Now that it's beginning the healing process, is it a good time to have Zach donate his left leg to Rodgers?

Zach can rehab the leg, while AR goes the rest of the season.

Hope AR comes back with a bigger chip than ever!

Great that he had the surgery and it went well.  Now the question is how long before he can get on the sidelines to keep mentoring Zach.

Cool he'll be able to handle any hikes at the ayahuasca retreat during his retirement

You need to retire Aaron and take care of your health. The chances of your returning at 40, post-injury could be detrimental to your quality of life and overall health. If you decide to return, please do so at a coaching level. You could become our future HC!

I’m sure his primary focus will be on recovery. Getting ready for next yr. Plus it may not be zach for long.

Unfortunately 5.5 months is after the Super Bowl, so Zack will have to start.

i watched the game when akers came back and remember thinking how the hell is he doing this after 6 months when everyone else is a year.

Makes you wonder why all athletes would not opt for this procedure unless it depends on the nature of the tear.

Although 6 months does nothing for this year - that would be great news in his prep for next season.
