Aaron Rodgers does not look like a man who just had Achilles surgery a few weeks ago.

There were reports Rodgers had a “speed bridge” procedure, which is designed to accelerate the normal rehabilitation process.
He wouldn’t go into specifics during a recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” on the procedure or his rehab, saying only: “Some of the things that were reported about the type of surgery I got was factual. Some of the stuff was not entirely factual.”
Rodgers had been healing and rehabilitating at home in Malibu, California, after having surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago.
The four-time NFL MVP arrived at MetLife Stadium to make his first public appearance since tearing his left Achilles tendon four snaps into his debut with the Jets on Sept. 11 against Buffalo.
The struggling Zach Wilson is making his third straight start in place of Rodgers on Sunday night.
