Enters offseason feeling good
Rodgers said his troublesome left knee is feeling good and shouldn't have any impact on his offseason routine, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers initially hurt his knee playing basketball in high school, eventually requiring an ACL reconstruction during college and a less complicated surgery after the 2015 campaign. It cropped up as an issue once again after his left leg was bent at an awkward angle Week 1 this past season, but he returned to the contest and ended up playing all 16 games. While it's quite possible the injury contributed to a disappointing season, the bigger issues in Green Bay were poor coaching, a terrible…read more

Clear of injuries
Rodgers (concussion) said at the NFL Honors event Saturday that he has no lingering injury concerns, Lindsey Pallares of WBAY Sports reports.
Analysis: Rodgers exited the season finale against the Lions after sustaining the concussion, tweaked his groin Week 15, and battled a bone bruise and MCL sprain for the bulk of the season, which resulted in him skipping last week's Pro Bowl. The veteran signal-caller avoided surgery on his knee and is now resuming his regular offseason workout routine. The 35-year-old totaled 4,442 yards and completed 62 percent of his passes with 25 touchdowns and only two interceptions this past season, and he'll look…read more

Pulls out of Pro Bowl
Rodgers (concussion) has been ruled out of the 2019 Pro Bowl.
Analysis: The report didn't cite a specific injury, but Rodgers suffered a deep bone bruise and sprained MCL in his left knee Week 1, tweaked his groin Week 15, and sustained a concussion Week 17. The decision to skip the NFL's All-Star game may have been spurred by all three, but he would have been subject to the concussion protocol in order to play Jan. 27. While he threw just two interceptions this season and surpassed 4,000 passing yards for the seventh time in 11 years as the Packers' starting…read more

Concussion confirmed
Rodgers has been diagnosed with a concussion and won't return to Sunday's game versus the Lions.
Analysis: The confirmation of a concussion marks the third of Rodgers' career, as noted by Jason Wilde of ESPN.com. As a result, Rodgers is in the protocol for head injuries and won't be eligible to speak with the media until he gains clearance from an independent neurologist, which clouds whether he may undergo knee surgery immediately after the season, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. No matter how the upcoming months go for Rodgers, he'll end his 11th year as the starting quarterback in Green…read more

Being evaluated for concussion
Rodgers left Sunday's game against the Lions to be evaluated for a concussion.
Analysis: If Rodgers is diagnosed with a concussion, it would be a fitting end to what has been a lost season in Green Bay. Fortunately for the quarterback, there won't be any meaningful game action for many months, so he would have plenty of time to recover. DeShone Kizer will fill in at QB for as long as Rodgers is sidelined.

Beats Jets with his legs
Rodgers (groin/knee) completed 37 of 55 passes for 442 yards and two touchdowns while adding 32 yards and two touchdowns on five carries and running in a two-point conversion in Sunday's 44-38 overtime win over the Jets.
Analysis: Given how effective he was with his legs, it's safe to say Rodgers wasn't at all limited by the groin injury he picked up last week. The veteran quarterback's pair of passing touchdowns were a 49-yarder to Jake Kumerow and a 16-yarder to Davante Adams, the latter of which won the game in overtime. That game-winning touchdown was set up by a pair of one-yard Rodgers rushing scores in the fourth quarter. Owners who stuck with Rodgers through this down season by his lofty standards were handsomely…read more

Expects to play after full practice
Rodgers (groin/knee) expects to play in Sunday's road game against the Jets, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "I want to be out there with the guys, and I look forward to being out there," Rodgers said Wednesday.
Analysis: After the Week 15 loss at Chicago, Rodgers opened a can of worms by admitting he tweaked his groin, which he continued to play through while stretching out a number of times after halftime. Interim coach Joe Philbin commented on the situation Monday, telling Demovsky that the Packers had no intention of shutting down Rodgers for the season, even with the playoffs not a possibility. Per Michael Cohen of The Athletic, Rodgers opened Week 16 with a full practice session Wednesday, ending any…read more

Practicing Wednesday
Rodgers (groin) took the initial reps during the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers' Week 16 availability against the Jets is in question due to a groin injury suffered in Sunday's 24-17 loss in Chicago. If he has his way, Rodgers expects to continue leading the Packers offense for the final two games of the season, despite having no chance at a postseason appearance. That said, interim coach Joe Philbin told Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette earlier Wednesday the team will evaluate Rodgers all week before coming to a decision.

