On the one hand I fully believe the NFL is turning a blind eye to him using HGH or something similar to accelerate his recovery because the story would sell (elite HOF QB playing in biggest market overcomes odds, the books/movies write themselves)
On the other, I also think Rodgers is an attention whore who would absolutely be acting this way even if a return was completely and utterly impossible.
Idk which one I believe more
He's an attention whore. It's not complicated.
I already commented this, but I firmly believe that he knows the team won't be playoff contenders and once we reach week 13/14 he can use that as an excuse for why he's not playing. If they aren't contenders/going to the playoffs then it's not worth the risk - but it was never going to happen anyway.
I'm sure you'll get or already have plenty of replies about how actually Rodgers isn't an attention whore, and the media just follows him around.
The returns this quickly, it would be a medical miracle. It would raise a lot of questions to why Kirk Cousins wouldn’t be back this season as well
No way he’s medically cleared to play professional football this season
