He should have just taken the hit, extending his arm to break the fall probably made it worse in this case.
Of course, you don't know how the defender is going to twist or hold.

I saw the replay again after my post and I see exactly what your saying and the transmission of force from the hand >>> up the arm to >>> the shoulder and collarbone.
I even saw a flashback (in my memory) and the first time this happened to Aaron Rodgers.
Same side of the field and about the same distance out of the pocket and maybe at a greater angle to the LOS.
Lightning striking twice. Really bad news for The Green Bay Packers and Packer Nation. This one sucks so bad as Aaron's time is closing to it's end after this specific re-occurrence. This one really has to be hurting so many and REALLY PACKERS.
