Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers may have been on to something when he told The Pat McAfee Show earlier this week that “anything is possible” in terms of a potential return to the field this season.
Rodgers, who tore his Achilles on New York’s first offensive possession of the season last Monday night, underwent a “speed bridge” procedure on Wednesday, which is designed to accelerate the normal rehabilitation process from the injury, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero.
The surgery, which was conducted by renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache, included placing an internal brace called a speed bridge on Rodgers’s Achilles.
