Aaron Rodgers arrived at MetLife Stadium in a golf cart holding crutches Sunday and joined his New York Jets teammates before their game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The four-time NFL MVP attended a team meeting at the Jets’ hotel Saturday night, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the team didn’t announce Rodgers had rejoined his teammates.
The 39-year-old Rodgers hinted earlier this week during his weekly appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show” he could make his first public appearance since the injury if he was cleared by doctors to travel.It was unclear if he was referring to himself or pop superstar Taylor Swift, who was also expected to attend the game in support of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — or perhaps both.
“I would love to have him back, but whenever it is safe for him to travel,” coach Robert Saleh said Friday. “I know he wants to get back, but I'm not exactly sure where that is on the timeline.” “That would be awesome to have as good of a football mind as he is around the team for, you know, someone like me to be able to bounce my thoughts off and see what he’s thinking,” wide receiver Garrett Wilson said Friday. “To have him around, the energy, the aura that he comes with, I mean, it’s priceless, man. So as soon as we can get him back, his presence will be felt.Two days after the injury, Rodgers had surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles.
