The New York Jets are in disarray, and their future is uncertain, with the team possibly needing a new general manager, head coach, and even a quarterback. Meanwhile, Miami Dolphins fans are watching the chaos unfold with a mix of satisfaction and amusement, as the Jets’ much-hyped season continues to unravel.
Aaron Rodgers had once stated his intention to play for the Jets in 2025, but his recent comments suggest a change of heart. On The Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers admitted he’s uncertain about his plans after the 2024 season. While he still considers the Jets his “first option” if he decides to continue playing, his remarks signal growing doubt about his future in New York.
This shift in Rodgers’ stance echoes the trajectory of Brett Favre, who also ended his career with a dramatic team switch. Could Rodgers follow in Favre’s footsteps and join the Minnesota Vikings in the future?
Dolphins fans have been quick to seize on the Jets’ blunders, particularly with the ongoing search for a new head coach and GM. The Jets are reportedly turning to former Dolphins executives Mike Tannenbaum and Rick Spielman to lead the hiring process—a move that many observers are predicting will only add to their list of mistakes.
If Rodgers does return for the 2025 season, his influence on the Jets’ leadership decisions will likely be crucial. Since his arrival, he’s had a significant say in the roster, bringing in several former Packers teammates like Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb, and even Davante Adams in an attempt to keep him happy. Many Jets fans speculate that the firing of head coach Robert Saleh may have been a result of Rodgers’ dissatisfaction.
Rodgers’ play has been far from his former MVP-level form, and with the Jets’ season heading in the wrong direction, the Dolphins’ fanbase is relishing the ongoing fallout, enjoying the spectacle of their rivals’ missteps.
