The NFL season is here, and the air is filled with drama. After a season-ending injury, Aaron Rodgers is going through a rigorous process of recovery which can take months. This has already sent the Jets fans over the edge. Aaron Rodgers was supposed to be the new wave of change that would put an end to nearly half a decade of bad juju of the Jets. Guess we need to wait for it to happen once more.
This is not at all the first time the Jets tried bringing an old and established athlete to lead their team to victory. Some of the most notable names were Boomer Esiason, Neil O’Donnell, Vinny Testaverde, and Brett Favre. Most of the time, the experiment failed, except for the time when Testaverde got within arm’s length of the Lombardi trophy. And now it is Rodger’s turn to bring something new to the team.
But we all know how did that go. In a recent turn of events, Rodgers injured his Achilles tendon. This was a landslide moment for the Jets, as things were just starting to look sunny. Nonetheless, the team pulled through and managed to open the season with a bang. But fans were more concerned about the athlete’s health.
Message for fans
A-Rod is currently down in the dumps, but that does not mean that he lost his fighting spirit. In a recent instagram post by Rodgers, he was seen thanking his fans for the concern they showed. Rodgers, in an elaborate post, was seen saying, “Thank you to every person that has reached out, called, texted, DM’d, connected through a friend, etc. It has meant a ton to me, and I’ll try and get back to all of you.”
He further continued and ended his post, saying, “I’m completely heartbroken and moving through all of the emotions… The night is darkest before the dawn. And I shall rise yet again.”
This shows that Rodgers is still not giving up, as he has a duty to his fans and team. And we hope that he recovers and returns to the gridiron soon. Keep following our page for more sports-related content.
