On the surface, the news that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers practiced on Wednesday seems positive, since he hasn’t been practicing on Wednesdays, due to a thumb injury. As he explained it to reporters, however, it’s still an issue.
“Well, I heard it was going to be just a jog-through, so I figured I might as well get down there and be around,” Rodgers said from the locker room. “I wish I could tell you it was feeling better. But it was more just the necessity of jog-through, and feel like my presence down there was kind of more important today than an hour of rehab.
