The Saga Continues: Jets Benching or Cutting Aaron Rodgers Midseason ‘Increasingly Likely’

33 comments
  1. I thought maybe Rex Ryan might get to coach Rodgers next year, but now if he does get hired, as is his wish, it will have a top of the draft QB like Shedeur Sanders.

  2. Normally benching or cutting a player of Rodgers’ caliber, even at his current age, would be laughable, but then again, this is the Jets.

  3. Good lord what a shit show. As much as I’ve complained about Wolfe/Mayo/Kraft recently, at least we’re not doing stuff like this

  4. Is it likely? He has been a top 10 qb this year coming off a torn achilles. If jets are smart they appease him with a coach and gm he likes and run it back with Adams next year with a healthier Rodgers.

  5. What is the point of benching him now? Is it just in case he gets injured and he has some injury guarantees?

  6. They really let go of a coach that was making their defense intimidating, their GM, and now considering this WHAT A CLUSTER FUCK that org is.

  7. So they may play him, cut him, bench him, or put him on injured reserve. Cutting edge take. And they say sports journalism is dead.

  8. No, the chances of cutting Rodgers midseason are exactly zero. They straight up can’t do anything to create the space for that dead cap hit, impossible.

    Offseason, treated as a June 1st cut to keep the spread on the ’25 & ’26 caps? yeah, sure.

    As far as benched, even if they do they’ll just lie and say he has a torn gooch or whatever.

  9. I’m conflicted.

    Finishing the season better than the jests would be delicious but is it worth the worse draft pick?

  10. 1. I hate the jets so FTJ forever and ever amen
    2. I mean removing the season ending injury immediately last year, he didn’t look completely washed before that. I always get a kick out of this stuff like how could the staff have known? Everything is a relative gamble, these were ling shots, and man did they flop.
