New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers certainly sounds like he’s feeling pretty fresh currently.
The Jets (3-6) will visit the Arizona Cardinals (5-4) in their next outing in Week 10. Prior to that, Rodgers and the rest of New York’s locker room had an extended period off because their last game, a 21-13 win over the Houston Texans, was back on “Thursday Night Football.”
Because of that, you can see the 40-year-old QB feels a bit more pep in his step.
“I’m feeling good,” Rodgers said. “I feel like a jackrabbit, I got all this energy.”
And there was some proof in that as well via interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich.
Over the last several weeks of the season, Rodgers has only been a limited participant in some practices for rest purposes. Typically some of that time off has been on Wednesdays, but this week, the coach announced that Rodgers was a full participant.
“Fired up to get those guys back in the mix,” Ulbrich said via video conference. “Especially for a Wednesday practice which they’ve obviously missed the past couple of weeks.”
With some long, cross-country travel ahead for the Jets as they head out to Arizona for their next matchup… Rodgers’ energy being up can only be a good thing.
