Packers QB Aaron Rodgers Nominated for Air NFL Player of the Week

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was nominated for the FedEx Air NFL Player of the Week award for his performance this past Sunday.

In a 53-20 win over the Philadelphia Eagles, Rodgers completed 22 of 36 passes for 341 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions, good for a passer rating of 120.3.

Rodgers also set NFL records by throwing 322 pass attempts and 29 touchdowns without an interception at home, two streaks without equal in league history.

This marks Rodgers' fourth nomination this season after also being nominated Weeks 2, 8 and 10. He won the award in Week 10 for his performance against the Chicago Bears.

Others nominated were Jay Cutler of the Chicago Bears and Drew Stanton of the Arizona Cardinals.

Winners are determined by fan voting online at NFL.com/FedEx through Thursday at 2:00 p.m. CT.

If Rodgers wins, a $2,000 donation will be made to Green Bay's chapter of the American Red Cross.
