Last season was a lost one for the New York Jets after Aaron Rodgers went down with a major injury. In the latest NFL analysis, though, they’re projected to do better for the 2024-25 campaign.
As the Jets gear up for the 2024 NFL season, the stakes have never been higher for Rodgers. After a tumultuous 2023 campaign marred by injuries, including a torn Achilles just four snaps into his Jets career, Rodgers has returned, and the team is poised for a comeback.
The Jets have strengthened their roster significantly, adding depth and talent to both the offensive line and skill positions. Linebackers CJ Mosley and Quincy Williams emphasize that this is the moment for the Jets to break their long playoff drought, which dates back to 2010. Mosley noted that the challenges they faced last season, including the struggles of backup quarterbacks, have only made the team more resilient.
Rodgers, a four-time MVP, has infused a winning mentality into the squad. His leadership style and approachability have fostered a strong bond among teammates. Williams points out that Rodgers treats everyone with respect, from the coaching staff to the support team, creating an inclusive atmosphere.

The Jets, Bills and Dolphins are neck and neck in my model, but Gang Green’s narrowly on top in the AFC East. New York sprang up in recent days due to its increased odds of winning in Week 1 at San Francisco, thanks to the uncertainty around whether 49ers LT Trent Williams will continue his holdout into the regular season.
With an upgraded offensive line and the addition of playmakers like Mike Williams, the Jets are determined to capitalize on their potential. The team recognizes that this season represents a unique opportunity, especially given the uncertainty surrounding Rodgers’ future beyond 2024.
As they unveil new uniforms that pay homage to their storied past, the Jets are committed to creating their own legacy. Mosley challenges the team to aim for a championship, making it clear that anything less than significant success would be seen as a missed opportunity in this pivotal season.
