Report: Packers' Aaron Rodgers active despite deep bone bruise, MCL sprain

-- The Green Bay Packers will have their starting quarterback in Aaron Rodgers active and available for Sunday's meeting with the Minnesota Vikings, however, details are beginning to emerge regarding his left knee injury.

According to Jay Glazer of FOX, Rodgers is dealing with a "very deep bone bruise" in his knee as well as an MCL sprain.

The latter contradicts an earlier report Sunday morning from ESPN's Adam Schefter saying Rodgers had no ligament damage, but Rodgers is reportedly still dealing with a lot of swelling in his knee.

The Packers monitored Rodgers closely throughout the week and gave him the entirety of it to prepare for the Vikings.