Week 16 status still undecided
Interim coach Joe Philbin relayed that he's "hopeful" Rodgers (groin) will practice Wednesday and added that the Packers would take the full week to decide if the quarterback will play Sunday against the Jets, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Rodgers tweaked his groin late in the first half of the Week 15 loss to the Bears, but ultimately stayed in the contest and finished with 25 completions on 42 attempts for 274 yards, no touchdowns and an interception -- his first since Week 4. With the loss officially ending the Packers' long-shot bid for the playoffs, there's reason to think the team could exercise some caution with its star signal-caller for the final two games of the regular season. Philbin noted earlier in the week that…read more

Playoff elimination not a factor
Head coach Joe Philbin relayed Monday that he has no plans to shut down Rodgers (groin) for the final two weeks of the season, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports. "I think when you sign up for the 2018 NFL season, you sign up for a 16-game season and hopefully you earn the opportunity to extend that and to compete for a championship," said Philbin. "Obviously, the extension part is over. That being said, you're a football player, you're part of a team and your one role is to the contribute to the overall success of the team."
Analysis: The Packers' elimination from playoff contention following the team's Week 15 loss to the Bears won't prevent Rodgers from taking the field in Week 16, but a groin issue that surfaced during the contest still casts some doubt on whether he will dress. Even if Rodgers does play, he could be without a pair of weapons in Randall Cobb (concussion) and Aaron Jones (knee), who both exited Sunday's game against the Bears due to injury. If Rodgers is ultimately unable to suit up, DeShone Kizer would…read more

Status remains murky
Coach Joe Philbin didn't provide detail on Rodgers' groin injury Monday, the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: After Sunday's 24-17 defeat in Chicago, Rodgers told Michael Cohen of The Athletic that he tweaked his groin on a last-second Hail Mary heave at the end of the first half. Rodgers intends to play out the string of a season that won't include a playoff appearance for a second consecutive year, but the injury could cause the Packers to exercise caution with their $134-million dollar man. DeShone Kizer would be the next quarterback up if Rodgers misses any time, whether it's in practice or a game.

Picks up groin injury Sunday
Rodgers said his groin tightened up during Sunday's 24-14 defeat at Chicago, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports. "I'd like to be out there and lead us the last two weeks," Rodgers told Cohen in the post-game media session.
Analysis: Rodgers tweaked his groin on a Hail Mary attempt at the end of the first half that was batted to the ground. With the Packers in catch-up mode all game, he attempted more than 40 passes (42, to be precise) for the eighth time in 14 games on the season, but his 274 yards were his most since Week 11. He also failed to record a touchdown throw for the first time since he was knocked out of a Week 6 contest at Minnesota last season. Finally, his streak without an interception was snapped at 402…read more

Comes up short in division rivalry
Rodgers completed 24 of 42 passes for 274 yards and an interception during Sunday's 24-17 loss to Chicago. He added 25 yards on three carries.
Analysis: Down by 10 in the closing minutes of the game, Rodgers looked like he was in position to lead a comeback. Instead, after marching to the Chicago nine-yard line, Rodgers was picked off in the end zone by Eddie Jackson, effectively sticking a fork in the Packers. Green Bay has been in a tailspin with six losses in the last eight games. Rodgers, depending on who you listen to, has been the cause, the victim, or both. Either way, the two-time MVP has not accounted for more than two touchdowns in a…read more

Fails to reach 200 yards
Rodgers completed 21 of 32 passes for 196 yards and two touchdowns while adding three carries for 44 yards in Sunday's win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Rodgers started strong by completing six of seven passes for 62 yards and a touchdown on the opening drive, but he still struggled to connect on passes downfield for much of the afternoon. The veteran signal-caller found Randall Cobb for a 24-yard touchdown in the third quarter to push the Packers' lead to 27-7, and Aaron Jones' touchdown run later in the period allowed the offense to go into cruise control. Rodgers looked a bit better with interim coach Joe Philbin calling the plays following…read more

Quiet for second straight week
Rodgers completed 31 of 50 passes for 233 yards and a touchdown while adding 20 yards on three scrambles in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Rodgers' lone touchdown was a 13-yard strike to favorite receiver Davante Adams in the second quarter. The quarterback showed a lot of heart by leading a fourth-quarter touchdown drive to tie the game 17-17 and then putting his team in position to kick a game-tying, 49-yard field goal as time expired (Mason Crosby missed the kick). While Rodgers hasn't lived up to his usual lofty standards this season, the sky's the limit for him in Week 14, when a vulnerable Falcons defense comes to town.

