Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers exited Sunday’s 40-33 loss to the Eagles early after sustaining an oblique injury in the second half, per the team.
Rodgers appeared to be in noticeable pain before exiting Sunday Night Football near the end of the third quarter to head to the locker room with trainers for an evaluation. Rodgers, who was seen on the broadcast walking in a hallway inside Lincoln Financial Field without a uniform on, ultimately missed the rest of the game despite being listed by the team as questionable to return.
After the game, Rodgers clarified to reporters that he actually sustained a rib injury in the first half, and was forced to exit after re-aggravating the injury. He also shared that he avoided any “major structural damage” after revealing that he was worried about a possible punctured lung.
