Aaron Rodgers’ Future with the Jets in Doubt
Aaron Rodgers’ time with the New York Jets may be coming to an end. According to NFL insider Dianna Russini, it’s increasingly likely that Rodgers will be placed on injured reserve or benched in the coming weeks. Some even speculate that he could be cut during the season.
Rodgers still wants to play in 2025, just not for the Jets. A split between the two would be mutually beneficial, given the team’s disappointing 2024 season and failure to make the playoffs since 2021. Despite this, Rodgers could still attract interest from quarterback-needy teams.
Here are three potential destinations for the Super Bowl XLV MVP next season:
The Las Vegas Raiders could be a good fit for Rodgers, who could reunite with former Packers teammate Davante Adams. The Raiders have struggled to replace quarterback Derek Carr, and Rodgers could provide a more stable option.
The Cleveland Browns are likely stuck with quarterback Deshaun Watson due to his massive contract. However, they might consider signing Rodgers as a backup or even a starter, given Watson’s poor performance before his season-ending injury.
The Minnesota Vikings could also be a potential landing spot for Rodgers. If rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy’s recovery from knee surgery is delayed, the Vikings might consider signing Rodgers as an insurance policy.
