That move is expected to be designated as a post-June 1st release, meaning, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, "the Jets would "carry his $23.5M cap hit until June 1, when it drops to $14M—saving $9.5M. However, they’d then absorb a $35M cap hit in 2026."

Aaron Rodgers is a four-time NFL MVP, Super Bowl champion and future first-ballot Hall of Famer. He still may have to wait until after the draft to find a new team for 2025.
