Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers' first regular-season start with the New York Jets came to a halt when he tore his Achilles in Week 1. 

The star quarterback has since undergone surgery and has started his rehab.

"It’s like the reverse darkness retreat," Rodgers joked during an appearance Friday on "The Pat McAfee Show." "Nothing around except for light all the time."

Rodgers was injured on his fourth snap of a Sept. 11 game against the Buffalo Bills.

Last week, Rodgers made his regular appearance on the show and said he'd use doubters as a source of motivation.

The injury prompted conversation about whether Rodgers would retire. On Friday, he once again indicated he wants to continue to play. A recent report even surfaced suggesting the star quarterback could return later this season due to the special type of procedure doctors performed.

"I don’t want to get caught in the timeline," Rodgers said. "I just want to get healthy, honestly — mentally and physically, honestly. But I’m going to do everything I can rehab-wise to put myself in a position to be ready to play football again at some point. That’s the goal. I mean, obviously, when this happened, there’s a lot of thoughts about, like, is that it? Cash it in, you’re done?

"I just don’t feel like I am. So, I’m going to put myself in a position to be able to play again and then see when that is."
