New York Jets DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

During his introductory press conference, New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn was cryptic regarding quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his future with the team. "We've already [had] communication with [him]," said Glenn. "As we continue to look at the roster, we'll make decisions accordingly, and that's with a number of people on the team." Rodgers noted a few weeks ago that he needs some time away to reflect, but he did appear open to returning to the Jets if they'd have him. Whether the 41-year-old will be back with the team remains to be seen, but their new head coach is on record stating he plans to meet with the veteran QB soon and "will definitely come up with a decision much sooner than later. I don't wanna drag this out." Hopefully, Rodgers is of the same sentiment.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers is open to returning to the team in 2025 after they hired Aaron Glenn as their next head coach this week. However, Rodgers has made it clear that the ultimate decision on whether he returns will be up to Glenn and new general manager Darren Mougey. It helps, though, that Glenn is reportedly open to Rodgers returning as well, but the organization will now have conversations about whether a reunion is in the cards for the 2025 season. The 41-year-old has one more deal left on the three-year contract he signed with the Jets before the 2023 season. He's obviously not the long-term answer, but the Jets might be willing to run it back with the future Hall of Famer for one more year while a rookie QB sits on the sidelines and learns from him. If Rodgers returns, he'll be an injury risk as a QB2 in fantasy with limited upside.

According to Rich Cimini of ESPN, New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has an uncertain future with the team with new head coach Aaron Glenn. Cimini reported that, unlike the previous Jets coaching staff with Nathaniel Hackett, Rodgers has no direct ties with Glenn. Entering his age-41 season could encourage the Jets to look elsewhere as they attempt to rebuild their roster. Cimini noted that given his age, it would be "loathsome" for an older player to learn a new scheme and would be out of his "comfort zone." However, given the current state of the quarterback market, it may be challenging to find someone as skilled as Rodgers. Despite coming off a torn Achilles, Rodgers started all 18 games for the Jets and averaged 229.2 passing yards per game with a 28:11 TD:INT ratio. Over the final five games, Rodgers began to turn the corner as he averaged 254 passing yards per game. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor this situation during the offseason as it will impact the outlook of the entire offense.
