The New York Jets are leading the New England Patriots at the half after putting on a stellar performance on offense. Veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers looks like his normal self, lighting up the Patriots’ defense, and Jets fans are ecstatic about what they see. However, after scoring a touchdown, a seemingly awkward moment happened between Rodgers and his head coach, Robert Saleh, and fans were confused.
Aaron Rodgers and Robert Saleh
A video is going viral of Rodgers and Saleh following the team’s second touchdown of the game, where the quarterback seems to pull away from his head coach trying to congratulate him.

New York Jets Fans React
Many fans have different opinions on what Rodgers said to Saleh, but the most popular seems to be that he told his head coach “too early.” Others think that Rodgers told Saleh to stay out of his way, which would be an awkward moment if true. Here are some of the reactions to the video on social media:
Looks like “Too Early” to me.

New York is beating the Patriots 14-3 at the half, and if Rodgers said what many think he did, look out for the Jets to try and run up the score. What do you think the veteran quarterback said to his head coach, and could it be an awkward tension in their relationship?
