Solid performance not enough
Rodgers completed 20 of 29 passes for 225 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions during the Packers' 13-10 loss to the 49ers in their NFC divisional-round matchup Saturday night. He also committed a fumble that was recovered by Green Bay.
Analysis: Rodgers' numbers were underwhelming from a fantasy perspective due to the complete absence of touchdowns. The future Hall of Famer also couldn't follow up a very efficient first quarter with enough production the rest of the way, not leading another scoring drive until a 14-play, 57-yard march early in the fourth quarter that culminated in a Mason Crosby 33-yard field goal. Those points would prove to be the final ones of the night for Green Bay, with the Packers going backward on their final…read more

Logs full practice Tuesday
Rodgers (toe) was a full practice participant Tuesday.
Analysis: In his previous media availability last Wednesday, Rodgers relayed that his left pinkie toe fracture wouldn't be a problem for him during the playoffs. With the Packers set to open their postseason run Saturday versus the 49ers, he opened the week of prep without limitations on the practice field, a change from the norm that had been established since he sustained the injury. Stretching back to Week 11, Rodgers has put together 1,929 yards, 20 touchdowns and no interceptions in his last seven…read more

Toe issue almost behind him
Rodgers said Wednesday that his fractured left pinkie toe won't be an issue in the postseason, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers has been contending with the injury since his return from a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list that forced him to sit out a Week 9 matchup with the Chiefs. While he didn't record a touchdown in his return Week 10 against the Seahawks, he's been on an absolute tear in the meantime, throwing for 20 scores versus no interceptions while racking up 1,929 yards over the last seven games. Rodgers relayed he hasn't taken a pain-killing injection in his toe since it was stepped on just before…read more

Brief showing
Rodgers completed 14 of 18 pass attempts for 138 yards and two touchdowns against Detroit on Sunday. He also rushed once for seven yards.
Analysis: Rodgers took a surprising amount of pressure in this brief appearance, getting sacked three times; however, this was otherwise little more than a walkthrough for the MVP candidate before Jordan Love took over in the second half. He finishes the year with 366 completions on 531 pass attempts, producing 4,115 yards, 38 touchdowns and four interceptions in 16 games. Guessing the future with Rodgers has been a rocky task in recent years, but a team doesn't willingly part with an MVP-winning…read more

Ready for start
Rodgers (toe) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers has played some of the best football of his career while dealing with the toe injury, and he wants to continue in Week 18 even with the Packers locked in for the No. 1 seed in the NFC. Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed Friday that Rodgers will start Sunday, though LaFleur wasn't much help in terms of expectations for playing time, merely saying it would be based on how the game goes. Anything from a couple drives to a full game is thus in play, making Rodgers a high-risk, high-reward fantasy…read more

Confirmed for Week 18 start
Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed Rodgers will start Sunday's game against the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Playing a full game is another matter, with the Packers locked in for the NFC's No. 1 seed. LaFleur didn't provide much in terms of hints, simply saying he'll see how the game goes before making any decisions on pulling starters. That leaves Rodgers as a risky Week 18 fantasy option, albeit with huge upside in a dome game against a bad defense.

Gets in limited practice
Rodgers (toe) was a limited participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Since coming down with a broken toe in mid-November, Rodgers often hasn't made his presence felt on the practice field before the final session of a given week, if he's been able to take part at all. As a result, he seems to be healthier than he's been in some time and poised to get rid of his designation when the Packers post Friday's injury report, as he normally does. Coach Matt LaFleur hasn't revealed how much Rodgers may play Sunday at Detroit, suggesting Wednesday that he'll feel out the…read more

Practicing Thursday
Rodgers (toe) took part in Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It's rare for Rodgers to get practice reps on Fridays since he was diagnosed with a broken toe in mid-November. Now with an appearance on the field on a Thursday, he appears to be the healthiest he's been in some time and will log at least a limited session. The bigger question surrounding Rodgers for a Week 18 visit to Detroit is how much he'll play Sunday, which coach Matt LaFleur indicated Wednesday would be based off "feel," per Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.

No practice Wednesday
Rodgers (toe) didn't take part in practice Wednesday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Rodgers made a rare appearance at practice last Friday, mixing in as a limited participant. It was his first notable practice activity since Week 14, but the fractured toe hasn't stopped him from producing on game days, as he's accounted for 1,791 yards, 18 touchdowns and no interceptions with a 71.6 percent completion rate over the last six contests. With the NFC's No. 1 seed already locked up, the Packers may opt to hold Rodgers out or limit his snap count Sunday at Detroit. Speaking to the…read more

Strong showing in blowout win
Rodgers (toe) completed 29 of 38 pass attempts for 288 yards and two touchdowns while rushing two times for eight more yards in Sunday's 37-10 rout of the Vikings.
Analysis: Minnesota's defense was able to contain Rodgers for the first couple drives of the contest, but once the quarterback got rolling, it turned into a landslide victory. Things got so out of hand that backup Jordan Love got to run the offense for the final half of the fourth quarter. Rodgers improved his season total to 3,977 yards with a 69 percent completion rate. The 38-year-old will fall short of his gaudy MVP totals from a year ago, but a sparkling 35:4 TD:INT ratio is the best in the NFL,…read more

