Aaron Rodgers chastises the Jets for media leaks while defending Zach Wilson.
Aaron Rodgers, the quarterback for the New York Jets, didn’t back down. In addition to being offended by an article that was released and, in his opinion, inaccurately depicts teammate Zach Wilson as “a kid quitting from the team,” he also chastised the organization for “chicken s—” leaks to the press.
On Tuesday, Rodgers stated, “That’s a problem within the organization,” on “The Pat McAfee Show”. Tim Boyle, who had started the previous two games, was unexpectedly waived by the team on Tuesday.
“There’s no area in a culture of success where— and this doesn’t seem the only time—we don’t have to investigate this further and take private measures to stop it. Numerous additional leaks have occurred.
Referring a report by The Athletic, Rodgers was citing anonymous sources who stated that Wilson, who had been dropped two weeks prior, is hesitant to return to action due to a possible danger of injury.
This week, the struggling Jets (4–8), who have lost five straight, will likely make another change at quarterback. Coach Robert Saleh is expected to make an announcement on Wednesday.
A source verified that Saleh had a lean toward Wilson on Monday. Trevor Siemian as well as Brett Rypien, who signed on Tuesday off the practice squad of the Seattle Seahawks, are the two quarterbacks.
A member of the team again, Rodgers is recovering from surgery to heal his Achilles, and he asked why someone would try to “assassinate a person like the report does for Zach.”
Wilson visited Saleh’s office on Monday afternoon, possibly trying to contain his anger, and informed the coach that he wanted to start Sunday versus the Houston Texans.
Although the coach said he didn’t disagree with Wilson’s wish to play, he decided to hold off on making a QB choice until Wednesday.
One source told ESPN that Wilson most likely asked a teammate about the risk-benefit of playing in late-season game without playoff implications, and that’s how he learned that he has doubts.
Generally speaking, Saleh compared it to a college athlete assessing the benefits and drawbacks of missing bowl games in order to maintain their draft position in the NFL.
Wilson’s likely pursuit of a new team by 2024 may account for any apprehension regarding the possibility of injury.
