Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers scored a rushing touchdown late in the second quarter in their NFC Divisional Round matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. His second score of the day—to go along with the gorgeous pass he delivered to wide receiver Davante Adams in the endzone—the TD gave the Packers a commanding 16-3 lead over the visiting Rams club.
He may be 37 years old, but Rodgers can still move with the best of them. Watch the QB do his thing below:

Working inside the Rams' five-yard line, Rodgers took the ball out of the shotgun before beginning a designed bootleg towards the right sideline. Confronted by outside linebacker Leonard Floyd who had closed his inside route towards the goal line, Rodgers improvised with a beautiful pump-fake that drew the defender off his feet.
With the passer suddenly having a step on Floyd, Rodgers quickly darted to the outside marker and left the linebacker scrambling off-balance.
Rodgers quickly got the ball into the end zone with no defenders in position to cover for the fallen Floyd without anyone having laid a finger on him. While the score increased, the Packers' advantage over the Rams, Green Bay was unable to convert the extra point thanks to a bad snap from center Corey Linsley.
Entering the second half, Green Bay holds a 25-10 advantage over Los Angeles.
