Aaron Rodgers plots Super Bowl charge ahead of New York Jets return after injury heartbreak
Aaron Rodgers admits he “is on the last couple of holes” of his NFL career but believes he is capable of guiding the New York Jets to a long-awaited Super Bowl this season.
The four-time MVP quarterback is primed for what he hopes to be his first full uninterrupted campaign with the Jets after suffering a year-ending Achilles injury just four plays into his debut against the Buffalo Bills in Week One last season.
It would prove a nightmare start following an offseason in which his arrival from the Green Bay Packers had fuelled Jets optimism of a return to the playoffs for the first time since 2010, and perhaps even a first Super Bowl since 1968.
Rodgers’ debut had been greeted by a laser light show and hip hop artist Method Man announcing his name as he raced out to a raucous MetLife Stadium atmosphere while holding the American flag. It was the scene from a movie, only for disaster to strike.
