“We Don’t Point Fingers”: Injured Aaron Rodgers Reveals His Master Plan as Patrick Mahomes’ Chiefs Comes Knocking at Jets’ Doorsteps

Aaron Rodgers is an MVP in the truest sense. The veteran QB might no longer be on the field after his season-ending ACL tear during the New York Jets’ season opener at Metlife Stadium. But, make no mistake, Rodgers is still a leader. He’s not just talking about ‘we,’ he’s living and breathing it! Even though he is away from the gridiron, A-Rod continues to stand up for his squad. 

The Jets have lost two games since the 4x NFL MVP was taken off the field four plays into Week 1. Sitting at a score of 1-2, backup QB Zach Wilson has been feeling the heat. Even Broadway Joe, the legendary Joe Namath, didn’t hold back with his critique. But guess what? Rodgers ain’t having none of it! No sir, this QB sensation is giving it right back to Namath and rallying The Jets’ squad to up their ante.

There’s been too many side conversations, we need to grow up a little bit on offense and do our jobs,” 

And that’s not all! Rodgers laid it out plain and simple “We don’t point fingers, that’s everybody. We don’t point fingers at the coaching staff and don’t point fingers at each other.”
