Aaron Rodgers will hit free agency this offseason, and there seems to be a handful of teams that could be interested in his services as he will turn 42 toward the end of the 2025 season.

"First year after an Achilles is one of the hardest things to do," Crosby said.

Rodgers and the Jets were 5-12 despite the veteran having notable weapons around him in Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard and eventually Davante Adams. He had 3,897 passing yards and 28 touchdown passes – better numbers than his final year with the Green Bay Packers.

Rodgers failed to find the right rhythm on the offense, and with a new regime in place, the team announced it will release him.
The Raiders could use a quarterback after starting three different ones during the 2024 season. Gardner Minshew II, Aidan O’Connell and Desmond Ridder were only able to go 4-13 and finish last in the AFC West.
