Injuries are a nightmare for teams in the NFL. Not only do they derail teams from their game plan, but they can also have a negative impact on the season record of the team.

When Aaron Rodgers came down in the season opener of the New York Jets against the Buffalo Bills, the hearts of the fanbase, ownership, coaching staff, and front office, dropped. The hopes were high for the season, and the team had already faced a setback. But financially, the team already views this season as a win.

Prior to the commencement of this season, the team’s ticket sales rose, and the Jets were going to get their full money’s worth from Aaron Rodgers. Now that the quarterback has managed to accelerate on his path to recovery, the Jets are all set to bump ticket prices back up again.

Season ticket holders of the Jets have been asked to renew their tickets by the 15th of November, as opposed to the standard renewal time that was during the spring, as per the NY Post.

Recent videos of Aaron Rodgers recuperating sooner than expected have sent a wave of optimism amongst fans. Due to this, there has been a sudden surge in the demand for tickets and the team is ensuring that they make the most out of this.

The team has a waitlist of fans who are already waiting to be season-ticket holders for the team in the 2024 NFL season. In order to accommodate their requests, the team has asked existing ticket holders to renew earlier this year so that they will know how many new members the team can accept.

Aaron Rodgers could return towards the end of this season

The Jets have been steadily increasing prices since 2016, despite not having the best record on the football field. The one good thing about the team’s pricing is that they still have one of the cheapest tickets when compared to the pricing of other teams.

This year, the team’s ticket prices have witnessed a 33% surge on the secondary market. The games against teams such as the Bills, Chiefs, and Eagles cost fans dearly, as the prices were 60% higher on the secondary market.

Fans have full faith that Aaron Rodgers will stay in New York for the foreseeable future. The quarterback stated that he does intend to play for the team for a few years.

The team’s abysmal 3-3 record is not dampening the spirits of the fans, who are convinced that with Aaron Rodgers as the QB, the Jets are Super Bowl-bound. The stakes and hopes at MetLife Stadium have never been this high since it opened in 2010.

There is a fresh aura and a renewed sense of excitement amongst Jets fans because of Aaron Rodgers. The quarterback will definitely be looking forward to breaking the team’s 7-year drought of winning seasons.
