Aaron Rodgers reveals injury after Jets heartbreaking loss

Aaron Rodgers didn’t shy away from self-criticism after a tough performance in a 23-17 loss to the Vikings, but more concerning for the Jets is the status of Rodgers’ ankle.

Rodgers told reporters he has a low ankle sprain, though it’s not clear if that happened Sunday or was something he was dealing with.

Rodgers limped off the field after a sack in the third quarter, but quickly returned to the game without missing a play.

He had been dealing with knee issues, which led to the Jets removing third-stringer Adrian Martinez from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.

Although Rodgers made it through the entire game, he struggled for much of it, throwing a trio of picks — one of which was returned for a touchdown and another that ended the game.

“That was below my level,” Rodgers told reporters.

The Jets couldn’t run the ball at all, rushing for just 36 yards on 14 carries.
