The NFL has added another blemish Aaron RodgersSeason 2024.
The New York Jets entered the season as a team expected to make the playoffs.
That was the vision for the 2023 team, but Rodgers tore his Achilles in the fourth game of that season.
Despite poor quarterback play, the 2023 team was mathematically alive for the playoffs in late December and finished with a 7-10 record.

But this season is somehow worse. The Jets are 4-12 heading into the season finale.
And as the Jets prepare for their final game of the season, Rodgers, a four-time MVP, was fined $11,255 for a late hit against Buffalo Bills in the 17th week.
The goal came after Rodgers threw a pick. It was hardly a threatening tackle, but Rodgers was flagged for it.
It’s been a rollercoaster ride for Rodgers, who has looked like a 41-year-old quarterback coming off a serious injury, but has shown flashes of turning back the clock.

But it seems fitting that Rodgers was fined as arguably the most disappointing season in franchise history comes to an end.
The Jets trailed 42-0 at one point last week, but managed to find the end zone twice after Tyrod Taylor replaced Rodgers in the fourth quarter.
