New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was able to finish the game against the Minnesota Vikings despite a rough hit in the third quarter, but he is dealing with an injury.
New York Jets fans were holding their collective breath when Aaron Rodgers was twisted up during a hit against the Minnesota Vikings, but he somehow came right back out on the field after a penalty let the Jets keep the ball.
While Rodgers finished the game, which was a loss for New York after his third interception of the game ended a potential game-winning drive, he told reporters that he suffered a low ankle sprain on the hit, per NFL Network.
The severity of that sprain is unknown, but it wasn’t painful enough to come out of the game.
Rodgers’ leg bent very awkwardly during the third-down tackle in the third quarter, and he was in clear pain as he was seen crawling on the turf and grabbing at the back of his left leg.
