Aaron Rodgers Fantasy

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will have the perfect opportunity to put the team's porous Week 1 behind them against the Lions in Week 2. Detroit's defense was ripped up for 41 points in Week 1 against the 49ers and prized cornerback prospect Jeff Okudah is now out for the season with a torn achilles. Rodgers played terribly against the Saints to open the season but now will face a Lions defense that allowed the most fantasy points to opposing passers last season. The Lions allowed 38 passing touchdowns in 2020 and Rodgers gashed them for 530 yards, one rushing touchdown and five passing touchdowns in two games against them last season. The reigning MVP is set up for a huge game in Week 2.

Green Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will kick off his 17th season against the Saints in Week 1. The reigning MVP will take the field after an offseason loaded with controversy, trade demands and uncertainty. But with that all behind him, the 37-year-old will take on a Saints defense that allowed the sixth fewest fantasy points to opposing passers last season. The Saints surrendered only nine passing touchdowns over their final eight games in 2020 but Rodgers himself ripped them up for 283 yards and three touchdowns in Week 3. Rodgers is pretty close to being matchup-proof and needs to be in all fantasy lineups for Week 1.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers spoke to reporters on Wednesday and characterized his expectations for the 2021 season. "Look, I think we all know what's at stake," Rodgers said. "It's Titletown. It's championship or disappointment just about every year." The reigning MVP is coming off a very tumultuous, complicated offseason where the veteran passer requested to be traded and almost retired. It is common knowledge that this is Rodgers' last season in Green Bay and clearly wants to go out with a bang. Rodgers will be among the top eight choices among quarterbacks for upcoming fantasy drafts.
