Aaron Rodgers throws no-look pass to Garrett Wilson at Jets OTAs image

Aaron Rodgers is having a lot of fun this offseason.

The veteran New York Jets quarterback looks fully healthy following his Achilles injury in Week 1 of the 2023 season. He's been slinging the rock all summer long and just unloaded another ridiculous no-look pass at Jets' organized team activities on Thursday.

Rodgers unleashed a throw while he looked the other way as third-year wideout Garrett Wilson crossed the field uncovered. It was vintage Rodgers as he enters his Year 41 season in the NFL and third with the Jets.

This isn't the first time Rodgers threw a no-look pass at practice this summer. He connected with Xavier Gipson on a long touchdown pass in late May. Easy stuff for the four-time MVP quarterback.

While these types of plays aren't expected of Rodgers in the regular season, it's nice to see him show off a bit in practice following the devastating 2023 campaign. The Jets made sure to surround Rodgers with even more talent as well with the addition of four new offensive linemen, two new wide receivers and two new running backs to go along with the already-talented roster.

The Jets need Rodgers to play at an MVP season if they want to break their 13-season playoff drought. Rodgers is giving them and the fans every reason to have hope in 2024.
