BREAKING: Aaron Rodgers “Likely” To Be Medically Cleared To Return To Field Next Week

Aaron Rodgers just took another massive step forward into making an improbable comeback.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Rodgers will “likely” be medically cleared to play as early as Christmas Eve against the Washington Commanders next week.

Whether or not he plays will be heavily determined this weekend when the Jets take on the Miami Dolphins.

Rodgers tore his achilles in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills. He underwent surgery and has been making some insane strides towards returning to the field and could be right on the cusp on that miraculous comeback.

If the Jets (5-8) defeat the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, Rodgers will be pushing hard to play next week. But if the Jets lose to the Dolphins, the Jets will likely keep the 39-year-old off the field as the Jets will likely be mathematically eliminated with a loss to Miami on Sunday.
