The question of when Aaron Rodgers will retire is expected to come up a lot during the 2023 season as the new Jets quarterback will turn 40 in December.
While Rodgers previously told reporters that he plans to play “for the foreseeable future” with the Jets, the four-time MVP seemed to further emphasize this idea on Thursday when talking about his time with the team thus far.
“I love being around the young energy, the excitement,” Rodgers said. “There’s a great feel to this team, guys who are young and super talented on their first contracts, many of them. ... When you have so many great players on rookie deals, it’s pretty exciting, knowing you can do something. You’ve got a good window. It’s not just a one-year thing where you can be competitive, which is fun.”
