Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is hoping to play in Sunday's key divisional matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, though his status remains up in the air:
Ian Rapoport#Packers coach Mike McCarthy told reporters he’s still gathering info on Aaron Rodgers’ knee, and I’m told, that includes seeing if the swelling goes down and how it responds. Rodgers is clearly pushing to play, but too early to declare he can do so.
Rodgers suffered a left knee injury in the second quarter of Sunday night's 24-23 comeback win over the Chicago Bears at Lambeau Field and was eventually carted to the locker room for further examination.
