The Facts: Already playing through a broken thumb, Rodgers is now dealing with a rib injury that ended his Sunday evening early. Rodgers left Sunday night's 40-33 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the third quarter and did not return. He was replaced by Jordan Love.
Diehards Line:
Though announced by the team as an oblique injury, Rodgers clarified he had injured ribs when he spoke to reporters after the game. Upon his exit, he went to the locker room for X-rays which he said were unclear as to whether he had sustained any fractured ribs. He'll undergo an MRI on Monday, and if tests come back negative, he intends to play in Week 13. At 4-8, the Packers' postseason odds are long, but Rodgers said he wants to keep going as long as he physically can. "As long as we're mathematically alive, I'd like to be out there," Rodgers said.
