NFL World Reacts to Aaron Rodgers’s Injury in Jets Debut

The football world was in disbelief after Aaron Rodgers went down with an injury.

Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers went down with an injury on the first drive of his debut with the franchise after being sacked by Bills defensive end Leonard Floyd.

Rodgers could be seen getting up after the sack and attempting to walk off the injury, before sitting back down on the field as the training staff rushed to his aid.

He was helped off the field and escorted to the medical tent, from where a cart could be seen escorting him to the locker room.

The team reported that Rodgers had sustained an ankle injury on the play and is questionable to return to Monday’s game against Buffalo.

The NFL world was left in awe at Rodgers’ injury, with reactions pouring in on social media from football fans and media members alike.

They're carting Aaron Rodgers off the field less than five minutes into his first game as a Jet. Wow.

Realistically, the way Rodgers left the field I don’t expect him to come back tonight. So let’s stay positive. I’m glad we have Zach to come in and I’m glad he’s had the tutelage that he’s had with Aaron. I hope he’s got his scrambling shoes on tonight!! GO JETS!!!
