Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was cleared to play Sunday against the Chicago Bears, marking his return to the field after suffering a broken collarbone against the Bears back on Nov. 4.

Rodgers has been a "limited" participant in practice the last couple of weeks, but head coach Mike McCarthy formally announced the former Most Valuable Player's return on Thursday.

The Packers are just 2-5-1 since Oct. 27, the last full game Rodgers played. But, if they win Sunday, they win the NFC North and advance to the playoffs.
