Aaron Rodgers Injury Update: Will the Packers Legend Achieve Full Fitness Before Cowboys Clash?

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers is woefully out of form. The 38 YO top star missed another practice on Wednesday. Does that mean he is unlikely to play in the Sunday clash with the Cowboys? Fans have reasons to think so. The back-to-back MVP winner gave the practice a miss. This was after an injury on his right thumb. Notably, the injury isn’t new but has been carried on for more than a month.

The aggressive QB was injured in the final play against the Giants on October 9. The game was played in London. The diagnosis of the injury is not public yet. Because the top star and team are keeping secrecy over it. But one aspect worries a lot of fans. A-Rod has not been doing good while throwing the ball in the last few games. 

Aaron Rodgers is witnessing remarkably low

In the last four games, the NFL icon has not made the world talk with his play. He is ranked 29th among 35 qualified QBs in completion percentage (61.1) and also 26th in yards per attempt (6.3). 

His game stats for passer rating and interceptions are also low. As a result, the titanic athlete is not named in the list of top-performing QBs where Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are ruling the roost. 

What about the magnitude of the injury?

The top athlete is not taking his injury for granted. He is doing weekly treatment and rehab, and it will not be healed completely before November. The superstar will play only by nursing an injury. Meanwhile, the Packers meet the Cowboys next in a must-win clash on Sunday. A-Rod’s men with a 3-6 record are clearly the underdogs against America’s team, which have a 6-2 record.

At present, the top player has shown his pain in one or two plays. The thumb appears to be in some kind of pain after a collision. Could he have made a finer throw to Robert Tonyan last week if he was not injured? No one knows, because only Aaron Rodgers could truly identify the extent of his pain and its impact on his game.
