The Green Bay Packers have placed Aaron Rodgers back on IR after the team was eliminated from the playoffs Monday night. 

The team tweeted Tuesday that Rodgers has been put back on injured reserve and the team signed QB Joe Callahan.

After the Atlanta Falcons won on Monday Night Football, the Packers were eliminated from the playoffs for the first time since 2009. 

The Packers have signed QB Joe Callahan to the team, likely to act as Brett Hundley's backup, who has started much of the 2017 season. 

Hundley is expected to start the final two games of the season.
