Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was carted to the locker room with a leg injury in the second quarter of the team's NFC North-deciding game against the Detroit Lions.

Rodgers, a leading MVP candidate, injured his left calf while throwing a touchdown pass to Randall Cobb with just under three minutes remaining in the first half.

He was carted to the locker room after walking to the sideline and is questionable to return. Matt Flynn is playing in his place.

Rodgers started the game 6-of-9 for 97 yards and a touchdown. He entered the game as probable with a calf injury.
