The New York Jets started their regular season by clinching a 22-16 victory over the Buffalo Bills. This victory could be enough to keep the Jets fans happy till the next match, but the injury of their QB Aaron Rodgers in the first drive of the game came like
While the entire Jets squad is biting their nails thinking about their quarterback’s future update, some NFL fans are speculating a rather quirky notion. They are calling out the retired NFL GOAT Tom Brady to make a U-turn to the league to stretch his helping hand towards Aaron Rodgers.
Jets fans debate the possibility of Tom Brady wearing green and white
For the first time in the league since 2000, TB12 is not gracing the football field. The three-time NFL MVP bid adieu to his illustrious career in February this year. Following A-Rod’s unfortunate injury in the week 1 match, some NFL netizens hilariously started to call out the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers icon to come out of retirement once again.
A fan wrote, “The Jets have to call Tom Brady, right?”
The California Cool successfully led two franchises to Super Bowl glory during his illustrious career. The Jets were expected to see an end to their Super Bowl drought this year, instating Rodgers at the helm. As that hope is now uncertain, fans urged Tom Terrific to become the next hero in the Big Apple.
One of them wrote, “Tom Brady you are a New York Jet.”
A netizen wrote,” About to do a very cursed tweet. The Jets should call Tom Brady.”
Though the seven-time Super Bowl Champion has recently sparked unretirement rumors by sharing a cryptic social media post, he is very unlikely to head back to the league. Brady is now busier applying his business acumen and spending time with his beloved ones. Nevertheless, the move of calling him to don green and white jerseys proves that fans always have the wildest expectations from their favorite signal-caller.
Aaron Rodgers left the Jets’ season opener ankle injury
Rodgers’ debut in the Jets regular season match lasted just four snaps as the QB1 fell awkwardly on the turf while being sacked by Bills’ Leonard Floyd. He was helped to the sideline and then carted off to the locker room. The 39-year-old was later seen entering the X-ray room with his left foot in a boot and, fortunately, his X-rays on the ankle were negative.
Mark Adickes, an ex-NFL veteran turned orthopedic surgeon, took to social media to convey his rather ominous take on the four-time MVP’s injury.
“Aaron Rodgers injury appears to be either Lisfranc foot injury, ankle sprain or possibly even Achilles. Similar mechanism to JK Dobbins injury Sunday. Best case is ankle sprain. Will miss several weeks best case,” he wrote.
Though the Jets’ head coach Robert Saleh suspected that their new starter had sustained an Achilles injury, the franchise is now waiting for the MRI report to have a complete picture of the tear. The 10-time Pro Bowler was replaced by his backup Zach Wilson only 3:45 into the game.
From the former NFL legend Peyton Manning to current superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, many footballers raised eyebrows following the unfortunate incident and wished a speedy recovery for the 39-year-old veteran. We along with all other sports fans are keeping our fingers crossed to hear a positive update about Rodgers.