Lowest fantasy output this season
Rodgers completed 17 of 28 pass attempts for 198 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Rodgers didn't bring his A game in an important divisional matchup, despite completing 61 percent of his passes and not turning the ball over. His lackluster night can be summed up on a fourth-quarter play where the usually pinpoint Rodgers overthrew an open Davante Adams in the end zone. Part of the veteran's struggles can be attributed to losing the left side of his offensive line to injury, resulting in four sacks at the hands of Minnesota's strong defensive line. The Vikings also did a good…read more

Stellar in Week 11 loss
Rodgers completed 21 of 30 passes for 332 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 27-24 loss to the Seahawks on Thursday. He also rushed once for three yards.
Analysis: Rodgers put on an outstanding performance in defeat, remaining mistake-free and firing a pair of particularly impressive touchdown passes to Robert Tonyan and Aaron Jones. The All-Pro signal-caller was in vintage form on the former, scrambling around and buying time before flinging a pass across the field over 50 yards for the score. Rodgers lost tight end Jimmy Graham during the contest due to a thumb injury, and he came up empty on what would turn out to be the Packers' final drive with a…read more

Analysis: In the portion of Tuesday's session open to the media, Rodgers was in a helmet, per Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site, forecasting his eventual activity level. Rodgers now will turn his entire focus to Thursday's road game against a Seahawks defense that has given up 285.3 passing yards per game and six touchdowns to quarterbacks over the last three contests.

Analysis: Since hurting his left knee in the regular-season opener, Rodgers has been a fixture on Packers injury reports. However, he handled every possible practice rep last week for the first time and proceeded to put up 199 yards and two touchdowns through the air during Sunday's 31-12 win against the Dolphins. Just one day removed from that contest, Rodgers wouldn't have practiced if the Packers had held a session. The decision likely was maintenance-based, but his status should be monitored in…read more

Throws two touchdown passes
Rodgers completed 19 of 28 pass attempts for 199 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Rodgers completed 68 percent of his passes, but he finished averaging 7.1 yards per attempt as he struggled to generate many big plays. He wasn't forced to carry the load thanks to a tremendous day from the running game, but two touchdown passes to Davante Adams salvaged his performance from a fantasy perspective. Though Rodgers has a sterling 17:1 TD:INT on the season, he's topped two touchdown passes just twice and hasn't eclipsed 300 yards since Week 6. He'll face a tough road matchup with…read more

Lowest yardage of season
Rodgers completed 24 of 43 pass attempts for 259 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-17 loss to New England.
Analysis: When a two-touchdown game with over 250 yards is considered a "bad game," it speaks to Rodgers' abilities, but it statistically was his worst showing of the season. The 34-year-old just didn't have his A game, uncharacteristically missing some open targets as the team tried to come back late in the second half. On the positive side, Rodgers and his nagging knee injury appear to be healthier with each week that passes. Expect the star quarterback to bounce back against the Dolphins' 23rd-ranked…read more

Analysis: Having his practice reps capped is status quo for Rodgers, who has toughed out a sprained MCL to rank third in the NFL with 326 passing yards per game while boasting an outstanding 13 touchdowns versus just one interception through seven games. Expect him to ditch his injury designation by week's end as he prepares for Sunday's visit to New England, whose pass defense sits 27th overall (277.3 yards per game) in the league.

Rodgers (knee) didn't participate in the open portion of Wednesday's practice, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports.

