Aaron Rodgers Fantasy

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that quarterback Aaron Rodgers (calf) won't be doing 11-on-11 drills at organized team activities on Tuesday, but he'll do everything else. Rodgers suffered a minor calf strain at the beginning of OTAs, and while it's really nothing to worry about, the Jets aren't taking any chances with the 39-year-old future Hall of Famer at this point in the offseason. It would be nice for Rodgers to be on the field developing chemistry with his new teammates in New York, but there's still mandatory minicamps and training camp for that. Rodgers considered retirement in the offseason before being traded to the Jets, and he'll be looking to bounce back after one of the worst seasons of his career in 2022. He has all the weapons in place to turn things around, but Rodgers is best drafted as a high-end QB2 in fantasy.

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said that quarterback Aaron Rodgers (calf) is "fine," but he will be limited in organized team activities on Wednesday. The Jets are working to get Rodgers practicing in full by next week. The hope is that the 39-year-old future Hall of Famer will be back practicing in full by this Friday after he suffered a minor calf strain in practice last week. It's a reminder that Rodgers isn't a spring chicken anymore, but he should be just fine for training camp this summer and the start of the regular season this fall. The former Green Bay Packers signal-caller has better offensive weapons around him in 2023 than he did in his final year with the Cheeseheads, but fantasy managers should still view him as more of a high-end QB2 than a QB1 in what could be the final season of his illustrious career.

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers (calf) reportedly suffered a strained calf at organized team activities on Tuesday, according to sources. However, the injury is considered minor as of now, and the expectation is that he should be back fairly soon. Rodgers remained on the field after getting hurt in warmups and walked slowly from drill to drill. It was probably just a precautionary measure for the Jets to hold the future Hall of Famer out of drills after acquiring him in a trade with the Green Bay Packers this offseason. The 39-year-old signal-caller has a good chance to bounce back from one of his worst seasons in 2022 because of better offensive weapons in New York, but from a fantasy perspective, Rodgers is probably more of a high-end QB2/low-end QB1 at this point in his career.
