Fans lost hope when Aaron Rodgers left the field with a long-term injury on September 11. Making his debut with the New York Jets this season, football enthusiasts had a lot of hopes for him. But during the team’s first drive in the first quarter, Rodgers was sacked by Bills edge rusher Leonard Floyd, and everyone knew he wouldn’t be coming back for a long time.

His season-ending Achilles tear forced him to be carted off the field. However, after undergoing surgery, the heartbroken Jets’ strongest weapon, Rodgers, vowed to return, saying, “I shall rise yet again.” And probably he was right, as the time of his return seems to be near. Moreover, the chances of the Jets winning the Super Bowl seem to be true.

Patrick Mahomes’ team, the Kansas City Chiefs, emerged victorious in Super Bowl LVII over the Philadelphia Eagles this February. However, in a recent update, it appears there are strong reasons for the Jets to win Super Bowl LVIII next year. There are around +12000 chances, and fans believe the Eagles might take the crown of champions from the Chiefs due to two main reasons.

The first reason is that the Jets, led by QB Zach Wilson, secured a victory against the Eagles on Sunday at MetLife. This win was not only significant in terms of scores but also in breaking the Eagles’ undefeated record of 12-0 in NFL history. The Green Gang defeated the Eagles for the first time in league history, changing the early record to 12-1.

During the off-season, the star addition to the New York team, Aaron Rodgers, endured a torn Achilles tendon merely four plays into their season-opening game against the Buffalo Bills. This unfortunate injury led to the 39-year-old quarterback undergoing surgery and embarking on an arduous journey to recovery. However, there have been some promising developments. Last week, Rodgers was seen using crutches, but during Sunday’s game between the New York Jets and the Philadelphia Eagles, the Green Bay Packers icon was spotted throwing the ball without any crutches or support.

The question on everyone’s mind is whether he will return to the season soon. Experts’ analysis indicates that he is unlikely to play this season; if not, then at least for some more time. A prominent surgeon has issued a warning that a premature return for Rodgers could lead to another tendon tear. Dr. Kevin Stone explained, “I’m sure that he will return to football earlier than most people normally do and test it and see what happens. There’s a chance he will re-rupture it. And there’s a chance he will do just fine. So that’s what the great unknown is.
