The Jets dropped their second straight game on Sunday, a 23-17 loss to the Vikings in London, in which Aaron Rodgers threw three interceptions.
That loss followed an even uglier loss to the Bo Nix-led Broncos the week before at home, where the offense failed to find the end zone.
Two days later, the team fired head coach Robert Saleh.
Hours later on Tuesday, Pat McAfee revealed on his show that Aaron Rodgers would be joining his program on Wednesday. You just know he will deliver his first comments since the firing of his head coach.
NFL insider Jordan Schultz said Saleh’s relationship with the quarterback “was not fractured, despite speculation.”
Jeff Ulbrich will take over as the interim head coach.

Many Believe Aaron Rodgers Was Behind Robert Saleh Being Fired
The spin will soon begin that Aaron Rodgers had nothing to do with the Jets’ decision to fire Robert Saleh, but few will believe that.
He might not have pushed Saleh out the door, as the Jets have stumbled to a 2-3 start this season, but he likely pointed to the exit and even held the door open for it to happen.
As Jets and NFL fans digested Saleh losing his job just five games into the 2024 season, some speculated if the quarterback was behind the head coach’s demise, pointing to a curious interaction between the two on the sideline in Week 3.
“Maybe this was more telling than we thought,” Hailey Sutton of CBS Sports wrote on X of Saleh being pushed by Rodgers.
“Guarantee Aaron Rodgers got Robert Saleh fired,” the @SavageSports_ account commented on X.
