Aaron Rodgers

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports Aaron Rodgers will miss all of Jets minicamp.

Russini said Rodgers — who last year decried off-the-field distractions for his Jets team — “prefers to be somewhere else” while his teammates prepare for a make-or-break 2024 season. Rodgers’ minicamp absence is unexcused, and head coach Robert Saleh seemed less than pleased with his quarterback’s decision during a Tuesday press conference. Rodgers attended the team’s OTAs this spring and appeared to be recovered from his 2023 Achilles tear. The football-watching public — and Jets players — patiently wait to hear exactly why Rodgers decided to ditch his teammates during June’s practices.
