Heading into the 2023 NFL season, the New York Jets were arguably the most hyped team in the league following the team’s acquisition of superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers in a blockbuster trade with the Green Bay Packers.
Unfortunately for New York, Rodgers immediately suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in the Week 1 showdown with the division-rival Buffalo Bills, which derailed the team’s expected chance of competing for a Super Bowl title.
Although Rodgers’ injury took a toll on the Jets last year, he is now healthy and ready to get back on the field and lead this storied franchise to a bounce-back season with title-contending aspirations moving forward.
With Rodgers back in the fold and the Jets making some key additions during the offseason, the Jets may very well get back to title-contending status during the 2024 campaign, with star cornerback Sauce Gardner believing the team will do just that, via Jets Videos.
“I feel like we can win a Super Bowl,” Gardner said. “We’ve got everything it takes.”

At this point, it is anyone’s guess whether the Jets will be able to have a bounce-back season in 2024 and whether Rodgers has anything left in the tank after suffering the Achilles injury last year, which derailed any hope of contending for a title.
With the team making some much-needed upgrades on the roster and Rodgers seemingly motivated to get back to form, New York will be an interesting team to watch during the 2024 campaign and potentially a force to be reckoned with in the AFC.
