Green Bay Packers Fans React to Incredible Aaron Rodgers News During Week 6 Appearance

When the Green Bay Packers first traded Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets, there was a great deal of excitement among both fanbases. Packers fans were excited for the prospect of getting another first round pick (all Rodgers had to do was play 65% of the Jets’ offensive snaps) and to see what the team has in 2020 NFL Draft pick Jordan Love.

Jets fans, of course, were excited to have one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history on their team. Unfortunately, for both teams and fanbases, Rodgers’ first season in New York last just four snaps.

The future Hall of Famer tore his Achilles and was ruled out for the season shortly after their first game began. Though he was ruled out for the season, Rodgers said it was his goal to come back for the end of the season.

Of course, this would be unprecedented, especially given his age. However, Rodgers’ appearance on the Jets sideline, without crutches, for New York’s Week Six game against the Philadelphia Eagles, had fans talking on social media.

Prior to the Jets’ win over the Eagles, Rodgers was seen on the field throwing a football around. While it is no surprise that he can still throw a ball, being able to do so upright, without assistance, a month after tearing his Achilles had fans of both teams excited on social media:

Even if Rodgers somehow comes back before the end of the season, it still will not be enough for Green Bay to get the Jets’s 2024 first round pick. They will still get the second round pick, though, just like they did this past year.

There were multiple storylines after the conclusion of that game.  One of the biggest ones was Christian Watson’s near touchdown that would have changed the game.  In the middle of the third quarter Jordan Love connected with Watson for a 77-yard completion that put a spark in the Packers’ offense.  However, it was how that play ended that was a major storyline.
