Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had a legitimate reason for pulling out of the Pro Bowl.
Rodgers underwent knee surgery within days of the team's Jan. 17 playoff loss to the Arizona Cardinals, he confirmed to ESPN on Friday night.
One source described the surgery as a minor scope and a "cleanup of an old injury."
Rodgers told ESPN that he is "doing well" and "recovering on schedule."
Fantasy Impact:
This shouldn't affect his availability for offseason activities or his overall health heading into the 2016 season.
