The superstar quarterback of the Jets and one of the most talented quarterbacks in the NFL, Aaron Rodgers, had recently made the fans aware of his comeback date.
The quarterback suffered an Achilles injury in the season-opening game against the Buffalo Bills, had surgery, and went through a rehabilitation process.
His comeback date was earlier stated around the first week of December and now Jay Glazer of Fox Sports has shared the quarterback’s wishes to come back even if the Jets are not able to secure their spot in the postseason.

The quarterback wants to demonstrate that he can still make a comeback despite undergoing surgery for the injury he suffered. The New York Jets stand in the season with a 4-6 score and Rodgers isn’t deterred by the numbers or their current standing points.
Glazer shared, “I was told originally, look, if they’re out of playoff contention then Aaron’s probably not going to try and come back. Well that changed this past week,”
“I think Aaron, even if they’re out of it, still wants to show he was able to come back faster from that Achilles tear, faster than pretty much any quarterback ever.”

The four-time MVP quarterback has not only shown miraculous recovery but can also be seen on the field doing throwing practices. His turnover during this time has been nothing but incredible. It appears the quarterback is determined to make his return to the gridiron despite all odds.
The green squad now prepares to face their next team, which is the Miami Dolphins, leaders of the AFC East division. In the last games, Zach Wilson was the starting quarterback; however, that has changed, and now the Jets starting quarterback against the Dolphins will be Tim Boyle.
