Jets Land Big Name: $180 Million Man Heads to the Big Apple
The New York Jets have some questions at the quarterback position right now.
Future Hall of Famer Aaron Rodgers hasn’t announced whether he will continue his career for one more season. He’s under contract for the 2025 season but retirement hasn’t been ruled out.
There has been a lot of speculation about his future already over the last few weeks. Some have speculated the team should bring him back. Others have said New York should move on from him. None of this matters at all until we hear from Rodgers and the team.
While this is the case, it is interesting to hear how some view the Jets’ quarterback situation. FanSided’s Luke Norris attempted to take a look at Sam Darnold’s market and make suggestions for him this offseason. He brought up the Jets if they were to move on from Rodgers.
“Yes, Darnold’s run with the New York Jets after being taken with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2018 draft was a disaster, as he won just 13 of 38 starts before being traded to the Carolina Panthers in the spring of 2021,” Norris said. “Aaron Rodgers is likely gone, which leaves Gang Green with Tyrod Taylor. Like the Raiders, the Jets could be in position to take a QB in the draft, as they currently own the pick right behind Las Vegas at No. 7 overall. But they have the exact same decisions to make regarding Ward and Sanders mentioned above.
