Aaron Rodgers will therefore only have played four snaps in 2023 with the Jets. As Robert Saleh feared after the game won against the Bills, the MRI taken this Monday by the quarterback confirmed a tear in the Achilles tendon.
His season is therefore over. Now begins a convalescence which should last at least 6 to 9 months.
The appointment is therefore set for 2024 for Rodgers and the Jets. The player will still be under contract. It remains to be seen whether he will have the desire to undergo rehabilitation when he turns 40 on December 2.
Zach Wilson at the helm of the Jets
In the meantime, Zach Wilson is back at the helm of the offense. With the errors and irregularities that go with it. Last season, the former number 2 in the Draft threw 6 touchdowns for 7 interceptions in 9 games, which ended with 5 wins and 4 losses.
New York will definitely have to make a move at the quarterback position, since Wilson is the only thrower currently on the roster. Tim Boyle is in their practice squad.
