The New York Jets and Aaron Rodgers have been discussing whether the four-time league MVP will return to the team in 2025, with a decision potentially coming this week, NFL Network reported Sunday.
Rodgers, 41, has spent two seasons in New York. The quarterback suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in the opener in 2023, and last season, he rebounded to start all 17 games but the Jets finished only 5-12. He completed 63.0 percent of his passes for 3,897 yards with 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
If he is to stay in New York, he likely will need to agree to a pay cut from his $37.5 million base salary. He is set to become a free agent after the 2025 season.
Per the report, the Jets will want a commitment that he’ll take part in offseason programs to learn the offense of coordinator Tanner Engstrand, brought on board by new head coach Aaron Glenn.
Rodgers spent 18 seasons with the Green Bay Packers before moving on the Jets. The future Pro Football Hall of Fame member ranks in the top 10 in NFL history in many statistical categories.
He is first in passer rating (102.6), fifth in career touchdown passes (503), and seventh in both pass completions (5,369) and passing yards (62,952).
