According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Aaron Rodgers is most likely to return from his Achilles injury in Week 16, but only if he can protect himself and if the Jets remain in the playoff hunt. The Jets would need to win at least three of their next five games to stay alive for a playoff spot. However, it is still unlikely that Rodgers will play again this season, and even if he does, he may not be a trustworthy QB1 in fantasy lineups.
