The acquisition of Aaron Rodgers has done a number of positive things for the New York Jets. It’s changed the narrative around the team, and that momentum is shifting over to analysts when making projections for the 2023 season.
The latest projection to praise the Jets is NFL Network’s Cynthia Frelund’s Game Theory model.
