FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Aaron Rodgers believes he’s where he needs to be. And the New York Jets’ new quarterback thinks they can do big things together.

The four-time NFL MVP was introduced by the team Wednesday to much fanfare in the team’s auditorium, filled with media, coaches and team staffers — flanked on the stage by coach Robert Saleh to his left and general manager Joe Douglas on his right.

“This is a surreal day for me,” the 39-year-old Rodgers said.

Rodgers is well aware of the Jets’ playoff drought, which at 12 seasons is the longest active skid in the NFL.
