Aaron Rodgers knows there are no excuses for the New York Jets now.
On Tuesday, the Jets made a huge trade, acquiring All-Pro receiver Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders for a conditional third-round pick. Rodgers and Adams became one of the NFL's top quarterback-receiver duos during an eight-season run with the Green Bay Packers from 2014 to '21.
Rodgers and the Jets now have a new coach with Jeff Ulbrich replacing Robert Saleh, and he now has a true No. 1 receiver to pair with Garrett Wilson. During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show, Rodgers declared the team must go on a run now.
He said, "It's now on us because we're going all-in. It's our time to go out there, win games, and get on a run, which we all feel deep down is going to happen."
