Although Aaron Rodgers‘ fans are currently saddened by his injury, could there be good news on the horizon for them? Rodgers recently broke his silence during an appearance on the Pat McAfee show, and his revelations might just rekindle hope among his fans. None can forget the nightmare of that Monday night football game when Rodgers suffered a torn Achilles tendon on the fourth play of his debut with the New York Jets.
He got injured while trying to evade Buffalo Bills edge rusher Leonard Floyd, who had breezed past left tackle Duane Brown to sack the Jets’ quarterback. Brown’s attempted cut block had failed to slow Floyd down on the play. However, as fate would have it for A-Rod, the injury occurred, and he managed to have a successful recovery later. But, before the hopes could die, Aaron Rodgers surely has some plans for his comeback.

Will Aaron Rodgers come back for the playoffs?
Ever since Aaron Rodgers got injured, there has been much speculation about his potential comeback, especially considering he’s 39 years old. However, as the saying goes, inspiration and determination can breathe life into any hope, and the same can be said for A-Rod this time. During a recent episode of ‘The Pat McAfee Show,’ the former NFL punter Pat McAfee asked him directly about the possibility of coming back, asking, “Are you coming back for the playoffs this year?”
The 4-time MVP responded, “I’m not gonna make any of those statements. I don’t feel like that’s that’s fair to myself, I’m just….” He was interrupted by former NFL player and McAfee’s co-host, A.J. Hawk, who asked, “Is it a possibility?” To this, Rodgers smiled and replied, “I think as Kevin Garnett said, anything’s possible.” This statement sent shockwaves through the room, shattering retirement rumors and indicating that he might make a potential return directly in the playoffs after 100 days. Although he made it clear that this recovery is a process indicating “interesting timetables on Achilles return“, so he will see what will happen next.
Furthermore, Rodgers also made a challenging statement aimed at his haters, highlighting his current level of motivation and strength.
