Aaron Rodgers's stint with the New York Jets continues to be an unmitigated disaster as the QB hasn't been able to deliver on the field, and his actions off the field continue to shed an embarrassing light on the franchise that traded for him in back in April of 2023.
The latest stunning piece of news about Rodgers came Sunday morning when NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that the 40-year-old QB "resisted getting scans done" this season so that any injuries he might be suffering from couldn't be detected and he'd be able to stay in the lineup.
Rodgers has looked a shell of himself this season and those nagging injuries could be the reason why, but the Jets don't know enough about them because he refuses to get treated, which is wild.
NFL media and fans crushed Rodgers over this odd situation:
Refusing medical scans? ... And the Jets allowed it?

What a (predictable) disaster this guy has been. Instead of just leaking all their grievances with Aaron Rodgers, the Jets should just cut him and be done with it.
I mean, this way is more fun for us, but still ... https://t.co/Rd9X2aqUMJ
He’s resisting getting medical scans!?!

Aaron Rodgers refusing to reveal what injury may be plaguing him.
The #Jets are a vicious cycle. https://t.co/5OnF8x2Tyu
Very predictable that the week we hear the Jets want to move on from Aaron Rodgers we get a story that he’s playing hurt. Also, how does a team let a player resist scans if he’s hurt? It’s a mess over there https://t.co/bRMYeehhVG

After the Jets cut him this off-season, every team that has interest should read this, and about a dozen other pieces from the last two years, and say 'I hear the CFL could use a guy.' https://t.co/gg5Q6qScxd

I, for one, am completely shocked that Aaron Rodgers is refusing recommended medical care https://t.co/kgfNoq4JRN
