00:00in the end of an error that's not a typo the end of an error in New York Aaron

00:07Rodgers two-year tenure with the Jets is now officially coming to a close a new

00:12regime led by Aaron Glenn and Darren Moogie they have decided Aaron Rodgers

00:17is not going to return as their quarterback this upcoming season

00:22according to Jake laser of Fox Sports DRS Aaron Rodgers flew back to New

00:27Jersey last week to meet with the Jets brass about his future with the team

00:31only to be told by the Jets brass we're making a move in a different direction

00:36at the quarterback position can't blame them now we wait on Aaron Rodgers to see

00:42what his future is going to be in the NFL 20 NFL seasons now 41 years old

00:50will he return to the National Football League that is the question by the way

00:56Jets fans accountability as I said last week is back in the building you have to

01:01be excited by this news coming out oh no understand this Ben the Jets don't even

01:06know who their quarterback is going to be next year but they know it can't be

01:09Aaron Rodgers and I said when the new GM comes in and the coach comes in Woody

01:13Johnson said like oh absolutely they want him back but he'll be back the fact

01:17that they were able to get in the room together and say we can't I know you

01:20paid this guy a lot of money we're gonna eat a lot of dead cab space but let me

01:23build this foundation here we can't go another year and have Aaron Rodgers

01:27sidetracked so many things in the locker room or try to talk to Woody Johnson

01:30over the general manager or head coach's head here this shows me that Aaron Glenn

01:35understands what it takes to build a football team from the ground up and

01:39he's going to do that yes it's gonna hurt the team because you're gonna eat

01:4250 to 60 million dollars in dead cab space but the sign of a new coach coming

01:46in going like I don't care who my quarterback is the record who cares what

01:51it will be let me build this thing into a winning organization Jets fans as I

01:55said congratulations you're on the path to success now and it starts immediately

02:00DRS more than likely you saw it there a June 1st designation meaning if you are

02:06cut after June 1st the dead cap hit and what it costs your team annually is

02:11going to be less you are still on the hook for what the remainder of the

02:16contract is owed out around 49 million dollars estimated for Aaron Rodgers but

02:21only 14 mil of a dead cap hit for 2025 if Aaron Rodgers is released after June

02:291st which would be the plan now Aaron Rodgers for himself does he want to come

02:34back to the football does he want to come back to the National Football League

02:37return somewhere else or retire DRS what do you think will be this election it's

02:45got to be a good spot because this isn't going to be one of those where

02:48hey let me go to a bad football team just looking for a name here to try to

02:51sell some tickets is it one of those intriguing spots where he might be able

02:54to land in San Francisco if the Brock Purdy negotiations don't go well is it

02:59gonna be the Minnesota Vikings who say you know what JJ McCarthy still at the

03:02knee injury still a young kid here maybe he can learn behind Aaron Rodgers but

03:05let's let's let's be honest here it wasn't as if Aaron Rodgers is leaving

03:09the Jets in a power position that was a disastrous two years that showed him

03:13getting older and not able to hold up behind an average offensive line so is

03:18he just able to go to the 49ers and get it all back together I don't think so

03:22this is a tough look for Aaron Rodgers to me players want to go out on their own

03:26terms if he retires he's not going out on his own terms by being let go by the

03:31New York Jets
