Injuries: Aaron Rodgers practices, still questionable
Around The NFL Staff
Print
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgersreturned to practice Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported.
The quarterback has been dealing with a left knee sprain that he suffered in last week's win over the Chicago Bears. The Packers plan to see how his knee feels on Sunday morning before making a final decision on his playing status. Packers coach Mike McCarthy told Pelissero that the Packers have been game planning all week under the premise that Rodgers would be playing
Rodgers suffered the injury during the Packers' 24-23 season-opening win over the Bears. After being carted off to the locker room, the two-time league MVP returned in the second half to rally the team back from a 17-0 deficit.
If he plays, it'll be interesting to see how much the injury will affect Rodgers' mobility and ability to put weight on his left leg -- factors that were visible yet mitigated by Rodgers against the Bears during what was one of the greatest performances of his career.
Packers wide receiver Davante Adams is listed as questionable with a shoulder injury.
Here are the other injuries we're monitoring in the run up to Sunday's games:
1. Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixonwill undergo an arthoscopic procedure on his knee on Saturday, sources told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo. A timeline for his recovery will be established after surgery. Mixon suffered the injury during Thursday's win over the Baltimore Ravens. Defensive end Michael Johnson is expected to miss a few weeks after suffering a knee injury during Thursday's game.
2. Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson wouldn't say whether he thought running back Darren Sproles would play Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Sproles has been dealing with a hamstring injury he suffered in Wednesday's practice.
3. Miami Dolphins guard Josh Sitton is out for the remainder of the season because of a torn rotator cuff, Rapoport reported. Dolphinsreceiver DeVante Parker (finger) was a full participant in practice and is listed as questionable.
4. Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is designated as questionable for Sunday vs. the New England Patriots. Jags coach Doug Marrone said the decision on whether Fournette will play could wait until game time.
5. Dallas Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory has been cleared from concussion protocol and is expected to practice today, per coach Jason Garrett. But Gregory is listed as doubtful on the injury report. Defensive tackle Datone Jones (knee) and safety Xavier Woods(hamstring) will not play vs. the Giants.
