Aaron Rodgers is already injured after New York Jets OTA warmups

Aaron Rodgers appeared to tweak his ankle during the New York Jets’ warmup on Tuesday at Florham Park, NJ.

According to ESPN NFL reporter Dianna Russini, it will be released the next day Sports center“it doesn’t seem too serious.”

Rodgers remained a spectator for the rest of practice, participating in drills with New York strength and conditioning coach Mike Nicolini.

“You could see Rodgers was trying to get a little heavy on one leg,” Russini said as he broadcast a clip of Rodgers warming up. “We’re not sure if it was a sting; what a shame it is because it doesn’t really show too much. But you could definitely see on his face that something was going on.”

Serious or not, an injury to the 39-year-old QB is the last thing Jets fans want to see. Zach Wilson, the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, earned QB1 reps.

In other injury news, newly signed WR Allen Lazard — Rodgers’ teammate in Green Bay — left the field with the team’s coaches for a bit, but returned to 7-on-7.
