Could a New England Patriots division rival be undergoing a shakeup?
New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was at the WM Phoenix Open enjoying a golf event, when he was asked about his status with his current team.
The Jets recently hired former Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn as their new head coach, and many have wondered what that means for Rodgers’ future in New England.
“I’m just enjoying my time right now. I’ve talked with the Jets. If we can figure things out, we’ll figure them out,” Rodgers told Golf Channel’s Kira Dixon.
One of the Patriots’ four wins came against the Rodgers-led Jets team. They eked out a 25-22 victory in Week 8 of the regular season.

Like the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins, the Jets are a team the Patriots will keep a close eye on considering they face each other twice each year in the AFC East. So whether Rodgers stays or goes will be big news for the franchise.
Rodgers is coming off a 2024 season where he recorded 3,897 passing yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. The Jets ultimately finished the year out with a 5-12 record and third-place ranking in the AFC East division.
Will Rodgers return in 2025, and if so, what kind of changes will the Jets make to improve their playoff chances? All eyes will be on the quarterback position in New York during the offseason.
