MRI confirms torn Achilles for Jets’ QB Rodgers; pick likely to be downgraded … Updating the early report on the injury suffered by NY Jets QB Aaron Rodgers early in the team’s season-open OT winning over division rival Buffalo last night. The Jets have now confirmed that an MRI confirmed that Rodgers did indeed tore his Achilles which will require season-ending surgery. The original compensation package Green Bay received from the Jets for Rodgers included a 1st-round pick the Jets 2024 first-round pick, conditional upon Rodgers playing 65% of the Jets’ offensive snaps this season. Given that there is no way Rodgers reaches that goal now, we have adjusted the traded future picks file accordingly.
