Aaron Rodgers skipped the New York Jets’ mandatory minicamp on Tuesday for an “unexcused” reason, according to head coach Robert Saleh.
Aaron Rodgers skipped the New York Jets’ mandatory minicamp for an “unexcused” reason, according to head coach Robert Saleh. “Aaron and I spoke before OTAs started,” Saleh told reporters on Tuesday. “He’s been very good in communication – he’s been here the entire time. “It’s unexcused but he had an event that was very important to him which he communicated,” added Saleh referring to Rodgers’ minicamp absence.
” Previous offseason workouts were voluntary, but skipping minicamp is a finable offense. While a veteran player missing mandatory minicamp isn’t unheard of, it is notable that Rodgers is absent after how his debut season with the Jets transpired. Rodgers missed the majority of the 2023 season after tearing his Achilles tendon on the four snaps of his first game for the team having arrived in the offseason with much fanfare.
