Rodgers won't play in the first two preseason games, Saleh has said. The third game, against the Giants, appears to be up in the air. A week ago, Saleh said his"instinct" was to sit Rodgers for all three, which seemed to catch the four-time MVP by surprise. "It felt good putting on shoulder pads, running with the guys," said Williams, who signed a one-year, $10 million contract."It felt good. a grind, for sure. I'd say this whole process has been a grind."
