At one point in time during his Hall-of-Fame-caliber NFL career, superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers was considered to be among the elite class of players at his position, which resulted in winning a Super Bowl title with the Green Bay Packers along with four NFL MVPs.
Only former Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos superstar Peyton Manning has more NFL MVP awards than Rodgers, with five, but the feat is impressive, to say the least.
However, unlike Manning, who broke some records and won a second Super Bowl with the Broncos after being incredibly successful with the Colts, Rodgers hasn’t had any success during his stint with the New York Jets.
Even though Rodgers was given a pass for his first season with the Jets, having suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in his first game with the team, the 2024 campaign has been rough, as the veteran quarterback looks like a shell of his old elite form.
Things have gotten so bad for Rodgers in New York that 300-yard passing games have become a thing of the past until Week 14 against the division-rival Miami Dolphins via Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team.

Despite Rodgers finally throwing for 300 yards for the first time since 2021, the Jets still couldn’t come out on top on Sunday against the Dolphins, with Miami securing the win and improving to 6-7 while New York dropped to 3-10.
It has been arguably the worst season of Rodgers’ career in the NFL, which poses the question of whether he’ll call it quits once the 2024 campaign comes to an end.
