NFL Rumors: Jets Not Eyeing Philip Rivers, Roethlisberger After Aaron Rodgers' Injury

The New York Jets "do not have any plans to reach out to Tom Brady, Joe Flacco, Philip Rivers, Blake Bortles or Ben Roethlisberger," according to The Athletic's Dianna Russini.

Russini provided more insight into the Jets' approach to replacing Aaron Rodgers after the surefire Hall of Famer suffered a torn Achilles.

"Though this is Wilson's team, the Jets are exploring the veteran QB market," she reported. "They told each quarterback they spoke to that [Zach] Wilson is the starter and they would be coming in as a backup."

Russini listed Colt McCoy and Chad Henne as players New York has spoken with directly.
