Moreover, Rodgers cryptically stated that he could continue for three more seasons, or he can retire after one season. With Rodgers’ injury in recent times, A-Rod’s retirement is the talk of the town. However, a solid statement on his retirement is still awaited. 

But seeing the quarterback’s dedication and gameplay, it can be predicted that Rodgers will be seen again at the gridiron leading his team. Meanwhile, Rodgers’ recent season season-ending injury got the Jets in dilemma, forcing them to recalibrate their offense facet for future games.

A-Rod’s grueling season-ending injury

Aaron Rodgers’ promising season with the New York Jets came to an abrupt end during Monday night’s season opener against the Buffalo Bills. The pivotal moment occurred early in the game when Leonard Floyd of the Buffalo Bills tackled Rodgers just five minutes into the game. Attempting to evade the defense, Rodgers was brought down to the turf by Floyd. After multiple medical scans, it was confirmed that Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon, which will require a season-ending surgery. 

Despite the injury, the game was in the Jets’ favor, where they secured the victory in their season opener with a score of 22-16. The Jets’ safety Jordan Whitehead displayed a promising game and scored three interceptions. Moreover, the Bills’ offense couldn’t overpower the Jets’ defense, where they neutralized Bills’ running backs ability and passing game. With Rodgers’ season ending on a grueling tone, the Jets quarterback Zach Wilson faces a challenge to revamp their offense ahead of their next game against the Dallas Cowboys.
