While Aaron Rodgers has faced controversies, his future induction into the NFL Hall of Fame is certain. However, he’s only had a brief stint with the New York Jets due to an Achilles injury acquired after his transfer from the Green Bay Packers, which kept him sidelined for the entire 2023-24 season despite his efforts to return.
During this period, there were speculations about Rodgers considering a political career, potentially as a running mate for independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. However, Jets owner Woody Johnson wasn’t overly concerned about Rodgers’ political aspirations.
Speaking on Fox News, Johnson assured fans of Rodgers’ commitment to football, stating, “He is getting back to football 100 percent. He never left football.” Despite any distractions, Johnson praised Rodgers’ leadership and emphasized his complete return to the game.
Rodgers himself recently revealed his initial doubts about his career’s continuation following his Achilles tear. “I was really thinking, ‘This is it. You don’t come back from this injury,'” he shared during an interview on the “I Can Fly” podcast, according to the Associated Press.
Despite the setbacks, Rodgers remains determined to overcome challenges and continue his NFL journey, offering hope to Jets fans eager to witness his impact on the team.
