Aaron Rodgers has made himself a story by promising to return this season despite surgery to repair a torn Achilles he injured minutes into Week 1. His practice window opened 77 days after he went under the knife, and he's been on the field working with his teammates aiming to play again very soon.
While their Dec. 24 game against the Washington Commanders has been a target date for a return, there's been no official word if he'll actually be back this season. Even still, the work the New York Jets quarterback has put in has amazed his teammates and his head coach, Robert Saleh.
