The veteran star has made a point to connect with the young New York Jets quarterback as he recovers from an Achilles injury.
Aaron Rodgers might not be on the field for the New York Jets yet, but the team seems feel his presence in the quarterback room with back-up quarterback Zach Wilson.After Rodgers tore his Achilles on the Jets' first drive of the season earlier this year, Jets Head Coach Robert Saleh mocked reporters who were writing the team off.'I don't know why people are trying to put an obituary under our team name,' Saleh told reporters on a Zoom call.
Every once in a while, Downing sprinkles in non-football trivia, and at one point, Wilson got to the million-dollar round. Facing a question about The Shawshank Redemption that he couldn't answer, Wilson used his 'Phone A Friend' lifeline to call Rodgers, who claimed he was watching the movie as Wilson called him.Rodgers has acted as a de facto assistant coach this season, but the team hopes he can still return to play at some point.
