Pickett is not in attendance at Packers training camp practice. No injuries had been reported for Pickett's absence, and Pete Dougherty of the Green Bay Press-Gazette noted that he had spoken to Pickett yesterday and that he seemed fine.
A reader responded to Dougherty mentioning something about possible carbon monoxide and that a broadcast report said Pickett "should b fine."

Shortly after news broke on social media, Pickett tweeted out the following...
Thanks for all the prayers, God is good!! My baby is fine. Still at the hospital should be leaving soon!

Ryan and his family are ok. Scary situation for the big man. Here's to a speedy recovery to the Picket family.

Speedy recovery to all. Makes sprained ankles seem obscure as opposed to family members. CO poisoning can take a day or two to "get outta the woods".
