When the New York Jets traded for Aaron Rodgers, there were dreams that he would make their team a Super Bowl contender.
The team hasn’t even been close to being a playoff squad with him aboard.
His first season was a complete wash. He only lasted a few plays before his entire season was ended due to a torn Achilles.
Season two was much anticipated, and neither Rodgers nor anybody could’ve guessed that the 2024 season would’ve turned out as terrible as it has.
Now, it is not a foregone conclusion that Aaron Rodgers will be back for the 2025 season.
With Week 18 approaching and the New York Jets eliminated from the playoffs, many are thinking about his future.

If he does not stay with the Jets for one more year, the report has the Las Vegas Raiders snagging him with +300 odds.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are next on the list at +400. The New York Giants, Tennessee Titans, and Cleveland Browns round out the top five teams that could bring Aaron Rodgers on board.
The star quarterback has looked every bit of 41 years old, throwing 10 interceptions and 24 touchdown passes through the Jets’ first 16 games.
Is Aaron Rodgers Thinking About Retirement?
Aaron Rodgers is thinking about the future.
This week, the veteran QB admitted he was thinking about whether the Jets’ final game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday would also be his last in the league.
“Yeah, of course, yeah,” Rodgers said as he reflected on his career.
“This game has given me a lot. I’ve given a lot back to it, and I’m thankful for it. … I won’t be thinking about that come game day. I’ll just be enjoying this. I’m just trying to stay in the moment, but of course, it’s been a long career. I’m really proud of what I’ve been able to be a part of, what I’ve been able to accomplish, and also looking forward to a nice mental and physical rest.”
Rodgers made it clear he “won’t be doing any more darkness retreats this offseason,” but stated he will take some time to rest before making a final decision.
“I need a break mentally, and I don’t want to make a decision until I’ve been able to rest mentally and physically,” Rodgers said. “Because really, since September 11th last year, it feels like I’ve been rehabbing and training just to get to be able to play in training camp, and then obviously had the nerves of playing the first few games and kind of just getting banged up, just trying to get back on the field for many weeks until the last three or four where I felt really good.
“So I just need a break mentally to just kind of refresh, put my feet in the sand, and see where I’m at after that.”