Cleared from injury report
Rodgers (toe) returned to practice Friday as a limited participant and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Analysis: Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com notes that Rodgers' practice participation is a sign of progress, following back-to-back weeks with nothing but absences. The veteran quarterback seems to have avoided further aggravations of his toe injury since Week 14, and he's the frontrunner for NFL MVP after tossing 16 touchdowns (and zero interceptions) over the past five games. Four of those were Green Bay wins, with the exception being Week 11 at Minnesota when Rodgers' 385 passing yards and four touchdowns…read more

Another missed practice
Rodgers (toe) didn't practice Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Rodgers has gutted out a broken toe over the last five games and even aggravated the injury this past Saturday against the Browns. Still, he's been on point during that span, with three 300-yard efforts and 16 touchdowns versus no interceptions. If past weeks are any indication, Rodgers won't have a game-day designation once the Packers post their final Week 17 practice report Friday.

No practice Wednesday
Rodgers (toe) isn't practicing Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodgers' absence comes as no surprise after his broken toe was stepped on and kicked during this past Saturday's win against the Browns. He received treatment at halftime of that contest and played all 58 offensive snaps on his way to 202 passing yards and three touchdowns on a 71 percent completion rate. As he's done in advance of each of the past five games, Rodgers is focusing on rest and rehab to keep him as fresh as possible during the stretch run of the campaign. He's not a lock to mix…read more

Three TDs in Christmas win
Rodgers completed 24 of 34 passes for 202 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 24-22 win over the Browns on Saturday. He also lost a yard on one carry.
Analysis: Rodgers connected with Allen Lazard and Davante Adams for his trio of scoring tosses in the first half to help Green Bay jump out to a 21-12 halftime lead. The future Hall of Famer wasn't anywhere near as successful moving the ball in the second half, but he stayed away from turnovers altogether and did helm an 11-play, 76-yard march early in the third quarter to set up a Mason Crosby 32-yard field goal that would prove to be the Packers' final points of the afternoon. The Browns largely…read more

Ready for Saturday
Rodgers (toe) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's game against the Browns, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: This comes as no surprise as Rodgers hasn't practiced on his fractured toe for weeks but still has been able to suit up on game days. He nonetheless has been on point during the Packers' current three-game winning streak, averaging 305.3 yards per game and tossing nine touchdowns versus no interceptions during that span.

Analysis: It's no surprise Rodgers didn't take part in any drills, as it's been his weekly routine since it was revealed he was tending to a fractured toe. The consistent rest hasn't affected his play in the slightest, with Rodgers completing 70.8 percent of his passes for 916 yards, nine touchdowns and no interceptions during Green Bay's current three-game winning streak.

No practice activity Tuesday
Rodgers (toe) was estimated as a non-participant on Tuesday's injury report.
Analysis: A lack of participation in practice to begin weeks has been the norm for Rodgers as he continues to deal with a fractured toe. The injury hasn't impacted his play on the field, though, as he's completed 70.5 percent of his passes for 1,301 yards, 13 touchdowns and no interceptions over the last four games. Assuming he follows precedent from previous weeks, Rodgers will be cleared in advance of Saturday's contest against the Browns.

Ties Packers record
Rodgers completed 23 of 31 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Rodgers' performance saw him tie Brett Favre for the most career touchdown passes (422) in Packers history. His first came on a three-yarder to favorite target Davante Adams, then Rodgers found Aaron Jones from nine yards and Marquez Valdes-Scantling from 11 on his two scores in the second half. The signal-caller could've had another to seal the game in the fourth, but he uncharacteristically overthrew Allen Lazard, forcing Green Bay to settle for a field goal on the next play. Despite the…read more

Ready to face Ravens
Rodgers (toe) has no injury designation for Sunday's game in Baltimore, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodgers sat out all three practices this week, just as he did Week 12 leading up to a win over the Rams. He then managed one limited practice last week before a victory over the Bears, but Rodgers scaled back this week after aggravating his toe in that game. So far, the toe fracture hasn't hurt his performance, with the veteran QB putting up three straight games of 300-plus yards and multiple touchdown passes.

Analysis: Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, Rodgers acknowledged his fractured pinkie toe "feels worse" coming out of Sunday's 45-30 win over the Bears than it did prior to the Packers' Week 13 bye, but he views surgery as a "last resort" and intends to continue playing through the injury. Though he'll be off the field for the second straight day, Rodgers has shown in recent weeks that he doesn't need much practice time, if any, to perform at a high level on game days.

Rodgers (toe) isn't practicing Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodgers aggravated his fractured toe during Sunday's 45-30 win over the Bears, but he nonetheless put up a big stat line for the third straight week and ultimately opted against a minor surgery that might have threatened his availability for the upcoming game in Baltimore this weekend. Rodgers said he won't practice much the rest of the season but doesn't expect to miss any games.

Will continue to play with injured toe
Rodgers said Tuesday on his weekly appearance on The Pat McAfee Show that his toe injury won't keep him from suiting up on game days, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "It's just pain management, but I'm going to keep playing and probably not practice a whole lot," Rodgers relayed
Analysis: There was no mention of surgery, which Rodgers bandied about after aggravating his toe injury during this past Sunday's win against the Bears. It appears the quarterback has avoided such a fate, but he also seems as if he'll cede practice reps to whichever quarterback is available this week, whether it's Jordan Love (illness) -- who is on the reserve/COVID-19 list -- or Kurt Benkert. Assuming his prediction comes to pass this weekend, Rodgers again will be under center Sunday at Baltimore.

