Multiple sources confirmed that the veteran quarterback’s absence from mandatory minicamp was due to a pre-planned trip to Egypt and that the Jets were made aware of the trip from the initial planning. Rodgers was present during every practice in phase one, missed one week of phase two, and attended all portions of organized team activities earlier in the Spring and Summer prior to his absence during minicamp. Even so, additional repetitions would do Rodgers well considering his reliance on intricate timing and trust to run the offense, both of which he has largely lacked while with the Jets after his 2023 season ended following just two offensive snaps. Head coach Robert Saleh joined Rodgers’ teammates in relaying a message that nothing was awry following Rodgers’ absence in late June.
