Aaron Rodgers not yet cleared, will practice

Dec 03, 2013

Packers HC Mike McCarthy: Aaron Rodgers has not been cleared yet. Will practice Wednesday in limited fashion. Have not ruled him out for Week 14.

Fantasy Impact:

Matt Flynn will take first team reps to prep for Week 14, so it doesn't seem like Rodgers will play, but he's not ruled out and continues to be limited. The bit of good news to take out of this is it doesn't seem like the Packers plan to put Rodgers on IR, at least right now. In fact, McCarthy strongly denied that report and said when Rodgers is cleared he will play. Rodgers also said he wanted to get back out on the field when he is cleared. He's worth keeping on your roster through the playoffs at this point, but his chances look pretty slim for getting on the field in Week 14.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
