When the New York Jets signed Aaron Rodgers in the offseason, it was a sign that they were tired of mediocrity.
After 12 straight seasons without a playoff berth, it was time to make some drastic changes, starting with the quarterback position.
Enter Rodgers, a four-time league MVP with plenty of postseason experience, who is hungry for another chance at a Super Bowl ring.
The Jets recently began training camp, the first time Rodgers was publically seen with his new teammates.
After seeing this just a few days, head coach Robert Saleh said, “This guy glows in the dark,” according to the Jets via the NFL on ESPN.

Many believe that Rodgers’ new supporting cast is already one of the best in his career.
He has the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year in Garrett Wilson, and the team has made several other investments in this offense.
Saleh is a highly-regarded coach across the league entering his third season with the Jets.
The addition of Rodgers is not only a step in the right direction for the Jets to make the playoffs but also a big reason Saleh may keep his job.
Despite being highly regarded, the NFL is a “What have you done for me lately?” league.
If Saleh isn’t able to garner enough wins this season with Rodgers as his starting quarterback, it could signal the beginning of the end of his time in New York.
However, it could make a difference if the Jets can break their playoff drought, even winning a playoff game in the process.
