Could the Jets run it back with Ulbrich and Rodgers next year?
One of the biggest decisions facing the New York Jets at the end of this season will be determining who their next head coach will be.
One candidate that will be considered is almost certainly interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich. Of note, Aaron Rodgers (whose future is uncertain in its own right) recently threw public support behind Ulbrich.
As further quoted by Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk:
“If a new G.M. comes in and they don’t retain ‘Brick,’ I need to fit in those plans,” Rodgers said.
Rodgers also made it clear that he wants Ulbrich to get the job.
“I’m definitely all in on ‘Brick,’” Rodgers said. “I love ‘Brick.’ But, again, that’s out of my control. I mean, I’m not gonna say, ‘Brick or nothing.’ You know, I need to see how I’m feeling. Obviously, I would love to play for ‘Brick’ again. He’s a fantastic human being. But, you know, there’s a lot of things that can change in the next six weeks. There could be some really good feelings coming out of this, or there could be wholesale changes.”
So, Rodgers wants Ulbrich. Maybe that will matter, maybe it won’t, but it likely bears watching in the weeks to come.
