Rodgers (ankle) was a full practice participant Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers has been banged up in recent weeks, but he's yet to miss a game and will make another start Sunday night in Pittsburgh. New Jets wideout and old friend Davante Adams (hamstring) was also a full practice participant Thursday and should be ready by Sunday night.

Rodgers (ankle) isn't slated to participate in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
That said, interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich noted that Rodgers is on track to play Sunday against the Steelers, with the quarterback thus likely to practice fully by the end of the week. Meanwhile, star wideout Davante Adams (hamstring) -- whom the Jets obtained in a trade with the Raiders on Tuesday -- is slated to be listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walk-through and is expected to play this weekend. Rodgers suffered a left low-ankle sprain in the third quarter of the Jets' Week 5 loss to the Vikings in London, but he proceeded to take every snap on offense in Monday's loss to the Bills while completing 23 of 35 pass attempts for 294 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

Rodgers completed 19 of 25 passes for 294 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Monday's 23-20 loss to the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers played well in the Jets' first game since firing head coach Robert Saleh and changing the offensive playcaller from Nathaniel Hackett to Todd Downing, but New York came up just short due to two missed field goals from Greg Zuerlein and numerous costly penalties on the offense. After tossing a five-yard touchdown pass to Garrett Wilson in the first quarter, Rodgers delivered his best play as a Jet to give the team a spark on the final play of the first half, connecting with Allen Lazard for a 52-yard Hail Mary touchdown. The Jets moved the ball well in the second half as Rodgers came six yards shy of his first 300-yard passing performance since Week 14 of the 2021 season, but they failed to build a lead and eventually ran out of chances when Mike Williams fell down on Buffalo's game-sealing interception. The desperation level will be high for Rodgers and the 2-4 Jets against the Steelers on SNF in Week 7.

Rodgers (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Monday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
There really never seemed to be any risk Rodgers would miss the primetime contest, especially after the shake-up to the coaching staff following the firing of head coach Robert Saleh. The Jets also replaced offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett with Todd Downing, who will be taking over play-calling duties for the dysfunctional offense. As a result, it's fair to assume the offense and Rodgers could look better, even if it's only a week, given the changes in New York.

Rodgers (ankle) remained limited in practice Friday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers has registered back-to-back limited practices as the Jets prepare for Monday's pivotal home game against the Bills, the winner of which will be in first place in the AFC East. He's dealing with a low-ankle sprain, but Rodgers may be over the hamstring issue that also has been bothering him, as it wasn't listed on Friday's injury report. He'll try to upgrade to full participation Saturday in an effort to avoid an injury designation.

Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Thursday that Rodgers (ankle/hamstring) will practice in a limited capacity but will be ready for Monday's divisional matchup against the Bills, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers is dealing with both a low-ankle sprain and hamstring injury in the aftermath of New York's 23-17 loss to the Vikings in London, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. The veteran signal-caller appeared to sustain at least the ankle issue during the third quarter of the Jets' loss to Minnesota, but he didn't ultimately miss a single of the team's 71 offensive snaps while attempting a season-high 54 passes. Monday's divisional contest against Buffalo will feature a transformed Jets team, with former head coach Robert Saleh having been fired and passing game coordinator Todd Downing slated to take over offensive playcalling duties, per Albert Breer of SI.com, but at the least Rodgers' availability doesn't seem to be in any jeopardy.

Head coach Robert Saleh said Monday that Rodgers' sprained left ankle will be examined further, but the Jets have been encouraged by all the preliminary evaluations of the injury, Ethan B. Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers is tending to a low-ankle sprain, which he appeared to sustain when he took a big hit on a third-down incompletion with 6:11 remaining in the third quarter of Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings. However, after a roughing the punter penalty extended the Jets' drive, Rodgers returned to the field for the next offensive play, and he ended up playing all 71 snaps in the loss while completing 29 of 54 attempts for two touchdowns, three interceptions and 244 yards. Though Saleh's comments suggest that Rodgers will be good to go for next Monday's game against the Bills, the veteran quarterback's practice participation still could be managed leading up to the contest.

Rodgers relayed after Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings that he's dealing with a low-ankle sprain, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers' status will thus be worth monitoring ahead of the Jets' Oct. 14 game against the Bills. Added context on that front will arrive no later than Thursday, when the team resumes practice.

Rodgers completed 29 of 54 passes for 254 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
The Jets fell behind 17-0 late in the second quarter, leading Rodgers to attempt a season-high 54 pass attempts. He put up decent stats based on that volume, but he was inefficient by posting 4.7 yards per attempt while still looking out of sync with many of his targets. Rodgers also threw three interceptions --including a game-sealing pick on a potential game-winning drive late in the fourth quarter -- in a game for only the sixth time in his career, four which transpired in 2017 or earlier. Positively, Rodgers has multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games and has reached 225 passing yards in each of his last three contests.

Rodgers (knee) isn't listed on Friday's injury report and will start Sunday's game against the Vikings in London, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rodgers was banged up in the Jets' Week 4 loss to Denver but didn't miss any snaps in that game and returned to full practice participation Thursday, suggesting he was never truly in danger of sitting out against Minnesota. Confirmation of his availability Friday will spare Rodgers' fantasy managers the headache of getting up early to check on his status before Sunday's 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
