Biggest NFL story: Aaron Rodgers to return before the year-end

It may just be another breaking news for media outlet TMZ, but for the NFL fans, it’s the Christmas gift they didn’t know they needed. As per them, the quarterback should be cleared before the MetLife game on December 16. But the final decision on whether to include the 4x MVP in the squad or not remains entirely in the coaches’ hands.

Rodgers has been active about his comeback pretty much ever since he went inactive with the injury. Earlier, he also described the power of herbs and coffee to make the unthinkable happen for him. But still, it was a far cry at that point to claim his early return.

However, the mood changed in the Jets camp after his November 30 appearance at the training session. Everyone knew what the following update could have been about, and the fans hoped for the best. 2 weeks later, the hopes turned into reality.

If anyone claimed that Rodgers would play in the NFL again this year, probably no one would have believed. But Rodgers has truly defied medical science ever since getting injured during the Bills’ game on September 11. As explained by the man himself before, with the power of Chinese herbs, mushrooms, and coffee, he has made the unthinkable happen, cutting the fastest recorded time from 4 to 6 months to 3 months.

The Commanders game will be exactly on the 104th day since the season-opening Bills game. If Rodgers replaces Zach Wilson as the starter at MetLife, he’ll probably be the fastest professional athlete ever to record an Achilles-tear comeback. Certainly THE fastest ever in the NFL.
