Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who's missed six straight games with a broken collarbone, said he felt more like himself in practice last week. "I knew I was closer (to playing)," he said on his radio show, per the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "We’re sitting here with another 4-5 days of rest.”
Added Rodgers: "My hope is that I practice tomorrow and experience no setbacks mentally or physically and then go from there."
Rodgers is trying to get medically cleared to play Sunday vs. the Steelers. Green Bay controls its destiny in the NFC North, a big motivator for Rodgers to return. Rodgers said "there has to be some level of risk-reward conversation."
