Is Aaron Rodgers’ 2023 season really over? Maybe not. In any case, the Jets quarterback is not ready to give up just yet.
According to NFL Media, the doctor assigned to repair Rodgers’ torn Achilles tendon used a procedure called “speed bridge,” which involves placing a splint in the joint. This solution would make it possible to envisage a faster return than expected.
Hope? Reduce convalescence to four months. In this ideal scenario, Rodgers would be back in early January, at the start of the playoffs.

This would indeed be unheard of. But there is another condition: that the Jets reach the playoffs with Zach Wilson at the helm.
