On the one-year anniversary of his Achilles tear and 10 years after his famous 'R-E-L-A-X' quote, Aaron Rodgers had a familiar request for Jets fans after the team's Week 1 loss.
Aaron Rodgers faced an uncertain playing future a year ago as he limped off the field with what turned out to be a torn Achilles tendon. On the one-year anniversary of his season-ending injury, the 40-year-old New York Jets quarterback is healthy and a game into his comeback. And his focus Wednesday was solely on preparing to play the Tennessee Titans — and not reflecting on all the disappointment and doubts from a year ago.
' Leading up to the game against the 49ers, Rodgers warned against the overreactions that would inevitably come from some fans and reporters. If the Jets won, he said, people would say they're going to the Super Bowl. A loss, and the 'same old Jets' talk that has permeated a few generations of faithful followers would be back in full force. Well, he was right.
