The biggest “if” in the entire NFL this season will be if quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets can stay healthy.
The long-suffering franchise has the longest playoff drought among all teams and hasn’t won the Super Bowl since before the moon landing.
Now seemingly healthy, Rodgers chatted with the team’s official site about what he learned during the rehab process last season after he tore his Achilles.
“I’m thankful for the lessons I learned in the process and, hopefully, it made me a better teammate, better person, better quarterback in the long run,” the four-time MVP stated.

Perhaps the injury that Rodgers suffered last season and the turmoil that the team went through made them all stronger for this upcoming season.
Now, the entire roster is deeper and more well-rounded than ever before.
Looking ahead to 2024, Rodgers and Co. certainly have everything out in front of them.
They added a big-time wide receiver in former 1,000-yard Charger Mike Williams, as well as third-round receiver Malachi Corley out of Western Kentucky.
GM Joe Douglas added a lot more help along the offensive line by bringing in All-Pro tackle Tyron Smith and veteran tackle Morgan Moses.
They also used their first-round draft pick on Penn State offensive tackle Olu Fashanu.
With stud offensive players in wide receiver Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall, the offense appears to be stacked.
The defense is also coming off of another outstanding year.
Led by a healthy and more awakened Rodgers, this Jets team is ready to go on a big run.
