Jets superstar quarterback is embracing the pressure for the 2024 NFL season.
All eyes will be on the New York Jets to deliver with their ameliorated roster in the 2024 NFL season. Jets superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers is liking every bit of the pressure he and his teammates are facing in a year they’re projected to contend for a Super Bowl in.
Jets: Aaron Rodgers is embracing the pressure of the upcoming 2024 NFL season
Per Eric Edholm of NFL.com, Rodgers had this to say about what’s at stake in 2024 and how he’ll go about tackling the high expectations for the upcoming campaign:
“Well, I think if I don’t do what I’m capable of doing, then we’re all probably gonna be out of here (next season),” Rodgers said. “I like that kind of pressure, though. I know it’s a tough market to play in; it’s not for everybody. Relish that opportunity. That’s the way the NFL is. … As you get older in the league, if you
do not perform, they’re going to get rid of you or bring in the next guy to take over. It happened in Green Bay, and I’m a few years older than I was back then. I expect to play at a high level, I expect us to be productive and competitive, and all that stuff to take care of itself.”
Rodgers has one more year left on the two-year, $75 million deal he signed with the Jets ahead of the 2023 campaign. Him expounding on the tenuous nature of his status with the team is more predicated on performance than contract length, though. The same goes for his troops.