Hopes to avoid minor surgery
Rodgers hopes to avoid minor surgery to immobilize his fractured toe, but he did acknowledge it as a possibility Sunday night after aggravating the injury during a 45-30 win over the Bears, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "That would be last resort, for sure," Rodgers said. "But I've got to see what kind of setback it was tonight."
Analysis: While surgery wouldn't automatically mean missing a game, Rodgers hopes to avoid it after throwing for 300-plus yards and multiple touchdowns in each of his first three contests since suffering the toe fracture. He said a decision would come Monday after more testing, with Rodgers aiming for a plan that would allow him to play this Sunday in Baltimore. Kurt Benkert served as Rodgers' backup for the primetime win over Chicago, with Jordan Love (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list since last…read more

Analysis: Chicago appeared to use Rodgers' comment about his relationship with the team as bulletin board material in the first half of this contest, but the cream eventually rose to the top in yet another win for the quarterback in this rivalry. The 38-year-old has been on an absolute roll recently, passing for 1,033 yards with 10 touchdowns and no turnovers over his last three games.

Injured toe improving after bye
Rodgers said Tuesday during an appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" that his fractured left pinkie toe showed improvement during the Packers' Week 13 bye, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "The biggest key is rest. I wish there was another one of these [bye] weeks so I could get 14-to-21 great days without doing anything, but the toe is improving," Rodgers said.
Analysis: Rodgers' comments about his improving health offers some reassurance that he'll be in less pain during the Packers' Week 14 game against the Bears, but as he acknowledges, the toe injury likely won't be resolved completely until he receives some extended rest. Even so, Rodgers opted to forgo surgery during the bye week to address the injury, hoping that he'll be able to play through the issue for the rest of the regular season and playoffs before likely going under the knife at some point over…read more

Rodgers relayed on Tuesday's episode of The Pat McAfee Show that a procedure on his pinky toe remains a possibility. "We're hoping to avoid surgery obviously, but it'd be so minor that I wouldn't miss any time," Rodgers said. "I could have the surgery on Monday or Tuesday and play on Sunday."
Analysis: The Packers have hit their bye week, and Rodgers himself enters it with a broken toe that he's played on for three straight contests. The team will evaluate his health either later this week or early next week with the hope that rest and treatment will get his toe back to 100 percent. At that point, a decision will be made on whether surgery is the correct course of action. Whatever Rodgers and the Packers decide to do, there seems to be no worry about the quarterback suiting up for their next…read more

Rodgers doesn't plan to undergo surgery on his fractured left pinky toe while the Packers are on bye Week 13, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rodgers has been hindered by the toe injury in each of his three games since returning from the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he's hopeful that the toe will have time to heal and improve during the bye week. While the quarterback hasn't ruled out having a procedure at a later time, his decision to forgo surgery for the time being puts him in line to play when Green Bay returns to action Dec. 12 against the Bears.

Rodgers completed 28 of 45 passes for 307 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 36-28 win over the Rams. He added two rushes for zero yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Rodgers marched the Packers offense up and down the field for much of the game. He accounted for all of the team's offensive touchdowns, the first of which came on the ground as he rolled out to the right and juked past Jalen Ramsey from one yard away.

Battles through toe injury
Rodgers (toe) completed 23 of 33 pass attempts for 385 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 34-31 loss to Minnesota.
Analysis: Rodgers entered the contest nursing what was described as a painful toe injury, but you wouldn't have been able to tell by looking at his dominant stat line. That doesn't mean the star quarterback's toe won't be an issue moving forward, as the affected foot was stepped on before halftime. After the game Rodgers stated that the injury is "a little worse than turf toe" and will likely remain an issue until he can rest it on Green Bay's Week 13 bye, ESPN's Rob Demovsky reports. The 37-year-old…read more

Will start, despite painful injury
Rodgers remains on track to start Sunday's game against the Vikings, but he'll do so while playing through a painful toe injury that he'll likely contend with for the remainder of the season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rodgers appeared to pick up the injury in last week's 17-0 win over the Seahawks after he had sat out the Packers' previous contest Week 9 against the Chiefs while he was on the reserve/COVID-19 list. The Packers withheld Rodgers from practices Wednesday and Thursday to give him a chance to heal up from the injury, and while he returned to the field Friday as a limited participant, he took only about 15 reps, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Green Bay is hopeful that its upcoming Week 13 bye…read more

Removed from injury report
Rodgers (toe) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Minnesota.
Analysis: Rodgers and coach Matt LaFleur have both already said the quarterback would start Sunday's game despite missing practice Wednesday and Thursday. Rodgers returned Friday as a limited participant, while WR Allen Lazard (shoulder) missed another session and is listed as doubtful.

Ready for start
Coach Matt LaFleur said Friday that Rodgers (toe) will start Sunday's game at Minnesota, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: There was never much doubt, especially after Rodgers returned to practice earlier Friday. It's his first practice since Nov. 1, as he spent time on the COVID-19 list earlier this month and then missed Wednesday and Thursday with a toe injury.

