The NFL has added another blemish to Aaron Rodgers’ 2024 season.
The New York Jets entered this season as a playoff contender.
That was the vision for the team in 2023, but Rodgers tore his Achilles in the fourth game of that season.
Despite poor quarterback play, the 2023 team was statistically alive in the playoffs in late December and finished 7-10.

But this season has somehow been worse. The Jets won 4-12 towards the end of their season.
And as the Jets prepared for their final game of the season, Rodgers, a four-time MVP, was fined $11,255 for beating the Buffalo Bills in Week 17.
The hit came after Rodgers threw a pick. It was hardly a threat, but Rodgers was flagged for it.
It’s been a roller coaster for Rodgers, who looks like a 41-year-old quarterback coming off a tough injury but has shown flashes of turning back the clock.

But it seems fitting that Rodgers was fined as arguably the most disappointing season in franchise history comes to a close.
The Jets were trailing 42-0 by one point last week, but were able to find the end zone twice after Tyrod Taylor replaced Rodgers in the fourth quarter.