Robbed of potential game-winning drive
Rodgers completed 18 of 30 pass attempts for 286 yards and a touchdown, adding a five-yard rush during Sunday's 29-27 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Rodgers was deprived of a potential game-winning drive in the final two minutes of play, as Ty Montgomery brought a kickoff out of the end zone and was stripped around the 22-yard line to give Los Angeles a chokehold on the game that would not be relinquished. Rodgers was masterful in leading Green Bay back from a 10-point second-half deficit prior to that, connecting with Marquez Valdes-Scantling on a 40-yard dart down the right sideline to provide the Pack with a momentary 27-26 lead in the…read more

Analysis: As the Packers emerged from their bye week, Rodgers upheld his standard of rehabbing his left knee Tuesday, with an expectation that he would practice Wednesday, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Rodgers proceeded to do just that, and was even donning a smaller knee brace than normal, per Silverstein.

Green Bay isn't required to release its initial practice report for Week 8 before Wednesday, so it won't be known until that time whether Rodgers' lingering left knee injury renders him a limited or non-participant.

Hoping to shed brace during bye
Rodgers said after Monday's victory over the 49ers that he is hoping to shed his knee brace during the Packers' bye week, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL.com.
Analysis: Rodgers will certainly benefit from the Packers' off week, but whether or not he will get rid of the brace will depend on just how much improvement his knee shows in the coming days. Rodgers has still been effective and somewhat mobile despite his injury -- he picked up 34 yards on three runs Monday -- but his play could get even better as he gets back, or at least close, to 100 percent.

Leads game-winning drive
Rodgers completed 25 of 46 passes for 425 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 33-30 win over the 49ers. He also rushed three times for 34 yards.
Analysis: Rodgers was locked in Monday night, leading Green Bay to victory on its final drive of the game. In doing so, Rodgers threw for over 400 yards for the second straight game, both of which came without two of his top three wideouts. Now heading into his bye week, Rodgers will hope the time off helps his knee condition improve before facing off with the Rams in Week 8.

Not listed on injury report
Rodgers (knee) is officially absent from the Packers' injury report for Monday's matchup with the 49ers, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: There was originally concern for Rodgers' status after he admitted to suffering a minor setback with his MCL sprain in last week's lost to the Lions. However, he logged a full session at Friday's practice, so this news is relatively unsurprising. Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (hamstring) are both considered game-time decisions, so Rodgers could once again be short-handed at receiver.

Rodgers (knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Rodgers suffered a minor setback with his MCL sprain during last week's loss to the Lions and subsequently was held out from Thursday's practice. His return to full participation Friday suggests he should be fine to face the 49ers on Monday, with a chance to get Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (hamstring) back in the lineup.

Analysis: The fact that Rodgers is being withheld from the Packers' first practice of the week isn't anything new, as his reps have been restricted since he sustained a deep bone bruise and sprained MCL in his left knee in the season-opening win over the Bears.

Knee soreness getting worse
Rodgers said after Sunday's loss to the Lions that his knee is "a little more sore today than the last couple of weeks," Zachary Jacobson of KLGR 1490 AM reports.
Analysis: Rodgers was already dealing with a sore knee coming into Sunday's game, and the situation was made worse after the quarterback was awkwardly dragged down on a first-quarter scramble. Rodgers was seen adjusting his knee brace on multiple occasions thereafter trying to get comfortable.

Season-high yardage total in loss
Rodgers completed 32 of 52 passes for 442 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 31-23 loss to the Lions on Sunday. He also three times for 10 yards and lost two fumbles.
Analysis: Despite getting sacked on four occasions and being down two receivers in Randall Cobb (hamstring) and Geronimo Allison (concussion/hamstring), Rodgers once again corroborated his status as one of the game's elite by persevering and putting up an eye-popping stat line. Rodgers peppered the trio of Davante Adams, Jimmy Graham and Marquez Valdes-Scantling with double-digit targets with considerable success, connecting with them for 22 completions, 284 yards and two touchdowns. Rodgers ultimately…read more

Logs full practice Thursday
Rodgers (knee) practiced in full Thursday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Taking on every practice rep is the most significant development in Rodgers' recovery from the left knee injury suffered in the regular-season opener. While toughing it out the last three games, he's completed 62.7 percent of his passes, averaged 281.3 yards per game and posted four touchdowns versus one interception. If he avoids the injury report entirely Friday, he'll enter game day without any question about his availability for the first time since Week 1. There are question marks…read more