Returns to practice
Rodgers (toe) returned to practice Friday and remains on track to play in Sunday's game in Minnesota, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Between a COVID-19 absence and a toe injury, Rodgers hasn't practiced since Nov. 1. He already said he'll "definitely" play in Sunday's game, and the return to practice Friday backs it up. The question now is if the Packers give him a game designation on their Friday injury report.

No practice Thursday
Rodgers (toe) was a spectator at Thursday's practice, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodgers hasn't logged an on-field practice rep since Nov. 1, the result of a stay on the reserve/COVID-19 list and a toe injury. The latter is impacting his activity level this week, but as he told Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette on Wednesday, Rodgers is "definitely playing Sunday" in Minnesota. Whether or not Rodgers heads into the weekend with an injury designation remains to be seen, though.

Rodgers didn't practice Wednesday due to a toe injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: A number of Packers veterans received maintenance days for Wednesday's walk-through session.

Not practicing Wednesday
Rodgers wasn't present at the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Rodgers made his return from a one-game absence this past Sunday against the Seahawks after a bout with COVID-19. The Packers didn't mention that he picked up any sort of injury during the team's 17-0 win, but Demovsky hinted Rodgers could be dealing with a toe issue. Rodgers also may be getting the day off for maintenance purposes, so his listing on Wednesday's practice report will be of keen interest.

Quiet but sufficient in return
Rodgers completed 23 of 37 pass attempts for 292 yards and one interception against Seattle on Sunday.
Analysis: Rodgers dealt with a couple untimely drops and seemed to have trouble getting on the same page with some pass catchers -- tight end Josiah Deguara in particular -- but fortunately for the Packers, the opposing quarterback (Russell Wilson) was wildly ineffective and Green Bay was able to eventually lean on its AJ Dillon-led run game to secure the win. Rodgers will need to be sharper at Minnesota in Week 11.

Officially set for Sunday
Rodgers was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list and will start Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.
Analysis: No surprise here as it was reported earlier Saturday the star quarterback would be good to go in the pivotal matchup against the Seahawks. Rodgers curiously did get put on the injury report due to a toe injury despite never taking the field over the last 10 days, but since he doesn't carry any sort of game status designation, it's a comical moot point.

Likely to be activated for Week 10
Rodgers is expected to be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list and thus will be eligible to play Sunday against the Seahawks, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Packers have until 4 p.m. ET to activate Rodgers from the reserve/COVID-19 list, and the star quarterback has evidently remained asymptomatic and has passed protocols to this point and has already returned to the Packers' practice facilities Saturday. The reigning NFL MVP appears to be on pace to play Sunday after a one-game absence, with his impending return expected to result in Jordan Love moving to the bench.

Appears on track for Week 10
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Thursday that Rodgers (illness) has continued to take part in virtual meetings this week and remains on track to start Sunday against the Seahawks, provided the quarterback "checks out well" when eligible to return from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: During his appearance Tuesday on "The Pat McAfee Show," Rodgers was optimistic that he would clear all COVID-19-related protocols prior to Sunday's game, and the fact that LaFleur expressed similar sentiments is a reassuring sign. Even so, due to his status as an unvaccinated player who tested positive for the virus, Rodgers will need to pass a cardiac screen and exhibit improved symptoms at the conclusion of his 10-day isolation period Saturday in order to play the following day. Rodgers said…read more

Confident in playing Week 10
Rodgers (illness) said Tuesday during his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" that he's confident he'll clear all necessary COVID-19 protocols in order to play Sunday against the Seahawks. "I believe there's a health hurdle -- movement, sweating and getting into it and making sure my body, especially my heart -- is fine with physical exertion," Rodgers said, when asked about any potential barriers to him playing this weekend.
Analysis: Since Rodgers is following the protocol for unvaccinated players, he won't be eligible to return to the Packers' facility any earlier than Saturday, 10 days after he initially tested positive for the virus. Based on Rodgers' comments, he doesn't seem to be exhibiting any symptoms of the virus, but in order to be eligible to play, he'll still need to turn in consecutive negative test results at least 24 hours apart by the end of the 10-day period. Because of the timing of his placement on the…read more

Green Bay will place Rodgers on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: After playing without Davante Adams due to a positive test for the virus last Thursday in Arizona, Green Bay will be without the reigning league MVP in Week 9 for the same reason. Head coach Matt LaFleur mentioned Wednesday that Rodgers "won't be available this week" and doesn't know how long the quarterback will be sidelined.

Out Week 9, could sit Week 10, too
Rodgers (illness), who won't be eligible to play Sunday against the Chiefs after informing teammates Wednesday that he tested positive for COVID-19, could also be at risk of missing the Packers' Week 10 game against the Seahawks on Nov. 14 due to his status as an unvaccinated player, Ian Rapoport and Mike Garofolo of NFL Network report.
Analysis: Though Rodgers told Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com and other Green Bay media Aug. 26 that he was "immunized," that evidently didn't equate to him being vaccinated. Per NFL COVID-19 protocols, unvaccinated players who test positive for the virus are required to complete a 10-day isolation period and aren't eligible to return until they're no longer exhibiting symptoms. Assuming Wednesday counts as the first day of Rodgers' isolation period, he won't be cleared to rejoin the team before at least Sat.,…read more

Overcomes personnel shortage
Rodgers completed 22 of 37 passes for 184 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 24-21 win over the Cardinals on Thursday night. He also rushed twice for three yards.
Analysis: Playing without top wideouts Davante Adams and Allen Lazard due to their placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Rodgers faced an uphill battle against an undefeated Cardinals team and persevered. The veteran QB worked around the makeshift receiving corps by targeting running back Aaron Jones a team-high 11 times, and he also leveraged his extensive rapport with veteran Randall Cobb into a pair of second-half passing touchdowns.

