After a promising start, Aaron Rodgers the New York Jets offense came back down to Earth against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football.
In the quarterback’s first game since he tore his Achilles at the beginning of the 2023 season, Rodgers and the Jets offense struggled to generate many positives until hitting a free-play touchdown late in the third quarter.
On a very unfortunate interception throw, one of the ESPN Monday Night Football broadcast cameras caught Rodgers making one of those “oh boy, this isn’t good” faces into the distance.
You could tell that the Jets quarterback wasn’t having a great night in Santa Clara as his NFL return wasn’t going as well as hoped.

Of course, Rodgers making a face like that turned into an instant meme.
How could it not?
