Coach Robert Saleh said he spoke to the star quarterback and that Rodgers is attending to a commitment"very important to him" New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and edge rusher Haason Reddick are not participating in the team's mandatory minicamp this week, unexcused absences that subject both to fines.
“Aaron and I spoke before OTAs started,” Saleh said. “He's been very good with communication. He's been here the entire time. It's inexcused, but he had an event that was very important to him — which he communicated.” “I've been in this league long enough to know it's a next-man up mentality,” said Taylor, who signed with the Jets — his seventh NFL team — in March.“I know he's working his tail off,” running back Breece Hall said. “Whether he's here or not, I know he's all-in.”
“I appreciated the dialogue," Saleh said. “He's in a really good place, mentally, working his tail off, like we already know. But he's choosing to sit out this one.” Taylor, who'll turn 35 in August, has gotten used to being the oldest player in his team's quarterbacks room the past several seasons. With the Jets, the 40-year-old Rodgers holds that distinction.