Rodgers completed 27 of 35 passes for 274 yards and three touchdowns against Washington on Sunday, adding two carries for 17 yards.
Analysis: The contest was somewhat close in the first half, but Rodgers had his grip on the game the whole time and steadily applied more pressure as time passed, throwing a clean game and involving a variety of targets to lead Green Bay to a comfortable 24-10 win.

Analysis: Rodgers started slowly with a scoreless first quarter before notching his first of two touchdown throws on a one-yard shovel pass to Allen Lazard early in the second quarter. The future Hall of Famer would go on to lead a 10-play, 90-yard march in the third quarter that culminated in a 12-yard scoring toss to Aaron Jones, and Rodgers capped off the fantasy-friendly effort with a six-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter that saw him get just inside the right pylon and then jaw some with…read more

His first touchdown came on a 12-yarder to tailback AJ Dillon, then Rodgers floated a fade to favorite Davante Adams for a five-yard score before halftime. He'd often go back to Adams in the second half and overtime, at one point completing a 59-yard bomb that helped Adams amass a career-best 206 yards on the day.

The future Hall of Famer connected with Randall Cobb on scoring tosses of 23 yards and one yard, the latter the milestone throw in the latter portion of the third quarter.

Analysis: Rodgers led an improbable drive with 37 seconds left in the contest to put Mason Crosby in position to hit the 51-yard winning kick. The superstar quarterback has looked like just that over the last two contests after a horrid Week 1 performance that had many questioning his abilities and commitment to the Packers.

Rodgers completed 22 of 27 passes for 255 yards and four touchdowns in Monday night's 35-17 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Rodgers bounced back from a poor Week 1 performance to throw nearly as many touchdowns as incompletions. The reigning MVP's volume was limited in the first half as Aaron Jones was established as Green Bay's centerpiece, yet Rodgers still found his tailback with a couple short scores early on.

Awful Week 1 performance
Rodgers completed 15 of 28 passes for 133 yards with two interceptions in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Maybe all that time Rodgers missed while deciding whether he wanted to return to Green Bay for another season had an impact after all. The 37-year-old threw only five INTs all of last year and went the entire 2018 campaign getting picked off only twice, but Rodgers was intercepted on consecutive drives in the second half Sunday to squash any hope of a comeback.

Week 1 moved to Florida
Rodgers and the Packers will play their Week 1 game against the Saints in Jacksonville after the contest was moved from New Orleans due to the impact of Hurricane Ida, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: The Packers will avoid a true road game, though Rodgers might have been looking forward to slinging the ball around in a dome environment, where he owns a career 8.3 yards per attempt and 64:12 TD:INT. In any case, he'll head to Jacksonville to face the Saints before returning to Green Bay to host the Lions on "Monday Night Football" in Week 2. The Packers recently placed star left tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) on the PUP list, but their offense otherwise appears healthy heading into Week 1.

Head coach Matt LaFleur said Tuesday that Rodgers "will 'most likely not' play during the preseason," according to Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official website.
Analysis: Rodgers missed some offseason work amid a dispute with management, but he has taken part in every practice session since training camp began, and the Packers don't see a need to expose Rodgers -- who will be entering his 17th season -- to a potential injury.

In any case, Rodgers -- who previously expressed frustration with the organization -- is in the fold and currently practicing with the team in training camp.

Analysis: This was the anticipated outcome at this point, but it's now official with Green Bay's minicamp underway. It remains to be seen how things will play out between Rodgers and the Packers, but it will likely be Jordan Love and Blake Bortles seeing most of the reps with the first-team offense in his absence.

Not expecting trade
Rodgers expects to stay with the Packers for 2021, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports. "I don't think that there's any reason why I wouldn't be back, but there's not many absolutes in this business," Rodgers said Tuesday.
Analysis: While an MVP award may not be enough to stop trade rumors, it doesn't sound like 2021 will mark the beginning of the Jordan Love era in Green Bay. Packers CEO Mark Murphy was emphatic earlier this week when a radio host asked him about the QB situation, saying "there's no way in heck Aaron is not gonna be on the Packers," per NFL.com. That doesn't necessarily mean Rodgers will stay with the Packers through the end of his contract in 2023, but he'll likely stay put for at least one more season.

