Bengals to stick with K Mike Nugent

Aaron Rodgers said he understands that a conversation will almost certainly be had about his status for the remainder of the season.

That's in large part because of Jordan Love, the third-year backup quarterback who hasn't played much meaningful football in his career. He showed some promise in relief of Rodgers after he left Sunday's game against the Eagles because of the rib injury.

Rodgers said he'd love to finish out the season but understands, "this is a business and there's a lot of us kind of older guys who play a decent amount and they might want to see some younger guys play." He said if the conversation comes up he'd, "approach that with an open mind and without any bitterness or resentment." The Packers are 4-8 and hope is fading fast for a playoff berth.
