Aaron Rodgers has been making a speedy recovery and shocking the whole NFL world with his progress. From handing over the crutches to supporting his side from the sideline, the footballer looks eager to join his team on the field. The Jets QB has recently been witnessed throwing passes on the ground, and now the latest update also points toward a probable game-ready Rodgers.

In the absence of the star QB, it was young Zach Wilson who had been trying his best to fill his shoes. While Wilson has been churning out incredible performances since the last two games, the addition of the senior QB will probably provide more stability to the New York side at the moment. Hence, eyes remain on any news coming our way from the Jets camp.

Rodgers is beating the odds with his swift recovery!

When the news of Rodgers’ Achilles Tear started making rounds, it was easily accompanied by the update of the footballer’s exit for the season. However, the star QB has astonished everyone with his relentless efforts to get back on the field as quickly as possible. Last month Rodgers was seen on the field throwing a couple of passes and just now MLFFootball shared a clip in which you can see 39-year-old Rodgers walking down the alley without any crutches, not even limping!

The swashbuckling QB is speculated to make his return in Thursday’s game against the Browns that will take place on the 28 of December. His presence will be an ease for the Jets side, providing them with a much-needed hand of experience during the crucial moments of the game.
