Aaron Rodgers Returns To Practice Friday

12 months ago

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) will return to practice on Friday after taking Thursday off. He is alternating days as part of his rehab schedule with the team. The Jets opened Rodgers' 21-day practice window to be activated from Injured Reserve on Wednesday and he's been back on the field in a limited fashion. The 39-year-old has made a remarkable recovery after tearing his Achilles in the season opener, but Rodgers still isn't anywhere close to playing. In addition, Rodgers has said himself that he won't return later this year unless the Jets are in playoff contention. In a best-case scenario, the Jets end their losing streak in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons and win a few additional games to allow Rodgers a chance to return around Week 16. It's still a long shot. UDPATE: Rodgers has been ruled out for Week 13.
