McCarthy might be toying with the idea of playing Mark Tauscher and Chad Clifton but rotating in youngsters Allen Barbre and T.J. Lang for the thirtysomething veteran tackles during Sunday’s game at Tampa Bay, based on the coach’s cryptic comments following Friday’s practice.

Barbre is a former standout at Missouri Southern State University and East Newton High School.
