NFL Sundays are back! Here’s all the action from Week 1.
USA TODAY Sports
The Green Bay Packers are left to hold their breath on their star quarterback once again.
Aaron Rodgers left the Packers’ game Sunday against the Chicago Bears on a cart after taking a hit to his left knee in the second quarter.
Rodgers was listed as questionable to return. He was replaced by DeShone Kizer.
After taking a sack from Bears defensive end Roy Robertson-Harris, Rodgers appeared to limp before going to the medical tent for further evaluation.
Rodgers suffered a broken collarbone midway through the 2017 and played in just seven games. In August, he signed a four-year, $134 million extension that made him the highest-paid player in the NFL.
