Rodgers’ comment on Wednesday acknowledging he has some concern about the injury worsening as the season goes on made headlines, even though Rodgers seemed to merely be acknowledging the obvious. He is still expected to start Sunday’s game at Washington, where he’ll continue to wear a protective knee brace.

Last week, Rodgers rehabbed on Wednesday and Thursday, then took part in Saturday’s light day-before-the-game practice. That appears to be the plan again this week.

“Last week was a waiting game to see if I could even play. Obviously the plan was to play the entire time, and the same thing this week,” Rodgers said. “I’m going to need to see certain looks in the walk-throughs to replace those reps I may or may not get in practice and try and get out there at least one day this week and feel good about the stuff we have moving on into Sunday.”

Rodgers did emphasize that just because he was able to do some things late in last week’s game against the Vikings — such as rolling out and extending plays — that doesn’t mean he’ll be able to do more from the start of the game against the Redskins. Rodgers acknowledged “the heat and the adrenaline definitely helped” him be more active against Minnesota.
