Aaron Rodgers signed with the New York Jets in 2023, aiming to win a second Super Bowl in his illustrious career. After a legendary stint with the Green Bay Packers, the move surprised the entire NFL.
However, the dream ended in the first game of the season with an Achilles injury. From that moment on, the veteran promised to rehab quickly in order to seek redemption in 2024.
Despite all that motivation, Rodgers and the Jets never became the supposed threat to the Kansas City Chiefs and other teams in the AFC. With a 4-12 record, the big question for Aaron is whether itās time to say goodbye.

āIām just more resigned to the reality of the situation. I think thereās going to be change here, and if Iām not a part of the change, then I just want to make sure everybody knows I have nothing but gratitude for my time here. Iām disappointed about the performance with myself and as a team, but really thankful for the opportunity. If I feel good coming back and they want to make another run at this, thatād be fantastic, but Iām not naive to the situation weāre in.ā
