The Green Bay Packers are coming off a huge 26-20 overtime win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. With that win, the Packers move to 6-6 on the season and keep their playoff hopes alive.
However, they are also keeping the hopes of fantasy football owners alive as well. Many Packers fans and fantasy football owners thought this would be the last image of Rodgers this season...but it won't be.

If you like fantasy football and want to hear more about Aaron Rodger's fantasy value, luckily for you, Tom Downey and Mitchell Renz talk about him and much more on The Fantasy Football Rumors Podcast.
Rodgers Returns To Practice
Rodgers is back at practice for the first time since he broke his collarbone on October 15th against the Minnesota Vikings. With that being said, he isn't eligible to return until Week 15 against the Carolina Panthers.

Packers quarterback coach Alex Van Pelt said, “You saw him throwing out there in Pittsburgh. He's doing well. He's getting healthy and he's following right along in rehab. He's probably ahead of the curve a little bit, but there's really not anything to talk about until there's something to talk about.”

Packers Schedule
Believe it or not, the Packers are still in playoff contention with their current record, and with them playing the Cleveland Browns in Week 14, their record will likely be 7-6. Adam Schefter reported that if the Packers are in playoff contention, then we could possibly see Rodgers return.
