LAS VEGAS: New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers stated his purpose is to return from a torn Achilles tendon by mid-December, NBC’s Melissa Stark reported throughout the telecast of the Jets’ sport at Las Vegas on Sunday night time.
Rodgers had hinted not too long ago he hopes to return earlier than the top of the season, however that is probably the most particular he has been. He suffered what was regarded as a season-ending damage within the opener in opposition to the Buffalo Bills.
“He said, ‘I know it sounds insane, but you do a good surgery, you have a good patient, it makes this possible,’” Stark stated on the telecast.
However, Rodgers, who was on the sideline, advised Stark he “just wasn’t feeling it” about throwing passes throughout pregame warmups as he has the final a number of weeks.
Rodgers stated he has been engaged on a weight-limiting treadmill, jogging at 50% of his physique weight. His purpose this week is to extend it to 75%.
When requested after the Jets’ 16-12 loss to the Raiders, coach Robert Saleh stated, “If the doctors clear him, we’ll clear him.”
