Packers’ Rodgers returns to practice on limited basis

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers returned to practice on a limited basis Friday after missing the last two days due to a toe injury as he prepares for Sunday’s game at Minnesota. “He looked good throwing the football,” Packer coach Matt LaFleur said after Friday’s practice. The positive test forced him to miss the Packers’ 13-7 loss at Kansas City on Nov. 7 and prevented him from practicing in the days leading up to Green Bay’s 17-0 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. The 2020 All-Pro left tackle was activated from the physically unable to perform list last week, but didn’t practice all week and was ruled out for the Vikings game.
