Aaron Rodgers has been cleared to return to practice 11 weeks after tearing his Achilles 4 performs into the New York Jets’ season opener.

In his quest to “shock a lot of people,” the Gang Inexperienced signal-caller appears hellbent on getting again on the gridiron earlier than the season’s finish — regardless of little to play for besides delight.

With Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle below heart and Nathaniel Hackett working an uninspiring offensive assault, New York sits at 4-7 and waaayyyy out of a playoff spot.

New York Post columnist Mark Cannizzaro said that the Jets’ document and playoff standing “should make the chance Rodgers plays another game for the Jets this season less than ‘less than slim.’’’

However, as ESPN’s Rich Cimini reported, NYJ HC Robert Saleh said “Rodgers is cleared for functional football activity, but not cleared for contact” and “Rodgers will play if he wants to play, contingent upon being cleared by doctors.”

How is an offensive line, which has had seemingly countless totally different combos at this level, going to maintain the soon-to-be 40-year-old upright if he does certainly play significant snaps? Will Rodgers be capable of shake off the rust and reinvigorate a dormant offense? We’ll see.

Both approach, he needs us speaking about him. No less than this may increasingly distract followers from him endorsing anti-sunscreen propaganda.
