The Jets are activating quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the 53-man roster from injured reserve, head coach Robert Saleh said Wednesday. The move allows Rodgers to continue his rehab and ability to practice with the team. Had the Jets decided not to activate Rodgers — Wednesday was the deadline to do so after opening his 21-day practice window November 29 — he would have remained on injured reserve for the rest of the season and would not have been able to practice.
