Jets’ Aaron Rodgers says he’s unsure of playing in 2025, could be ‘part of the change’ in New York

With Week 18 approaching and the New York Jets eliminated from the playoffs, Aaron Rodgers is thinking about the future. During Rodgers’ media availability Wednesday, the 41-year-old quarterback admitted he was thinking about whether the Jets’ final game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday would also be his last. “I need a break mentally, and I don’t want to make a decision until I’ve been able to rest mentally and physically,” Rodgers said. “I don’t think we’re even going to get that far, just because there’s going to be a regime change here, at least with the GM, and then whatever they end up doing, I’ll either get a call or have a conversation and go from there.” Rodgers said he’s not necessarily leaning towards retirement, but given the speculation around a Jets organizational overhaul after going 4-12 heading into Week 18, he does expect change within the franchise. “It’s been a great experience all around, and again, I’m disappointed about the performance of both myself and as a team, but really thankful for the opportunity.” Is Rodgers done with football, or the Jets?