Throws for 346 yards in loss
Rodgers completed 33 of 48 passes for 346 yards, three touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 31-26 loss to the Buccaneers in the NFC Championship Game.
Analysis: As has been the case for the entirety of the season, Rodgers played at an MVP level and nearly led the Packers back from an 18-point deficit. He hit on several big plays to Marquez Valdes-Scantling, connecting for a 50-yard touchdown early in the second quarter as well as gains of 29 and 24 yards. Rodgers' other two scores came from eight and two yards, respectively. His only glaring error came just before halftime, when he threw an interception that ultimately led to a Buccaneers touchdown.…read more

Three TDs in playoff win
Rodgers completed 23 of 36 pass attempts for 296 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' divisional-round win over the Rams. He also added a rushing touchdown.
Analysis: Rodgers made the strong Rams' defense look ordinary in the win, completing five pass for more than 20 yards. He regularly extended plays when pressure got through the line, including a 33-yard completion to Robert Tonyan just before halftime. Rodgers also delivered a perfect, game-clinching strike to Allen Lazard over the middle of the field in the fourth quarter for a 58-yard touchdown. He and the Packers will now await their opponent in the NFC Championship Game, but will be hosting either…read more

Clinches top seed with four TDs
Rodgers completed 19 of 24 passes for 240 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 35-16 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Rodgers threw three touchdowns in the first half and could've had another deep one to start the second if not for a drop. Although Chicago failed to secure a couple would-be interceptions, Rodgers once again got the best of his long-time divisional foe, locking up the NFC's top seed in the process. At 37 years old, Rodgers set a new Packers franchise record with 48 passing touchdowns versus just five interceptions and added another three scores on the ground as well. That massive production…read more

Strikes for four scores
Rodgers completed 21 of 25 pass attempts for 231 yards, four touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 40-14 win over the Titans. He added 19 yards on three carries.
Analysis: Rodgers was in his element on a snowy night at Lambeau Field under the bright lights of Sunday Night Football. While the veteran gunslinger did throw his fifth interception of the season, his four incompletions marked a new low for 2020. The 36-year-old currently sits north of a 70 percent completion rate for the first time in his career while also eclipsing the 4,000-yard mark for the ninth time over 11 full seasons. With 44 touchdowns to the aforementioned five picks, Rodgers has put himself…read more

Can't maintain typical efficiency
Rodgers completed 20 of his 29 pass attempts for 143 yards and one touchdown in Week 15 against the Panthers. He added five rushes for 26 yards and another touchdown on the ground.
Analysis: Rodgers was in rhythm early and led the Packers to touchdowns on each of their first two drives. He capped the first with a one-yard touchdown toss to Robert Tonyan before rushing into the end zone for a five-yard touchdown on Green Bay's second drive. However, Rodgers wouldn't reach the end zone again and took to the air only 10 times in the second half after building a three-possession lead. The Packers will likely be in for a more competitive game in Week 16 against the Titans, which should…read more

Another masterful showing Week 14
Rodgers completed 26 of 33 pass attempts for 290 yards and three touchdowns, adding six carries for 13 yards and a rushing TD during Sunday's 31-24 win against the Lions.
Analysis: After Detroit managed to keep the game tied through two quarters, Rodgers led the Packers to a combined 17 points over Green Bay's first three drives of the second half. In doing so, the eight-time Pro Bowler helped his team secure a second consecutive NFC North crown. Rodgers also currently has Green Bay situated as the conference's top seed, and it's hard to argue his 39:4 TD:INT isn't of MVP level. The 10-3 Packers prepare to host the sliding Panthers on Saturday night.

Reaches 400 career TDs
Rodgers completed 25 of 34 passes for 295 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: It was another surgical performance for Rodgers, who found Robert Tonyan on a 25-yard TD late in the second quarter sandwiched between a pair of red-zone touchdowns to Davante Adams. The second score to Adams was also a record setter, as Rodgers reached 400 career touchdown passes faster than any other player in NFL history. He'll look to bolster his MVP case further, and get the Packers closer to another NFC North title, in Week 14 against a very vulnerable Lions secondary.

Four more scores outdoors
Rodgers completed 21 of 29 pass attempts for 211 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 41-25 victory over Chicago.
Analysis: Rodgers methodically dismantled one of the league's best pass defenses in the national spotlight, putting the game seemingly out of reach with three touchdowns on the Packers' first three drives. The future Hall of Famer also reached 50,000 career passing yards, becoming just the 11th quarterback to ever reach that milestone. The 36-year-old has been on an absolute tear this season -- outside of an anomalous ugly outing against Tampa Bay in Week 6 -- completing 69 percent of his passes for…read more

Tacks on three more touchdowns
Rodgers completed 27 of 38 pass attempts for 311 yards, three touchdowns and one interception in Week 11 against the Colts.
Analysis: Rodgers put together another impressive performance, turning in his third consecutive game with at least 300 passing yards and three or more total touchdowns. He did make a few mistakes, most notably a mishandled snap on the team's first drive and an interception later in the first quarter. However, he was strong from there, slinging touchdowns of 25, five and four yards. Things may be a bit more difficult for Rodgers in Week 12 in what will likely be a slow-paced matchup against the Bears.

