Ex-Jets star rips Aaron Rodgers for going after 'sentimental records,' wasting long drive in loss to Rams

Jets Owner Woody Johnson passed on Jerry Jeudy due to his Madden rating, and Aaron Rodgers has struggled in New York. Colin Cowherd asks if Aaron made a mistake joining the Jets.

Aaron Rodgers doesn’t seem to have too many people in his corner as the New York Jets’ 2024 season, and his first full year under center, nears its end.

Former New York Jets star linebacker Bart Scott took issue with Rodgers’ performance following the team’s 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Rodgers had 256 passing yards and one touchdown pass.

The issue stemmed from Rodgers trying to get touchdown pass No. 500. He is one touchdown pass away from hitting the achievement and joining Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Tom Brady as the only players with at least 500 touchdown passes.

Rodgers said he wished Davante Adams would have caught the third-quarter pass that may have been a touchdown. It ended a 13-play drive that lasted nearly 10 minutes.

Scott wasn’t happy with the whole situation.

"To have a 10-minute drive and end up with nothing," Scott said on the SNY postgame show. "And it’s because you’re going for records, right? Sentimental records. And you’re deciding who gets your record. And I think that’s – that’s despicable."
