Whatever is your best prediction for when we will see Aaron Rodgers on the field, halve it! After surprising the NFL world first with an unanticipated appearance at the New York Jets locker room and then with throwing passes following that, the 4x NFL MVP once again graces the gridiron with his presence.
The speedy recovery of Rodgers shows signs of him possibly being fit to be back for his side. If he continues this progress, he might just beat the Minnesota Vikings’ Cam Akers’s record of recovery in 5 months and be there for the Jets in no time. All eyes remain on the unexpected turn of events post the injury from the star QB.

Ahead of the game between the two New York teams, A-Rod was on the MetLife field once again. He was seen throwing passes to fellow teammates minutes before kick-off. While he did not make any explosive movements, the movement from the footballer showed hardly any signs of his “season-ending” injury.
A recent tweet on X highlighted the same update, mentioning how unexpected the quick return of the Quarterback is, especially after the scenario of injury that had been surrounding the star. “It’s absolutely insane that Aaron Rodgers had Achilles surgery 46 days ago,” the tweet was captioned, reflecting the reaction of the whole football community.
