GREEN BAY, Wisconsin (Ticker) -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has been suffering from a sprained shoulder, will start Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Rodgers, who missed practice most of the week, was injured in last Sunday's 30-21 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

A former first-round draft selection, the 24-year-old Rodgers has passed for 961 yards and six touchdowns in his first season as a starter since replacing the legendary Brett Favre, who was traded to the New York Jets.
