The New York Jets have a lot to look forward to during the 2024 NFL Season. Not only have they bolstered their offensive line, but they are getting their four -time MVP signal caller back. Aaron Rodgers is looking to win his second championship of his career, and the Jets’ first 1969.
Of course, all eyes will on Rodgers this year, that includes former teammate Brett Favre.

It is widely believed that Aaron Rodgers will have a big year with the New York Jets in 2024. Former Green Bay Packers legend Brett Favre stands out among them:
“If Aaron’s healthy, I expect what everyone else expects, that he leads that team to potentially a championship.
Their defense I don’t think anyone can question whether you’re familiar with the Jets or not, their defense is pretty darn stout. When you got a really good defense, you got a chance. Now you throw Aaron into the mix and you know there is probably not a better playmaker at quarterback starting in the league right now.
“No, I thought we had a great relationship, to be honest with you,” Favre told Gelb. “I felt like we had a great relationship. We watched a lot of film together and you know we didn’t hang out. I was quite a bit older than him, I went home to Deanna [Favre’s wife] and the girls. We played golf together. Anytime that he, you know, he would ask ‘hey do you mind if I watch extra film with you?’ I had no problems with it.
I’m a little taken aback by that but first of all I don’t read anything, I don’t watch anything, so the only time I hear something is if I’m doing a show like this or I’m somewhere where I’m in you know familiar territory with people that I played with that they know and so on and so forth. I have thought that we had a great relationship, to be honest with you.”

At the tail end of the 2024 regular season, Rodgers will turn 41. He is coming back from an Achilles injury that caused him to miss the entire season.
No one knows how much longer Rodgers will be able to perform at a high level. Every year must be a “win now” type of year.
