Jets QB Unsure About 2025"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Aaron Rodgers will one day be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he may not be in the NFL next season. Or will he be back at age 42? That\u2019s the big question in the Big Apple, as the Jets don\u2019t really have a plan for their quarterback position. Check the fresh odds on our website.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jets Conundrum<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Aaron Rodgers experiment didn\u2019t go as planned when New York traded a couple of draft picks for the former Packers star. Last season, he ruptured his Achilles in the first game and missed the remainder of the year. Rodgers returned in 2024 with high expectations, but the Jets stumbled again, eventually firing head coach Robert Saleh. In a desperate move, the team reunited Rodgers and Davante Adams with hopes of making a run. That didn\u2019t work. Then, they fired GM Joe Douglas, and it appears a new regime will lead them in a direction that doesn\u2019t involve Rodgers. New management will likely want to start over and move on from the aging veteran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Rodgers Retire?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Father Time remains undefeated, but Rodgers has always hinted he wants to play into his 40s. However, there\u2019s no question his best days are behind him. His dilemma now is whether he should walk away with another year left on his deal or try to land another job somewhere other than New York. He did say on the Pat McAfee Show<\/em> that he plans to wait and see what happens at the end of the season and that he doesn\u2019t know if he wants to play, but New York would be his first option. He says he\u2019ll first see how his body feels, then assess if the new regime wants him back. Typically, when a new management team comes in, they want to go with their own guy, which wouldn’t bode well for Rodgers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where Could Rodgers Land?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pittsburgh Steelers<\/strong>
There was talk that the four-time MVP could end up in Pittsburgh before being traded to the Jets. Maybe he could still land in Steeltown in the offseason? The Steelers have Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, but both will be unrestricted free agents, leaving a spot open for Rodgers if he wants to play for a contender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las Vegas Raiders<\/strong>
The Raiders are playing out the string and are likely hoping to drop down the standings to have a shot at drafting a QB. This draft isn\u2019t as deep at the position as 2024, but if Vegas is in a position to draft one, they will. That could mean bringing in a veteran QB for a season, and Rodgers fits the bill there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York Giants<\/strong>
After releasing Daniel Jones, it\u2019s clear the Giants will want a new QB next season. Whether it’s in the draft or through free agency, maybe Rodgers doesn\u2019t have to leave the Big Apple just yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cleveland Browns<\/strong>
The Deshaun Watson experiment hasn\u2019t worked out, and if he moves on, the teams could potentially work out a trade for the two QBs, with Rodgers landing in the Dog Pound. Both players could use a fresh start and a change of zip codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minnesota Vikings<\/strong>
The Vikings have penciled in rookie J.J. McCarthy as the QB of the future, but maybe Rodgers follows the Brett Favre path and signs with Green Bay\u2019s rivals. They have Sam Darnold and also added Daniel Jones, but in 2025, the QB position may look very different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will Rodgers Retire Before the Start of the 2025 Regular Season?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