Tallies three total TDs in win
Rodgers completed 24 of 34 pass attempts with 325 yards, two passing touchdowns and an interception during Sunday's 24-20 win against the Jaguars. He added three rushes for a total of four yards, including a five-yard touchdown run.
Analysis: The MVP frontrunner continues to churn out multi-TD performances, with Sunday's outing marking his fourth in a row with at least three total scores. Rodgers has also exceeded 300 passing yards in back-to-back weeks, as well as four total times on the season, already equaling his total from 16 appearances during 2019. Rodgers' second-quarter TD jaunt was an anomaly, marking just his second rushing score since the start of last season. With an incredible 26:3 TD:INT on the year, Rodgers readies…read more

Thrives against short-handed Niners
Rodgers completed 25 of 31 passes for 305 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 34-17 win over the 49ers on Thursday night. He also rushed once for seven yards.
Analysis: Four days after the Packers suffered a surprising home loss to the Vikings, Rodgers helped ensure there would be no second straight upset. He got off to a hot start and never looked back, hitting Davante Adams for a 36-yard touchdown to cap off a crisp opening 75-yard drive and adding scoring tosses of one and 52 yards to Marcedes Lewis and Marquez Valdes-Scantling before halftime. Rodgers would hit MVS again for another score early in the second half, giving the perennial Pro Bowl signal…read more

Falls short against Vikings
Rodgers completed 27 of 41 passes for 291 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: All three TD passes went to Davante Adams, but Minnesota's Dalvin Cook was even better with four scores of his own, and Rodgers fumbled after a sack on the final play of the game while trying to engineer a game-winning drive. He's thrown for at least three touchdowns in five of seven starts this season en route to a stellar 20:2 TD:INT, but Rodgers could face stiffer opposition in Week 9 from the 49ers' secondary.

Picks apart Texans
Rodgers completed 23 of 34 pass attempts for 283 yards and four touchdowns in Week 7 against the Texans.
Analysis: Rodgers led the Packers to four touchdowns on their first six possessions, throwing for a score on each occasion. He connected with Davante Adams for a 45-yard touchdown late in the third quarter but otherwise worked the team steadily down the field for three scores within the five-yard line. It was a much more characteristic performance for Rodgers, who struggled in a Week 6 matchup against Tampa Bay. He and Green Bay will take on the Vikings in another exploitable matchup in Week 8.

Has game to forget vs. Bucs
Rodgers completed 16 of 35 pass attempts for 160 yards and a pair of interceptions while adding 14 yards on two carries during Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Rodgers completed eight of his first 12 passes while leading a pair of scoring drives to start the game, but he fell on hard times soon after. He threw a pick-six on the third drive of the game and followed that up with another interception. The veteran never looked right the rest of the way, as he finished with a dismal 46 percent completion rate. Rodgers, who was also sacked four times, came into this one with a stellar 13:0 TD:INT and will have a chance to bounce back next Sunday against the…read more

Throws four scores in victory
Rodgers completed 27 of 33 passes for 327 yards and four touchdowns in Monday night's 30-16 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Rodgers continued his superb start to the season without his top two wideouts, Davante Adams (hamstring) and Allen Lazard (abdomen). With them sidelined, Green Bay featured tailbacks Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams prominently in the passing game, with Jones catching Rodgers' first touchdown, but it was tight end Robert Tonyan who stole the show. The little-known pass catcher was on the receiving end of each of Rodgers' other three touchdowns, resulting in another high-scoring showing from the…read more

Remains flawless on SNF
Rodgers completed 21 of 32 pass attempts for 283 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 37-30 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Rodgers was in vintage form under the bright lights, picking apart a Saints defense that is no slouch against opposing quarterbacks. The 36-year-old has thrown nine touchdowns while committing no turnovers through the first three games of the season. His 8.4 yards per attempt is the highest it has been since his 2014 MVP campaign. Injuries and Father Time seemed to have Rodgers on a gradual decline over the past few seasons, but the future Hall of Famer looks healthy and comfortable in his…read more

Two TDs in comeback win
Rodgers completed 18 of 30 passes for 240 yards and two touchdowns while adding two carries for 12 yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Rodgers helped his team dig out of a 14-3 hole with a seven-yard touchdown to Aaron Jones followed by an 11-yard score to Robert Tonyan to take a 17-14 lead into halftime, then Jones and the defense took over in the second half. With Green Bay dominating on the ground, Rodgers' numbers took a step back after he threw for 364 yards and four touchdowns in the season opener. The veteran quarterback's week-to-week contributions will vary due to Green Bay's reliance on the ground game, but he's at…read more

Starts off season in stellar form
Rodgers completed 32 of 44 passes for 364 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions in the Packers' 43-34 win over the Vikings on Sunday. He also rushed once for two yards.
Analysis: The perennial Pro Bowler was in pristine, vintage form to kick off the new campaign, shrugging off the lack of a consistent No. 2 receiver and proven reliable primary tight end to repeatedly eviscerate the Vikings secondary. Rodgers connected with seven different Packers, and the majority of his attention unsurprisingly focused on Davante Adams, whom he hit on 14 occasions for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Rodgers was able to do damage at varying depths of target as well, as his scoring tosses…read more

Same old, same old in camp
Rodgers has looked like his usual self during Packers training camp, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodgers may not have the receiving depth he'd like, but if his on-field play of late is any indication he hasn't lost a step. At Sunday's practice in particular, he connected with Davante Adams and Jake Kumerow on back-to-back 40-plus-yard touchdowns before closing the session with a two-minute drill that concluded with a successful 47-yard field goal by Mason Crosby. Due to the makeup of the skill-position ranks, the Packers may run more than ever for a Rodgers-led squad with Aaron Jones,…read more

