Notes: Aaron Rodgers plans to play Detroit Lions despite clinching No. 1 seed in NFC

The final matchup of the 2021-22 Detroit Lions season is upon us and it’s up in the air what that game will look like.

In just under a week the Lions will face their final opponent, the Green Bay Packers. Despite clinching the No. 1 seed in the NFC and therefore having nothing tangible left to play for, quarterback Aaron Rodgers says he’s still planning to suit up against Detroit.

Per NFL.com’s Kevin Patra, after bulldozing the Minnesota Vikings and securing that top spot in the NFC, Rodgers told reporters he’s expecting to play — even while dealing with a fractured pinky toe.
