Aaron Rodgers provided fans with an update following his season-ending Achilles injury just four snaps into his New York Jets debut, indicating that his surgery was successful.
The 39-year-old was sacked by Buffalo Bills edge rusher Leonard Floyd and suffered a complete tear of his left Achilles tendon in the Monday Night Football matchup – much to NFL fans’ disappointment. “Surgery went great yesterday. Thank you for all the love and prayers and support,” Rodgers shared via an Instagram story on Thursday. Rodgers also thanked Dr. Neal ElAttrache and his staff for “starting [him] on the road to recovery.
“I’d be shocked if this is the way he’s going to go out,” Saleh said during Wednesday’s media availability. “He’s working through a whole lot of headspace things that he needs to deal with, and that will be the last thing I talk to him about.” It’s not just the coaching staff in New York who have high hopes for Rodgers’ recovery; his Jets teammates have also spoken highly of the four-time MVP.
