Packers' Aaron Rodgers (knee) active against Minnesota

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (knee) has been officially listed as active for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

What It Means:

This comes shortly following a report that Rodgers' knee is expected to take "a couple months" to heal. He's going to play through the pain for the time being, but if his knee issues flare up, then Deshone Kizer will be in line for playing time.

numberFire's models project Rodgers to throw for 281.1 yards, 1.9 touchdowns and 1.1 interceptions against the Minnesota Vikings today. Accounting for the chance of Rodgers coming out of the game, we also project Kizer for 93.8 yards, 0.4 touchdowns and 0.4 interceptions.
