The absence of Aaron Rodgers from the New York Jets' two-day minicamp has stirred up some attention, but head coach Robert Saleh is downplaying the situation. Saleh revealed that Rodgers had a prior commitment that he had informed the team about in advance, emphasizing that there are no issues between Rodgers and his teammates. The absence of edge rusher Haason Reddick, on the other hand, seems to be related to a contract matter.
When asked about Rodgers being labeled as having an 'unexcused' absence, Saleh clarified that he and Rodgers are in agreement on the matter. Saleh stressed that the situation is more of a concern for those outside the team than within. He reiterated that Rodgers had communicated his plans beforehand, although backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor indicated that he was informed of leading the starting offense only on the morning of the minicamp sessions.
