Rodgers said that he would need to be "on the field two days before the game," and mentions he'd have to be on the field Tuesday of next week if he were to play in the team's Thanksgiving game against the Detroit Lions.
He's expected to miss this week's game against the Minnesota Vikings, but the Week 13 game is right n the cusp of his potential return. It's anybody's guess as to whether or not he'll be ready then, either way,
Fantasy Impact: Rodgers isn’t quite like every other quarterback in the league. It’s hard to imagine him feeling healthy an not playing due to a lack of practice two days prior, especially if the Packers lose a fourth consecutive game when they play the Vikings. That said, the words are straight from Rodgers and we at least have something to watch out for.
