Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he pulled his calf muscle during Sunday's 20-3 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Rodgers had been fighting off the flu throughout the week and said he was surprised to have suffered the injury. The 2011 MVP said he's likely to play in the Packers' season finale against the Detroit Lions

"It's too early to give a 100 percent guarantee, but it would definitely take a lot to hold me out of that game," Rodgers said to ESPN's Rob Demovsky
