While the hope is the injured left knee will improve, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he is concerned it will worsen the more he plays on it. "Hopefully it goes the other way, though," he said.

I figured he won't practice for at least the first half of the season.

Does this mean Aaron Rodgers has noticed his knee is worse after the 2nd game than it was after the first game?

I figured he won't practice for at least the first half of the season.

As far as what it means it is hard to say. The article didn't give much context. If a reporter asked something like "is there a danger of the injury getting worse if you continue to play on it" then his full response of "Yeah, obviously that's a concern. Hopefully it goes the other way though." doesn't really say anything as to how it has responded and I don't think you can necessarily read that into it.

There is not much to go on based on the article.

I think Rob's headline is a little misleading. Or I read into it wrong because I take it as Rodgers is almost playing scared. Anytime you are nicked up or playing with pain, the concern of it getting worse is inferred. No one is going out there hurt saying playing a violent sport is gonna make it heal faster.

Might also just be creating ambiguity for our next opponent. Hard to say. Hopefully he won't have to play an extra 10 minutes every week.

He will be hurting all season for sure.

And maybe he is playing a mind game with the opponents.

He was asked if he is worried about his knee getting worse and he responded:
"Yeah, obviously that's a concern," Rodgers said Wednesday. "Hopefully it goes the other way though."

That's a hell of a lot different than the implication of the headline. Just a throw away comment twisted into clickbait by ESPN.

dfosterf (12-May) : *Elgersma*

dfosterf (12-May) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB

Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.
