The New York Jets have made headlines for the past 12 months.
While other topics have been mixed, a consistent theme surrounding their quarterback position has created the most significant storyline.
The latest controversy surrounds Zach Wilson after reports that he did not want to return to the starting role.
Aaron Rodgers responded to those reports, indicating that a winning organization would never allow that.
Some believed Rodgers’ response allowed him to talk negatively about his new team, but his head coach didn’t view those comments that way.
As Robert Saleh said via Pro Football Talk, “I don’t think it’s an attack on the organization.”

Rodgers has been in the NFL for a long time.
While he has been known to make controversial statements, especially in the past year, Rodgers does not typically speak poorly about his team.
His comments are usually political, or if they are about his team, they are generally positive.
This is likely why Saleh should protect Rodgers, knowing his career pedigree and typical demeanor.
The situation with Wilson has quickly turned into a public manner, as many reporters and analysts have quickly run with this story.
In his latest comments, Saleh clarified that this matter will continue to be handled behind closed doors at the Jets’ facility.
Wilson has been named the starter, and it appears that, at the moment, this situation will be resolved.
Fans will wait to get additional insight into the Wilson situation and what the end of the year will mean for his career with the Jets moving forward.
