CBS Sports reported, "As of now, New York couldn't outright release or trade Rodgers immediately following 2024 without paying an exorbitant price; cutting or trading him would result in a loss of $25.5 million, or roughly the majority of the Jets' entire projected 2025 salary cap, pending additional cuts. That won't happen.

Rodgers gave the Jets an seven-point lead early in the fourth quarter when he hit Kenny Yeboah for an 11-yard TD. The QB said after the game that he thought the Jets were going to go for two points to try to take a nine-point lead and was surprised when the coaches ran out the kicking team to take an eight-point lead.
