The New York Jets were extremely excited to add Aaron Rodgers to their team.
Rodgers was certainly unhappy with the Green Bay Packers when he left the organization and was hoping to find something new and exciting with the Jets.
He was unable to fully showcase his skills in his first year as he was injured in the first game of the 2023 season.
However, he is back and fully healthy, ready to prove that he was worth the investment.
The Jets lost their season opener but found a way to beat the Tennessee Titans in Week 2, giving Rodgers his first win with the team.
He was asked about it at the press conference after the game, to which he replied: “Technically it's my second. We all know that, one way or another, my first goal counts.”

At the time, Rodgers was joking with reporters, but Jets fans were pleased to see him in a good mood as he talked about the team.
His career is nearing its end and it looks like he only has a few years left.
Rodgers wants to make the most of his final years in the league and is confident the Jets are an organization capable of making a splash in the playoffs.
They have a talented offense and their defense continues to be one of the best in the league.
Their win on Sunday showed that this team can persevere and win tough games, which is critical when it comes to fighting for a playoff spot.
