Rodgers (calf) is expected to play Sunday against the Bears, but he may do so without taking any practice reps beforehand, ESPN's Rob Demovsky reports.
Rodgers has yet to practice this week, as he continues to nurse a right calf injury sustained last Sunday. That time off has allowed Rodgers to receive treatment and watch additional film, giving the Packers' coaching staff confidence that he'll be ready to face the Bears even if he doesn't take a single practice rep this week. Rodgers' official status will be determined later Friday, but fantasy owners can expect to have him available.
