He also pointed out the parallels in their careers. Colin recalled that each of the two QBs won a Super Bowl at 27 and transitioned to the Jets with hopes of transforming the franchise. Cowherd contrasted this situation with more successful teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, where Patrick Mahomes augmented an already well-managed team. He said, “Mahomes took an excellently run franchise and was icing on the cake.”

He also referenced the Denver Broncos, where John Elway propelled a solid team to new heights. Cowherd’s analysis culminated by saying, “So I look at the Jets and I’m like, it’s a cautionary tale. Green Bay’s well run, The Jets aren’t and as great as far of an Aaron are a quarterback can’t save a mess.” Not to mention, Rodgers won’t be returning this season, but fans are not as sad as they were before.

Aaron Rodgers returns to practice

Aaron Rodgers has made a significant decision regarding his NFL future. He spoke on “The Pat McAfee Show.” Rodgers conveyed that despite his intensive recovery from Achilles surgery on September 13, he will not rejoin the team this season.

His choice was influenced by the Jets’ elimination from playoff contention. He had previously expressed willingness to risk playing in such games if the team made it to the playoffs. Later, Rodgers admitted that achieving full fitness during the regular season was always a long shot.

But, he is hopeful about returning to play in 2024 and beyond. As his 21-day practice window nears its end, the Jets are unlikely to activate him due to roster constraints. So, Rodgers is set to spend the remaining weeks of the season on injured reserve. Would you have liked to see Rodgers play before the end of the season? Let us know below.