Doesn't practice Wednesday
Rodgers (knee) was held out of Wednesday's practice, Michael Cohen of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: On the heels of his first official practice session since Week 1 last Thursday, Rodgers had a modest showing during Sunday's win against the Bills, completing 22 of 40 passes for 298 yards, one touchdown and one interception. As he kicked off Week 5 preparations, he told Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com that he was "moving better" in that contest and believes his left knee is "not regressing." The latter point is key after Rodgers admitted Sept. 19 that the knee injury could worsen as he continues…read more

Won't practice Wednesday
Rodgers (knee) will be limited to working with the Packers' rehab group Wednesday, but it's expected he'll participate in practices Thursday and Saturday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers appears poised to follow the same practice regimen he did Week 4, so his lack of on-field reps Wednesday shouldn't be taken as a sign that he suffered a setback with his lingering left knee injury. Though the Packers earned a convincing 22-0 win over the Bills on Sunday, Rodgers turned in perhaps his most underwhelming performance of the season, completing only 22 of 40 passes for 298 yards, one touchdown and an interception. On a more positive note with regards to his health, Rodgers…read more

Just shy of 300 passing yards in win
Rodgers completed 22 of 40 passes for 298 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's 22-0 win over Buffalo. He also rushed five times for 31 yards and lost a fumble.
Analysis: Rodgers wasn't at his best, but he didn't have to be with Josh Allen and Buffalo's offense unable to get anything going. His lone touchdown was a three-yard pass to tight end Jimmy Graham in the first quarter. While he's still operating at less than 100 percent due to a knee injury, Rodgers should be deployed as usual against Detroit in Week 5.

Rodgers (knee) is active Sunday against the Bills.
Analysis: Rodgers has been tagged with a questionable designation for three consecutive weeks, and in a pattern Green Bay fans and fantasy owners have come to expect, he'll suit up yet again for the green and gold. While it's no secret the mobility of Rodgers has been limited due to the injury, he's still managed to throw for six touchdowns and zero interceptions through the season's first three weeks. In each game this season, Rodgers has compiled 265 or more yards, a completion percentage of 61 percent…read more

However, the perennial Pro Bowler subsequently denied having suffered any further injury, according to Demovsky.

In his first game on a balky left knee Week 2, he compiled 281 yards and one touchdown against one of the NFL's top defenses, the Vikings, albeit with the help of an overtime period. His mobility was clearly hindered, though, and will be tested further in what will be rainy conditions in Landover, Md. this Sunday.

That was ultimately enough for Rodgers to garner an active status Sunday, with the signal-caller finishing that contest with 30 completions on 42 attempts for 281 yards and a touchdown.

Analysis: Rodgers played through the pain and with a bulky brace on his left knee Sunday, one week removed from the hit that knocked him out of the season opener for a quarter and raised the specter of a potential absence. He nonetheless pushed through, completing 30 of 42 passes for 281 yards and one touchdown against a tough defense. Expect Rodgers' practice reps to be monitored closely this week as he prepares for Sunday's visit to Washington.

Throws for 281 yards versus Vikings
Rodgers (knee) completed 30 of 42 pass attempts for 281 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 29-29 tie with the Vikings. He also rushed three times for eight yards.
Analysis: Rodgers played with a brace on his left knee after last week's injury, and his limited mobility clearly limited the offensive playbook in some regards. Despite his efficient 71 percent completion rate, he averaged just 6.7 yards per attempt and managed just one play longer than 22 yards. Still, Rodgers' otherworldly arm and knowledge of the playbook allowed the Pack to move the ball against an elite defensive opponent, and the fact that he was well enough to actually run the ball on three…read more

During said session, though, he impressed the team enough to give him the all-clear to play through what Adam Schefter of ESPN called a "compression injury from blunt force while bent." Expect Rodgers' mobility to be compromised, which likely means the Packers will employ a quick-strike game plan to keep him out of harm's way.

