CLEVELAND — The Packers will face off against the Browns this weekend without all-world quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who hasn’t played since breaking his collarbone almost two months ago. But if you think that’s giving Cleveland solace this weekend, you’re wrong.
“When you run against a different quarterback other than Aaron Rodgers playing Green Bay’s definitely a load off your shoulder, but you have to still respect the player that's playing on Sunday,” linebacker Christian Kirksey said. “We’ll game-plan him well, and we will be ready to play him.”
That player is third-year quarterback Brett Hundley, who’s guided the Packers to a 2-4 record in Rodgers’ absence (including an overtime win last weekend against the Buccaneers).
