FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets coach Robert Saleh believes it's in the best interest of the team to play quarterback Aaron Rodgers in the final preseason game, history and injury risk be damned.
"You can't coach scared, you can't play scared," Saleh said Tuesday, confirming that Rodgers will start Saturday against the New York Giants. "You can slip out of your car and have something happen to you. Knock on wood, everyone will be fine."
Rodgers, 39, who hasn't played a preseason game since 2018, sat out the first three games.
