Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers says he plans on playing Sunday against the Chicago Bears after suffering a rib injury against the Philadelphia Eagles.
"I got good news with the scans yesterday. So, I plan on playing this week."
Fletcher Cox #91 of the Philadelphia Eagles sacks Aaron Rodgers #12 of the Green Bay Packers during the second quarter at Lincoln Financial Field on November 27, 2022 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. "There was an earlier shot in the game that kind of rattled the ribcage," Rodgers said Tuesday."And I was trying to stretch some things out at halftime a little bit and realized it probably wasn’t some kind of muscle injury. And I got hit again in the third quarter and was having a hard time breathing." Jordan Love — backup quarterback and former first-round draft pick — filled in for Rodgers the rest of the way, throwing a touchdown pass on nine attempts.

"I’m not shocked that he went out there and played well and had great poise. We see this on a daily basis. People might not necessarily agree with that, but I see it every day," Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said of Love. Fox News’ Scott Thompson contributed to this report
