The Jets may have won in the short term after acquiring Aaron Rodgers from the Packers, but it only lasted all of four minutes before his season would end in the first game.
New York Jets fans barely had time to show up to the MetLife Stadium on Monday night before the team’s new star quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, went down with an ankle injury on the first offensive drive and had to be carted from the sidelines.
Rodgers was ruled out for the remainder of the game against the Buffalo Bills, the Jets announced midway through the second quarter. Now speculation is that he just may have played his final game ever in the league.
In the meantime, a former NFL quarterback wants to replace Aaron Rodgers on the Jets.
Appearing on ESPN’s ‘Get Up’ Tuesday morning, former Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III decided to pitch himself as a replacement for the devastated Jets.
RG3 last played in the NFL in 2020 and is currently an analyst for ESPN. However, he remains in good shape and has not given up on his career as of yet.

Griffin has been outspoken about his desire to return to the NFL. In fact, the former Rookie of the Year claimed he garnered interest from teams after he ran a 4.48 40-yard dash at Rich Eisen’s annual 40-yard charity event, indicating his dual-threat ability is alive and well at his age.
Crazier things have happened, but it’d be earth-shattering if the Jets reached out to him.
