Garrett Wilson Doesn't Hold Back on Aaron Rodgers' Possible Exit

The New York Jets are staring at another dismal campaign with a 3-9 record ahead of their clash with the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.

A loss would officially eliminate the Jets from the playoffs, extending the longest active drought in the NFL to 14 seasons.

Third-year wide receiver Garrett Wilson aimed at helping the Jets make a much-awaited leap this year, aided by the return to full health of star quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

While Wilson has been impressive with 763 receiving yards and five touchdowns in 12 games, success has eluded the Jets once again.

In a report, ESPN's Rich Cimini said the 24-year-old Wilson is "frustrated" with the team's "dysfunction on offense," even with Rodgers at center.

When asked if the four-time MVP's possible exit after the campaign would affect his decisions moving forward, Wilson was pretty stern with his stance.

"No impact," said the former Offensive Rookie of the Year in the report. "I've been here with Aaron, and I've been here without him. No impact."

He added that he's ready to roll with anyone, even if, as Cimini noted, a wide receiver's "livelihood can heavily depend on the quality of his quarterback."

"Whoever they send me out there with, I'm going to put my best foot forward and try to show that I belong, that I'm one of the guys in this league that's a great player," added Wilson.

"I just have to figure out a way to prove that. I thought it would be easier this year. It hasn't been."

Wilson, who was drafted by the Jets as the No. 10 overall pick in 2022, is eligible for a new contract in 2025.

The 41-year-old Rodgers, meanwhile, signed a three-year, $112.5 million contract with the Jets in 2023.