Expected to play through pain Sunday
Rodgers, who is listed as questionable but is expected to start Sunday against the Vikings barring a setback, isn't dealing with any ligament damage to his left knee, but could require up to two months to fully heal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. "He has a pretty unusual injury that would keep most people out awhile," a source told Schefter.
Analysis: According to Schefter, Rodgers' knee issue is characterized as a "compression injury from blunt force while bent," which will likely make mobility an issue for the signal-caller for the next few weeks if he continues to play through the pain. While Rodgers appeared to assuage some concern about his health by taking part in Saturday's walk-through practice, the source said "there will certainly be a short leash" in the event the quarterback aggravates the injury in Sunday's contest.

Analysis: While Rodgers' appearance was predictably brief, it served its purpose -- the multi-time Pro Bowler led a crisp 40-yard scoring drive that he capped off with an eight-yard touchdown to notable offseason acquisition Jimmy Graham. Rodgers connected with Davante Adams for 27 yards on his other completion earlier in the series, giving him a pair of successful hookups with a pair of pass catchers that could well be his most-targeted in the coming season. Having broken the preseason ice, Rodgers will…read more

Gearing up for Thursday
Rodgers is taking reps in the team period of Monday's practice, putting him on track for the start in Thursday's preseason game against Pittsburgh, Michael Cohen of The Athletic Wisconsin reports.
Analysis: Rodgers hasn't played in a preseason opener since 2015, typically making his annual debut during the second week of the exhibition schedule. He only played for one series at the same juncture last year, then handled two drives in the third week of the preseason. Training camp is his real opportunity to build chemistry with Jimmy Graham (knee) and the Packers' slew of rookie wideouts.

Unlikely to play Thursday
Rodgers is unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Titans, ESPN.com's Rob Demovsky reports.
Analysis: Rodgers hasn't played in the first week of the preseason since 2015, and the Packers probably won't break the trend while both starting tackles are recovering from injuries. The team hopes to have LT David Bakhtiari (ankle) and RT Bryan Bulaga (knee) ready for Week 1 against Chicago, but it would be unwise to expose Rodgers to hits in the meantime. While the 34-year-old quarterback still figures to take some snaps during the preseason, he'll probably be limited to a mix of handoffs and quick…read more

Rodgers hopes to still be playing football when he's 40 years old, Peter King of NBC Sports reports. "I'd love to play to 40," he said. "I just think that number means a lot. Obviously, Tom [Brady] is kind of rewriting the book. Brett [Favre] had a good season when he turned 40. My goal is be able to move like I do or close to how I do and still be able to do that at 40."
Analysis: Rodgers points to the fact he's done a good job avoiding injuries, with the exception of breaking his collarbone in 2013 and 2017. He's otherwise played 15 or 16 games each season since taking over as the starter, accounting for at least 32 touchdowns in every full campaign. The 34-year-old acknowledges that he's been thinking about his contract as he prepares for the fourth season of a five-year, $110 million extension. The deal put him first in the league for average annual value when he…read more

Frustrated with front office
Rodgers is frustrated with the lack of communication between him and the Packers front office this offseason, Charles Robinson of Yahoo! Sports reports.
Analysis: Rodgers likely understands that he can't make decisions for management, but he reportedly wishes the team had at least consulted him before cutting ties with former quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt and wide receiver Jordy Nelson. The 34-year-old quarterback doesn't seem to be a huge fan of new general manager Brian Gutenkunst, potentially making it a bit tougher to hammer out a contract extension. Rodgers' current deal has him scheduled to make $20.6 million in 2018 and $21.1 million in 2019,…read more

Ready to go for OTAs
Head coach Mike McCarthy relayed Wednesday that the Packers' team trainer said "everything looks good" with regard to Rodgers' recovery from Oct. 19 surgery to repair his right collarbone, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports. McCarthy said Rodgers would be ready to go for the Packers' offseason program, which begins in April.
Analysis: Rodgers was able to recover from the procedure and return from injured reserve when first eligible to start Week 15 against the Panthers, even though his collarbone hadn't completely healed at that point. The signal caller avoided any reported setbacks in that game, but exhibited some rustiness while completing only 26-of-45 passes for 290 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in a losing effort, which essentially ended the Packers' playoff hopes. The Packers returned Rodgers to IR…read more

Ready for full offseason
Rodgers (collarbone) expects to be fully ready for offseason programs in April, the Wisconsin State Journal reports.
Analysis: This news was expected since Rodgers hasn't been held back during his personal workouts so far this offseason. Maybe even more importantly, he also felt well enough to play in the Waste Management Phoenix Open Pro-Am this past weekend. The 34-year-old will head into the 2018 season with two years remaining on his current contract.

