FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The New York Jets announced Tuesday that there are no restrictions on quarterback Aaron Rodgers as the future Hall of Fame signal-caller prepares for what he hopes will be a full season in Jets green.

Rodgers famously tore his Achilles tendon on his team's fourth offensive play of last season, abruptly ending a campaign that long-suffering Jets fans had hoped would conclude years of losing.

The Jets, who have now endured eight consecutive losing campaigns, acquired Rodgers in an April 2023 trade from the Green Bay Packers. Rodgers spent 18 seasons with the Packers, helping Green Bay win a Super Bowl in 2011 and earning four NFL MVP awards and 10 Pro Bowl selections.

With the devastating injury now more than eight months behind him, Jets coach Robert Saleh said his prized QB has no restrictions as players participate in pre-training camp activities known as organized team activities (OTAs).

“He looks good, man," Saleh told reporters at team headquarters in Florham Park, New Jersey. "The arm talent, obviously, is still there. But it’s really just re-acclimating to everything, and we’re trying a bunch of new stuff, too, and it’s just, again, trying to evolve within the offense."

When asked whether Rodgers, 40, is taking snaps under center and fully participating, Saleh confirmed: "He’s doing everything."

The league and its television partners are banking on a healthy Rodgers, as the Jets have been scheduled to play in six prime-time games this season.

Gang Green's regular-season opener is set for Sept. 9 against the host San Francisco 49ers on "Monday Night Football."

Rodgers' season-ending Achilles injury came in Week 1 on a sack by Buffalo Bills defensive end Leonard Floyd. Coincidentally, Floyd left Buffalo this off-season to join San Francisco.

Rodgers’ arrival in New York brought a wave of optimism to Jets fans, who have not seen their team reach the playoffs since 2010. The 40-year-old quarterback's illustrious career includes numerous records and accolades, and his leadership and experience are expected to be pivotal in transforming the Jets into contenders.

During his time with the Packers, Rodgers was known for his precision passing, game management, and ability to perform under pressure. His Super Bowl XLV victory and four MVP awards underscore his status as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.

The Jets' acquisition of Rodgers was seen as a bold move, signaling their intent to compete at the highest level. The trade involved significant assets, but the potential payoff of having a quarterback of Rodgers’ caliber made it a gamble worth taking.

With Rodgers now back to full health, the Jets are hopeful that his presence will elevate the performance of the entire team. The offense, which struggled in previous seasons, is expected to benefit greatly from his expertise and command of the game.

The Jets' schedule, featuring six prime-time games, reflects the league’s anticipation of a rejuvenated team led by one of football’s most compelling figures. These high-profile matchups will provide Rodgers and the Jets with a platform to showcase their potential on the national stage.

As the team continues its preparations through OTAs and into training camp, all eyes will be on Rodgers and his integration into the Jets' system. His ability to adapt to new teammates, coaches, and play-calling will be critical in determining the success of the upcoming season.

For Jets fans, the prospect of seeing Rodgers lead their team is a source of excitement and hope. The long wait for a return to playoff contention may finally be coming to an end with Rodgers under center.

The upcoming season promises to be one of the most anticipated in recent memory for the Jets, as they aim to break their playoff drought and reestablish themselves as a force in the NFL.
