Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for 318 yards and a touchdown in Green Bay's 20-3 win over Tampa Bay Sunday, but was not on the field for the team's final drive while dealing with a calf injury. With the game well out of hand, backup Matt Flynn went in to take the final three kneel downs to give Green Bay the win.
Rodgers downplayed the injury after the game.
"I'll be okay for next week. [I] hurt my calf pretty good... Battled the flu the last few days," Rodgers said.
Rodgers injured himself in the first half when he was sacked awkardly, forcing him to lose the ball and turn it over.
Rodgers threw his first touchdown pass in seven quarters late in the fourth when he found Jordy Nelson from 1-yard out for the score. He and the Packers will look to clinch the division in Week 17 against the Lions.
