Aaron Rodgers to make Jets debut vs. Giants in preseason finale, per report

The wait to see Aaron Rodgers in a Jets uniform is just about over. The four-time NFL MVP will make his Jets debut when New York takes at the Giants in their preseason finale on Saturday, Aug. 26, in accordance to the New York Post. 

Rodgers sat out all 3 of New York’s earlier preseason exhibitions as Zach Wilson were given the beginning nod all through. With one sport left prior to the group hosts Buffalo on “Monday Night Football” to wrap up Week 1, Rodgers gets a tune-up prior to embarking into the common season. It is unclear, on the other hand, how a lot run Rodgers gets whether or not or not it’s a chain, quarter, or the whole lot of the primary part. 

New York pulled off the blockbuster industry to achieve Rodgers again in April and, in doing so, has since thrust itself into the Super Bowl dialog heading into 2023. While Rodgers had taken section in the offseason program and coaching camp, Saturday’s exhibition towards the Giants would be the first time we’re going to see him in a Jets uniform and taking part in in a reside sport together with his new group. 

Head trainer Robert Saleh did open the door for Rodgers to play in the preseason finale following the group’s 13-6 loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday, announcing that he’d communicate to him about doubtlessly suiting up. Earlier in camp, Rodgers, who hasn’t performed in the preseason since 2018 with the Packers, himself even stated that he’d be open to taking part in in the future this summer season. 

“I wouldn’t mind playing in the preseason,” Rodgers stated in the past. “I wouldn’t mind if Robert said ‘Hey, we are going to go. Let’s do it.’ Most coaches have that fear where they want to get you to the Week 1 and not risk it, but I believe there is a chance for the last one.”

Rodgers’ debut will likely be a nationally televised sport, kicking off at 6 p.m. ET on NFL Network.
