Rodgers had been sidelined for two months with a broken collarbone, but confirmed Tuesday that he was medically cleared to play. The Packers are subsequently wasting no time getting him ready to go. At 7-6, they are still in the playoff race, though they’d more or less need to win out and have a number of other results go their way to make up ground in a loaded NFC. Still, Rodgers returning will make them feel like they have a chance to pull that off.
