Aaron Rodgers' Future with Jets Uncertain as Speculation Grows Over Potential Trade to Vikings

The New York Jets face a challenging offseason after a disappointing season, with Aaron Rodgers' next move and the team's direction under scrutiny.

The New York Jets' tumultuous season has led to the firing of head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas, signaling a full organizational reset.
Aaron Rodgers, who turns 41 next month, has struggled with his worst statistical season and faces uncertainty about his role with the team in 2025.
Speculation has emerged about a potential trade to the Minnesota Vikings, where Rodgers could serve as a one-year bridge quarterback for rookie J.J. McCarthy, who is recovering from knee surgery.
The Jets could release Rodgers, incurring significant dead cap costs, or explore a trade to recoup some value, though his market appeal may be limited due to age and recent performance.
The Vikings are seen as a plausible destination, with analysts drawing parallels to Brett Favre's late-career move and noting the team's need for a veteran placeholder next season.
