FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Aaron Rodgers' improbable comeback from a torn Achilles tendon has taken the next step.
The New York Jets opened the 21-day practice window for the quarterback on Wednesday — exactly 11 weeks after he had surgery — with Rodgers cleared for some football activities.
Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon four snaps into his debut with the Jets on Sept. 11 and had surgery two days later.
Sure, but that's OK. That's his ‘why’ — that's why he's (doing it).
“I promise Aaron is not going to do anything that puts himself in harm’s way if he's not healthy to play,” Saleh said.
