Aaron Rodgers
QB - New York Jets
2024 Outlook
New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) said on Joe Rogan's podcast that he's progressing well, feeling good, and can do everything but sprint at his top speed.

Rodgers is five months removed from his surgery and is aiming to return at the start of the 2024 season, a year after his initial tear. The 40-year-old signal-caller only got four snaps into his Jets career before the injury, redirecting the trajectory of New York's season. His age brings concern when paired with the injury, but there's optimism the Jets could be competitive next season in a tough decision.
Aaron Rodgers will not be in uniform on Sunday.
