Aaron Rodgers did not take the field for the New York Jets for their Hall of Fame game against the Cleveland Browns, but it seems he was held out for much more than him being an established veteran.
According to Jets head coach Robert Saleh via ESPN’s Rich Cimini, Rodgers suffered an injury to his feet and the team kept him out as a precaution.
Saleh says Rodgers had his small toe stepped on, but it shouldn’t be something that lingers on for too long.
Fans are well aware of Rodgers’ feet after he famously showed his foot to reporters to prove that he did not have COVID toe. Rodgers said at the time he had no lingering effects from his COVID-19 diagnosis other than “COVID toe,” which he described as “more painful than turf toe.”
Despite Rodgers being 39 years old, the Jets are certain this veteran quarterback can get them over the top.
Last season, New York was 6-4 after their first 10 games, but the lack of consistency at quarterback can be attributed to their second-half struggles, leading to a 7-10 record and another year without playoff football.
