The New York Jets have stumbled to a 4–10 record and Aaron Rodgers's second year with the franchise may end up representing a step back from what they did in 2023 with a combination of Zach Wilson, Trevor Siemian and Tim Boyle under center. But that doesn't mean they ever stray far from the center of the NFL commentary universe. Just yesterday The Athletic threw some coal into the fire by publishing a deep dive into the dysfunction at the top, with several eye-raising examples neatly pulled out for inspection.
While the story briefly deflected some attention away from Rodgers, who has been bolder on his criticism of ESPN during his weekly appearances on the Pat McAfee Show, figuring out what to do with the 41-year-old quarterback and deciding what to do at the most important position in sports remains near the top of the Jets' to-do list, along with finding new front office leadership.
