New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has suffered a torn Achilles tendon, ending his season. Rodgers sustained the injury in the first quarter of Monday night's game when he tried to spin out of a sack. This is a significant blow to the Jets, who will now rely on Zach Wilson as their starting quarterback. The Jets may also look to sign another quarterback as Tim Boyle is currently their only other option. Additionally, Rodgers' injury will impact the 2024 draft as the second-round pick that the Green Bay Packers would receive from the trade for Rodgers was conditional on his playing time.
