Jets coach Robert Saleh and key veteran leaders said Wednesday they had no problem with injured quarterback Aaron Rodgers calling out the team for its sideline squabbles.
"Yeah, he's trying to be encouraging," McGovern said."We shouldn't be having scuffles on the sideline, whether it's positive or negative. It brings the wrong energy. If it comes off in that kind of demeanor, it can cause panic and you just don't need that around."in April. His Week 1 injury took him away from the team, but he still wants to stay involved even though he's 2,800 miles away.
But it's an unusual dynamic to have an injured player, outside the building, with such a high profile platform to share weekly thoughts on the team. Saleh doesn't see it as an unhealthy situation. "No, that's not going to be an issue," he said."I don't think it should be. He's part of this team, and he's got thoughts, and I think he does a really good job articulating those thoughts in a manner that's respectful."
Reed said they appreciate Rodgers' leadership, whether he's present or on the other side of the country. "Oh, for sure," Reed said."Aaron, he definitely left an imprint in this locker room. We have the utmost respect for Aaron and whatever he says. Everybody listens."
