  • Aaron Rodgers To Return For The Postseason?

    Headshot for Aaron Rodgers

    According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) hopes to return in time for the postseason, assuming the team makes it that far. The veteran signal-caller, who was traded to New York during the offseason, ruptured his Achilles only four snaps into his tenure with the Jets. However, after it appeared all was lost, Rodgers underwent an "innovative" procedure on Wednesday known as a "Speed Bridge," performed by "renowned orthopedic surgeon" Dr. Neal ElAttrache. While the news doesn't mean much for fantasy managers regarding the 2023-24 campaign, it likely means that Rodgers isn't planning on calling it quits anytime soon. It's also a good sign concerning his availability for OTAs and training camp next offseason. For now, Zach Wilson is expected to handle things under center moving ahead.

  • Aaron Rodgers An Option For The Postseason?

    Headshot for Aaron Rodgers

    The New York Jets have said that quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) is out for the 2023 season after tearing his left Achilles in the Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills, but Rodgers left the door open on the Pat McAfee Show for a long-shot playoff return. "Anything's possible," Rodgers said. The Jets would first need to make the playoffs with Zach Wilson now their starting QB, which could be a long shot in itself. The 39-year-old Rodgers didn't even complete a pass before his season ended in his first game with the Jets on Monday night. All indications are that Rodgers plans to return in 2024, but he faces a grueling rehab in front of him and will be 40 years old coming off a major injury next year, so the deck will surely be stacked against him.

    New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) said that "surgery went great yesterday" to fix a torn left Achilles that he suffered in the Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills on Monday night. Rodgers suffered a season-ending injury on the first offensive series of his Jets tenure and will now miss the entire 2023 season. It's a tough break for the Jets and the 39-year-old future Hall of Famer. All signs point to Rodgers trying to come back in his age-40 campaign with the Jets next year, but he'll face a grueling rehab first. New York is moving forward with Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle in their QB room. The move from Rodgers to Wilson for the rest of the year is definitely a downgrade for all of the team's offensive skill players, most notably receivers Garrett Wilson and Allen Lazard.

"The night is darkest before the dawn. And I shall rise yet again." Both head coach Robert Saleh and owner Woody Johnson expect the four-time MVP to return in 2024. However, the 39-year-old is the oldest player in the NFL and now faces several months of grueling rehab ahead of him. It's going to be tough for Rodgers to make a successful comeback at his age, but it's not out of the question.

Rodgers is the oldest player in the league at 39 years old, and he's facing several months of grueling rehab if he wants to try and return in 2024. The four-time MVP is receiving "consultations, trying to figure out what his next best move is," but he hasn't scheduled surgery yet. Rodgers is signed through the 2025 season and said multiple times before his injury that his goal was to play multiple years in New York. For the rest of the way this year, the Jets will roll with Zach Wilson under center.

The 39-year-old future Hall of Famer tore his Achilles on the first offensive series of the night and will now miss the entire 2023 season.

It's shaping up to be a crushing blow for New York after Rodgers couldn't even complete one pass before being forced from the season opener after just his fourth snap of the season. The entire Jets supporting cast stands to fall in terms of fantasy value for the rest of the season if Tuesday's MRI indeed confirms the worst outcome for the four-time MVP. 2021 No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson appears in line to start for the rest of the campaign.

He was then carted to the locker room, so it would be a surprise to see him return to this game. Before leaving, the 39-year-old was unable to complete his only pass attempt while getting injured on a sack that lost 10 yards. Backup Zach Wilson is now in the game, which is a downgrade for the rest of New York's offensive weapons in fantasy, most notably wide receiver Garrett Wilson.

    New York Jets offensive tackle Mekhi Becton has won the team's starting right-tackle spot to start the 2023 regular season. Becton, the former 11th overall pick in 2020 out of Louisville, was able to return to the practice field this summer after dealing with knee injuries the last several seasons. He managed to play well in training camp and the preseason to earn a starting job over Max Mitchell. The Jets' offensive line has always been better with a healthy Becton on the field, but the problem is he's often been out of shape and hurt early in his career. Whether the 24-year-old can stay healthy all year in 2023 is another question, but this is a good start and good news for quarterback Aaron Rodgers in his first season in New York.

Rodgers was limping around but stayed in for the next play. The future Hall of Famer injured is right calf during organized team activities in the spring. The fact that Rodgers stayed in to finish practice means his calf issue probably isn't very serious, but it could be a sign that his body is beginning to break down at 39 years old. It remains to be seen if the Jets allow Rodgers to rest at some point this week, but this is unlikely to be an injury that will keep him from playing in Week 1 of the regular season. With better weapons around him in his first year not with the Green Bay Packers, he's best drafted as a high-end QB2 in fantasy leagues as he looks to rebound from a career-worst season in 2022.

The 39-year-old future Hall of Famer doesn't need any extra tune-ups at the risk of injury in the preseason at this point of career, and he'll continue to work on chemistry with his receivers during training camp practices.

    The New York Jets signed four-time NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers to a new two-year, $75 million guaranteed contract through the 2024 season on Wednesday, according to NFL salary data. Rodgers had nearly $110 million guaranteed remaining on his old deal with the Green Bay Packers, and he's now taking less for a shot at a ring in New York to close out his Hall of Fame career. His new deal is technically a five-year deal, including two option years to spread out bonus proration and create a 2023 salary cap number of just under $9 million. It gives the Jets maximum flexibility to build around Rodgers. The 39-year-old will give the Jet a much better shot at a long playoff run this year, although he's coming off his worst season as a professional and is no lock to be an every-week QB1 in fantasy in 2023 in his new digs.
