Lurking behind the New York Jets’ 2024 season is a tremendous sense of urgency. Obviously, the primary reason is Aaron Rodgers’ age and possibly impending retirement, coupled with the hot seat of Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh. The Jets also have several key veterans on one-year deals at below-market value. That will leave them with many holes next season.
However, there’s also a deeper reason: the Jets have many players who will seek new contracts soon. Putting aside the Haason Reddick contract standoff, there are many other extensions the Jets will need to sort out sooner rather than later.
