Just a week ago, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers declared he would consider surgery on his broken toe. Now Matt LaFleur is speaking out. The head coach doesn’t believe surgery will be necessary.

Munich – On the “Pat McAfee Show” last week, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had stated he was still considering whether or not to undergo surgery on his broken toe.

Now, following bye week, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur has also spoken out on the matter, revealing that he does not anticipate surgery.

“Not to my knowledge,” he said when asked if A-Rod would go under the knife, “I don’t think so. “

LaFleur doesn’t believe Rodgers will have surgery

Chead coach LaFleur elaborated on that, saying the team’s plan is for Rodgers to play in next weekend’s Sunday Night Game against the Chicago Bears even if he doesn’t practice during the week.

“I know he’s undergoing treatment and doing everything he can to be at 100 percent,” LaFleur said. “I think it’s still a process, like everything else, and we’ll see how far he is this week. Hopefully we can use him in training, but if not, we have great confidence in his ability to play at a high level. “

In addition to Rodgers, backup quarterback Jordan Love is also currently questionable for the NFC North leaders. The Packers had to place the youngster, who is fully immunised, on the Covid list.

Love must now isolate himself, but can return to the team if he remains symptom-free and has two negative tests at least 24 hours apart.
