On Sunday, the New York Jets will face the Denver Broncos at MetLife Stadium. One player looking for a big game is quarterback Aaron Rodgers, trying to earn his third win as the starter for New York.
Of course, if you know anything about Rodgers, you understand he doesn’t have the best image in the media. However, a recent clip of him before the game strives to change just that.
It shows Rodgers complimenting a pair of young Jets fans who are sorting some Jets gear. One had a throwback jersey with Rodger’s name on it.
The young children appear very excited to share a moment with someone they likely look up to.
On the field, Rodgers is usually viewed as a very fierce and intense competitor, so seeing this much softer side during pre-game is very refreshing for a lot of fans.
“How wholesome!” said one comment.

“Good stuff @AaronRodgers12,” said another.
However, Netflix is set to release a documentary titled “Aaron Rodgers: Enigma,” which will certainly examine some of the aspects that make people think negatively of the four-time NFL MVP.
Aaron Rodgers Is Off To A Good Start In 2024
After being injured in Week 1 of 2023, Rodgers and many Jets fans have long awaited this season.
His start to 2024 has been as good as advertised when the team originally traded for him. As of now, he has completed 58 of 86 passes for 625 yards, five touchdowns, one interception, and a 103.1 passer rating.
Of course, at 41 years old, it’s unlikely he will return to his MVP form similar to 2021, but with such an amazing defense for the Jets, Rodgers just needs to be good enough not to hurt the team’s chances of the playoffs or even more.