Recovering well from two IR stints
Rodgers (collarbone) stated Wednesday at the Waste Management Phoenix Open Pro-Am that he's "feeling good," Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Just over six weeks removed from landing on injured reserve for the second time this season, Rodgers is participating in a golf tournament, so he appears to be in a good spot regarding his recovery from a fractured right clavicle. That's not to say he's all the way there, but considering the 2017 campaign has yet to wrap, there's little doubt he'll be a full go once the Packers' offseason program kicks off in April. Since he last took the field Week 15, the Packers have altered both the front…read more

Won't require further procedures
Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said Thursday that Rodgers won't require any further procedures on his surgically-repaired right collarbone, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "Aaron's in rest and recovery mode," McCarthy said. "He has a distinct rehab plan as he moves forward."
Analysis: The Packers' medical staff signed off on Rodgers to return from a seven-game absence and start in the Week 15 loss to the Panthers, even though the quarterback's collarbone wasn't 100 percent healed. Though Rodgers didn't suffer a setback with his throwing shoulder during the outing, McCarthy relayed that the two-time MVP was a little sore afterward. With Green Bay eliminated from postseason contention in the aftermath of Week 15, the team elected to move Rodgers back to injured reserve for the…read more

Shut down for season
The Packers placed Rodgers (collarbone) on injured reserve Tuesday, ending his season.
Analysis: Per Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Packers head coach Mike McCarthy noted that Rodgers was "sore" following his return from a seven-game absence in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Panthers, but it's not believed that he experienced a setback with his surgically repaired collarbone. Instead, Rodgers' move back to IR for the second time this season likely has more to do with the Packers officially being eliminated from postseason contention following the Falcons' win over the Buccaneers on…read more

Week 16 status to be determined
Head coach Mike McCarthy wouldn't say definitely Monday whether Rodgers will start Saturday's matchup with the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Instead, McCarthy referred to Rodgers as "sore" in the aftermath of his return to action Sunday in Carolina and that the Packers are "working through" figuring out his Week 16 availability. A determining factor could be elimination from playoff contention, which would happen with a Falcons win Monday at Tampa Bay. As a contingency plan, the team re-signed Joe Callahan to the 53-man roster, setting up a scenario in which Brett Hundley regains his stature as the starting quarterback with the…read more

May not start final two games
Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said after Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Panthers that he wasn't certain if Rodgers would start at quarterback in the team's final two games of the regular season, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: In order to have a realistic shot at reaching the postseason, the 7-7 Packers would have had to win their final three contests, but the return of the two-time MVP from a seven-game absence Sunday wasn't quite enough to keep Green Bay afloat. Though Rodgers found success early on against Carolina in his first game in two months following surgery to repair a fractured collarbone, he exhibited some rust during the contest, with his three interceptions on the day all coming on underthrown balls.…read more

Mixed bag in return to action
Rodgers (collarbone) completed 26 of 45 passes for 290 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Panthers. He also rushed six times for 43 yards.
Analysis: Making his first appearance since Week 6, Rodgers was bedeviled by the Panthers' defense on multiple occasions, but he enjoyed his share of successes as well. The multi-time Pro Bowler was sacked on three occasions and intercepted on three others, but he also fired touchdown passes to Davante Adams, Randall Cobb and Richard Rodgers, the latter capping a six-play, 76-yard drive late in the fourth quarter. Rodgers' arm strength appeared to be back to normal as well, and he acquitted himself well…read more

Cleared to return Sunday
Rodgers (collarbone), who was activated from injured reserve Saturday, doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Carolina.
Analysis: Although the Packers tacked Rodgers onto the injury report Saturday, the lack of a designation is the final bit of information needed to pencil him in as the starting quarterback Sunday. In four career appearances against the Panthers, he's averaged 307.5 passing yards per game and posted a 12:2 TD:INT.

