New York Jets head coach delivers Aaron Rodgers retirement update ahead of 2023 season

Robert Saleh is extremely confident that Aaron Rodgers will at least see out the rest of his contract at the New York Jets, and could even see the quarterback staying longer

Aaron Rodgers has only publicly committed to playing the 2023 season with the New York Jets, but head coach Robert Saleh would be “shocked” if he didn’t see out the remainder of his contract.

After signing a bumper $150 million (£116.7m) three-year deal with the Green Bay Packers in March 2022, Rodgers traded to the Jets this offseason to move away from Lambeau Field for the very first time. All talk heading into the 2023 season has been about Rodgers and the Jets, but both the quarterback and his new coach seem confident that their partnership could continue past that.

The Jets have the best opportunity possible to end their ongoing playoff drought, with the team last making the postseason in 2010 when Rodgers won his only Super Bowl trophy with the Packers. It’s been disappointment since then in New York, but with Rodgers and an exciting young roster it could be a year to remember.

Saleh made a public plea for a ‘veteran quarterback’ before landing Rodgers, and now that he’s got him it’s expected the coach will do all he can to keep the four-time NFL MVP. But it sounds like there won’t be much convincing as both player and coach are on the same page.
