It was a devastating blow for Green Bay Packers fans when news broke that star quarterback Aaron Rodgers reportedly suffered a torn left Achilles tendon. According to an Associated Press source, the injury occurred during the Packers’ game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, December 13th.
The injury is a major setback for Rodgers and the Packers, who were already struggling with injuries to key players. Rodgers had been playing at an MVP level this season, leading the team to a 10-3 record and a spot in the playoffs.
The severity of the injury is still unknown, but it could mean that Rodgers will miss the remainder of the season. If that is the case, it would be a huge blow to the Packers’ playoff hopes. Backup quarterback Tim Boyle will likely take over the starting role in Rodgers’ absence.
Rodgers has been one of the most successful quarterbacks in NFL history, and his absence will be felt throughout the league. He has been an integral part of the Packers’ success over the past decade, and his leadership and skill have been instrumental in their success.
It is unclear what the future holds for Rodgers and the Packers, but for now, all fans can do is hope for a speedy recovery. The team will need to find a way to stay competitive without their star quarterback, but it won’t be easy.
