New York Jets The Aaron Rodgers experiment ended after two disappointing seasons. On Thursday, the team announced what everyone saw coming. Rodgers will not return to the team in 2025.
I informed Aaron Rodgers that I was moving in a different direction at quarterback.

The move comes after the team hired Aaron Glenn as the new head coach. This naturally raised whether there was room for Rogers for new coaching staff with different visions for the team.
What was thought to be a Super Bowl-winning formula ended up explodeing in the Jets' face. Rodgers suffered a season-ending Achilles injury to kick off 2023, then returned just to spend his worst season in the NFL, with 28 touchdowns, 11 interceptions and a career-low passerby rating of 90.5 as a starter I threw it.
The Jets did everything to shape the roster specifically for Rogers, signing comfortable players in Green Bay like Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb and making big deals for Davante Adams. It never happened, and the final result was a 5-12 record, with manager Robert Saleh being unfairly sacrificed at the quarterback altar.
It is unclear whether Rogers will land anywhere in the NFL, or if he will leave the game. If Rodgers decides to join a free agency, the possibility of finding a place to play, especially in light of many teams that need QB help, combined with a serious shortage of talent in the NFL Draft. is very expensive.
Meanwhile, it's time to turn to the Jet page. The organization has done a great job at Aaron Glenn's landing, and he aims to bring the same kind of defensive aggression to New York, which he exhibited in Detroit. At quarterbacks, the team will not simply turn the ball over, looking for someone to manage the game, at least until they are in the spot where they find a future QB.
