Packers QB Aaron Rodgers will continue to deal with toe injury

Nov 23, 2021

Aaron Rodgers entered Sunday’s game with a toe injury. It was made worse when he had his foot stepped on in the first half.

The Packers quarterback revealed after the loss to the Vikings that his injury is “a little worse than turf toe” and “very, very painful.” He elaborated on that Tuesday when he had his regular appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.

Fantasy Impact:

Rodgers has a bone issue in his pinkie toe, the story said. Rodgers isn't the most mobile QB, but this certainly won't help. But the good news is Rodgers plans to keep playing through the injury, no matter how painful. The Packers have a bye in Week 13 which could help him for the stretch run.

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

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.

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.
