Jets QB Aaron Rodgers is skipping the entire Jets minicamp

Remember when Aaron Rodgers said the Jets needed to get rid of all the distractions? Well, what in the world does he have to say now? New York has been hard at work at their mandatory minicamp, but Rodgers is nowhere to be seen.

Rodgers is missing the action for what Robert Saleh had said is an 'important event' for him. However, with Rodgers coming off his season-ending injury, a lot of Jets fans are not happy with him just bailing on the team this week.

#Jets coach Robert Saleh told reporters that QB Aaron Rodgers is not at minicamp today, an unexcused absence that is subject to fines. Saleh said it was for an event "important to him."

Pass-rusher Haason Reddick, who wants a new contract, is also not present.

Yes, all that matters is that Rodgers should be good to go for training camp and Week 1, but him being away from the team like this doesn't send a great message. Saleh can't be too pleased about this either.
