Aaron Rodgers was injured on his fourth play as a Jet. It’s an achilles injury on the same leg he had his calf injury during OTAs. His season is likely over and Boomer is sick to his stomach.

The Jets could still have a good season with Zach Wilson, but they are not going to the Super Bowl, and that’s all that matters for Jets fans.

Quinnen Williams postgame interview on NFL Network was awesome and Jerry has the audio. Josh Allen talked about his 4 turnovers. Brian Daboll is self reflecting, watching tape and then on to Arizona. In the final segment of the hour, we took calls from Jets fans who are still confident in the team without Rodgers. Gio said the Jets can’t go forward with Wilson just handing the ball off.
With Aaron Rodgers injured, who could we bring in as a backup to Zach Wilson? Matt Ryan? What about Nick Foles? Earlier Gio suggested Blake Bortles.

The Jets dream was crushed last night after Aaron Rodgers went down on his fourth play as a Jet. It is most likely a ruptured achilles which would end his season.

Jerry returns for an update and starts with the game winning punt return for a TD in the Jets/Bills game. Jets players reacted after the game to Rodgers’ injury and Jerry has all the audio. In the final segment of the hour, Gio wonders if a Matthew Stafford trade is feasible. Mike Tannenbaum is the one who threw that out there. Tannenbaum also thinks they should bring Colt McCoy in.
Gio wants anybody except for Zach Wilson at QB for the Jets. Boomer thinks Tim Boyle will start a game at QB for the Jets. This is Zach’s last opportunity, and it comes with the best team possible around him. Rob Saleh must be scrolling Instagram looking for an inspirational meme.
