Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers doesn't practice due to toe injury but will play vs. Los Angeles Rams

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Keeping Aaron Rodgers off his fractured toe was more important to the Packers this week than getting him on the practice field.

That's how coach Matt LaFleur approached the lead-up to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams at Lambeau Field.

Rodgers did not practice Friday, making a nonparticipant all week. A week earlier, he at least got a few reps in the Friday practice leading up to last Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings -- a game in which Rodgers started slowly but was nearly unstoppable after halftime, leading touchdown drives on every second-half possession.
