Aaron Rodgers suffered a low ankle sprain during the New York Jets’ Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London. The injury occurred in the third quarter when his leg was caught under a defender, causing concern since it was the same leg where he had previously torn his Achilles. Despite the scare, Rodgers returned to the game after briefly heading towards the medical tent, and he played through the injury, though he was visibly in pain. This was a rough game for Rodgers, as he threw three interceptions, and the Jets fell short with a 23-17 loss
Despite the setback, Jets head coach Robert Saleh reassured that the injury isn’t severe, and Rodgers is expected to play in the upcoming game against the Buffalo Bills. The Jets’ offense has struggled in recent weeks, and Rodgers has acknowledged that they need to reduce mistakes to turn things around
