The New York Jets are having just about the worst experience they possibly could have with the massive Aaron Rodgers trade they agreed to during the 2023 off-season. The first season was derailed due to injuries, and this season they’re 3-8 through their first 11 games.
Things may go from bad to worse for this team in the very near future.
“This Is Ridiculous” Aaron Rodgers’ Imminent Departure From The Jets Sends Shockwaves Throughout League
Following reports that Jets owner Woody Johnson suggested benching Rodgers after a Week 4 loss to the Broncos, TheAthletic.com’s Dianna Russini reports that Rodgers no longer wants to play for the Jets in 2025:
And so the foundation is fully in place for Rodgers’s two-pronged, post-bye media blitz. Pat McAfee and A.J. Hawk will ask Rodgers about it on Tuesday.
Rodgers will grumble and mumble about media leaks before possibly saying something substantive on the question of whether he wants to keep playing for the Jets, in the future or now.
Then, on Wednesday, he’ll have his usual press conference, where he might (or might not) be asked pointed and repeated questions about recent developments and reports.
Regardless, it’s becoming more and more clear that it’s over for the Jets and Rodgers. The only remaining question is whether he’ll be placed on injured reserve, whether he’ll be benched, whether he’ll play out the string, and whether he’ll be cut.
With the Giants releasing Daniel Jones, Rodgers might want the same thing — if they’re thinking about benching him. Maybe, in what would be his final act as de facto G.M., Rodgers can get receiver Davante Adams released too.
Here is a look at Rodgers’ 2024 season stats:
