Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is getting closer and closer to fully healthy. Rodgers said Wednesday that he is “close to 100 percent” after fracturing his left pinkie toe in early November. Rodgers added that he feels he’ll be fully healthy by next week. The Packers have a first-round bye this week and will have home field advantage through a potential NFC Championship game.
Scoring in the NFL is taking its biggest drop in more than 40 years. The average points per game for teams across the league dropped from a record 24-point-eight in 2021 to just 23 this season. It marks the second biggest single-season decline since the merger in 1970.
