In an announcement released on the team’s site, the Jets have shared that they will be moving on from Rodgers before the start of the 2025 season. The soon-to-be-released, future Hall of Famer will be free to sign with any team this offseason, thus ending a cataclysmic two-year run with Gang Green that was marred by a torn achilles, a 5-12 season in 2024, and a further collapse in playing ability. FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer broke the news on Super Bowl Sunday that the Jets planned to move on from Rodgers, who was reportedly asked to shelve his appearances on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show during the 2025 season if he did return to the team. The Jets are taking on a $49 million dead cap hit, though that can be broken up over several years if Rodgers is designated as a post-June 1 release. A shadow of the player he was when he last won league MVP in 2021, Rodgers, 41, will likely have to continue his playing career as a bridge QB for any team interested in his services. That’s if anyone is interested at all in the circus this has become. Rodgers, meanwhile, will probably have zero interest in being anyone’s No. 2. It’s quite possible we are at the end of the line of what has been an inner-circle HOF career.