Hasn't talked with GM yet
Talking to the media late Thursday night, Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said he hadn't spoken with Rodgers about the team's decision to use a first-round pick on fellow quarterback Jordan Love, Olivia Reiner of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Rodgers likely was hoping for a draft pick that would help him win games in 2020. Instead, he saw the Packers draft his potential successor at No. 26 overall, though Gutekunst believes it's too early to say that Love will eventually replace Rodgers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports. There's an obvious disconnect between the words and the actions, so this should be an ongoing storyline throughout spring and summer. Rodgers has four seasons remaining on his contract, and while the…read more

Racks up numbers in loss
Rodgers completed 31 of 39 passes for 326 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions during the Packers' 37-20 loss to the 49ers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game. He also netted zero yards on his sole rush and committed three fumbles, losing one.
Analysis: Rodgers' final numbers were more than acceptable from a fantasy perspective, but they were largely the byproduct of a game script that called for the Packers to consistently put the ball up throughout the second half in response to a 27-0 halftime deficit. The 36-year-old signal caller made do with the thin receiving corps he was saddled with this past regular season, one that had no consistently viable second option behind Adams.

Throws two TD passes vs. Seahawks
Rodgers completed 16 of 27 pass attempts for 243 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 28-23 divisional-round win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Rodgers completed just 59 percent of his pass attempts, but he averaged a healthy 9.0 yards per attempt thanks to some big gains through the air. The majority of his damage was done when targeting Davante Adams, who piled up 160 yards while reaching the end zone in the first and third quarters. Rodgers could be busier in next week's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers, but he could face a tough task against one of the league's best defensive units.

Leads Packers to 13th win
Rodgers completed 27 of 55 pass attempts for 323 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in the team's Week 17 victory over Detroit.
Analysis: Rodgers and the Packers got off to a slow start, falling behind the Lions by a score of 17-3. However, the veteran quarterback threw for 233 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the second half to earn a dramatic, last-second win. Though Rodgers appears unlikely to ever replicate his 40-touchdown campaigns, he closed the regular season with a pristine 26:4 TD:INT ratio and surpassed 4,000 passing yards for the third time in his last four seasons.

Underwhelming numbers in win
Rodgers completed 26 of 40 passes for 216 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Packers' 23-10 win over the Vikings on Monday night. He also netted minus-3 yards on his three rushes and completed a two-point conversion pass.
Analysis: Rodgers had another underwhelming night from a fantasy perspective, but of overriding importance was the fact he helped the Packers clinch the NFC North crown and remain alive for the NFC's No. 1 seed in the process. Rodgers failed to throw a touchdown pass for the third time in 2019 -- although he did have a scoring throw in the form of a two-point conversion pass to Geronimo Allison -- but he extended his interception-less streak to nine games despite a season-low 48.5 percent completion…read more

Rodgers completed 16 of 33 pass attempts for 203 yards and one touchdown Sunday against the Bears. He also gained 23 yards on three carries in the 21-13 win.
Analysis: Rodgers struggled mightily as he completed less than half his passes and averaged 6.2 yards per attempt. He connected early and often with Davante Adams, striking gold on a 29-yard touchdown connection in the first quarter, but the veteran quarterback played the role of game manager for much of the afternoon. This poor effort comes on the heels of a similar performance last week, and Rodgers has now failed to top the 250-yard mark in six straight games. The Vikings have been vulnerable in the…read more

Surprisingly modest numbers in win
Rodgers completed 18 of 28 passes for 195 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Packers' 20-15 win over the Redskins on Sunday. He also rushed five times for 16 yards and lost a fumble.
Analysis: Rodgers got his day off to a strong start before cooling off, and Aaron Jones ultimately was as responsible for helping keep the chains moving with 134 rushing yards and a team-high 58 more yards through the air. The perennial Pro Bowler averaged a relatively modest 7.0 yards per attempt and took four sacks from an aggressive Redskins front.

Rodgers completed 21 of 33 passes for 243 yards and four touchdowns during Sunday's 31-13 win over the Giants. He added 24 yards on three carries.
Analysis: The field was covered in snow in the Meadowlands, so conventional wisdom might have leaned toward a ground-and-pound game. Rodgers and the Packers went against that early with two passing touchdowns on the team's first two drives, including a deep 37-yard shot to Allen Lazard off of play action. The two touchdowns were as many as Rodgers had mustered in his previous three contests combined.

Rodgers completed 20 of 33 pass attempts for 104 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-8 loss to San Francisco.
Analysis: The 49ers' defensive line overwhelmed the Packers' front, constantly pressuring Rodgers and forcing the quarterback to resort to dump-off passes or run the risk of being sacked (five sacks). The elite arm picked up midseason steam against some soft opponents, but he's come back down to earth against three tough pass defenses (166.0 passing yards and two total touchdowns over the last three weeks).

He took a back seat to the running game in the red zone, handing off to Aaron Jones for three short touchdowns to account for the majority of the scoring on the day.

Struggles against Chargers
Rodgers completed 23 of 35 passes for 161 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-11 loss to the Chargers. He also ran in a two-point conversion.
Analysis: His 4.6 YPA was his worst performance of the season, and Rodgers' yardage total was also his lowest of 2019. The Chargers dominated the game by keeping the Packers offense off the field with a strong running attack, and when Rodgers did get the ball, Nick Bosa and Melvin Ingram gave him little time to find a receiver. Rodgers will get a chance to rebound next week against a Carolina defense that just gave up over 300 passing yards to Ryan Tannehill.