Analysis: On Tuesday, Rodgers relayed in a post on his personal Instagram account that he received medical clearance from the team's medical staff to return when first eligible. The development was weeks in the making, as he was seen throwing up to 50 yards before the Packers' Week 12 loss in Pittsburgh and was designated for return Dec. 2. According to Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, Rodgers will have a designation on the injury report, but there isn't much doubt about his ability to play Sunday.

Rodgers underwent tests on his surgically repaired collarbone Monday morning, but the results are still being reviewed, and a decision on his Week 15 status has not yet been made, Michael Cohen of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: There was a chance that Mike McCarthy would reveal during his Monday afternoon press conference whether or not Rodgers would start in the Packers' Week 15 matchup with the Panthers, but the head coach did not provide any clarity one way or another.

Practices in pads Thursday
Rodgers (collarbone) practiced in pads Thursday, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: During Saturday's walkthrough, the Packers opened a three-week window in which to activate Rodgers from injured reserve. An ensuing "trial practice week" has so far included throwing against air with accuracy Wednesday, including out routes and even an arcing 55-yard bomb to Trevor Davis, according to Wood. In order to play when first eligible Week 15 at Carolina, Rodgers will likely need to increase his workload steadily over the next week and a half, getting medical clearance in the process.…read more

Returns to practice
Rodgers (collarbone) celebrated his 34th birthday by returning to practice Saturday, Michael Cohen of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Rodgers is not necessarily considered ahead of schedule in his recovery, rather just progressing in his rehab process. There are still many hurdles for the star quarterback to jump before the medical staff can clear him. While his presence at practice is certainly cause for optimism, he is still not eligible to return from injured reserve until the Packers' Week 15 contest against the Panthers, and the team could still opt to avoid bringing him back if it is out of playoff contention.

Rodgers (collarbone) made at least one throw that traveled 50 yards in the air during his brief on-field workout prior to Sunday's game against the Steelers, ESPN.com's Rob Demovsky reports.
Analysis: Rodgers seems to be progressing a bit better than expected, as a return from injured reserve in 2017 was considered unlikely when he first had surgery Oct. 19 to repair a broken right clavicle. It at least now seems to be a possibility, with the quarterback eligible to resume practicing this week and eligible to play in games starting with Week 15 against the Panthers. He made it clear that he won't return unless his injury is fully healed, and it's also worth considering that the Packers…read more

Analysis: As mentioned by Demovsky, the session marked Rodgers' first that including visual evidence of throwing. The development comes just days before Rodgers can embark on the final stages of his recovery from a fractured right collarbone.

Packers head coach Mike McCarthy indicated that he was satisfied with how Rodgers (collarbone) looked while doing rehab work off to the side during Wednesday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "I think [Rodgers is] making really good progress," McCarthy said Thursday. "I know the training staff and the strength and conditioning staff are very pleased with where he is. He's moving right along."
Analysis: The workout amounted to Rodgers' first on-field appearance since he fractured his right collarbone Oct. 15 against the Vikings, resulting in a complex surgery four days later that necessitated two plates and 13 screws being inserted into the collarbone. While the Packers aren't banking on Rodgers playing again this season, the quarterback at least took a positive step forward in that regard with Wednesday's activity.

Analysis: Marking the first visual evidence of his rehabilitation, Rodgers did some drills related to conditioning and footwork, took snaps from a member of the Packers training staff and simulated throwing via whipping a towel. For someone nearly four weeks removed from having two plates inserted into his broken right collarbone, he appears to be in a good spot in his recovery.

Team not counting on 2017 return
Rodgers had two plates inserted into his fractured right collarbone during his Oct. 19 surgery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. While Rapoport notes that it is "theoretically possible" for Rodgers to come off injured reserve in Week 15 or later this season, the Packers "do not expect" him to play again in 2017.
Analysis: According to Rapoport, Rodgers' collarbone was displaced when he was driven into the ground by the Vikings' Anthony Barr in an Oct. 15 game, resulting in a more complex procedure than the one he required on his left (non-throwing) collarbone back in 2013. Rodgers missed seven games as a result of that injury, but he'll be sidelined for at least eight weeks this time around by virtue of being placed on IR. Rapoport also notes that the 13 screws Rodgers revealed he required for the procedure…read more
