If there were any questions over how dedicated Aaron Rodgers would be to playing for the New York Jets, a new video should answer them succinctly.
On Monday, the Jets released a video of Rodgers in a full practice with the team. He was seen completing a pass to Jets Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson.
Granted, it wasn't in pads and probably wasn't a proper practice like the kind the team will have in OTAs, let alone training camp. But showing up to the team's facilities in May at a time where many players are still taking it easy bodes pretty well for the offseason practices to come.
Jets fans are absolutely loving that their new quarterback is already on the field for them. Some are hyperanalyzing the video to find further evidence that they're Super Bowl bound in 2023.
The Jets took a massive gamble in more ways than one in acquiring Aaron Rodgers from the Green Bay Packers.
On top of the draft capital that they gave the Packers to acquire him, they passed on multiple veteran quarterback options to pave the way for him to be the team's starter immediately.
It's been a while since there was this much preseason optimism surrounding the New York Jets. But with a quarterback like Aaron Rodgers, anything is possible.
Will Rodgers participate in all team activities this offseason?
