It's been business as usual this week for Jets defensive coordinator Kacy Rodgers, who was medically cleared Monday after dealing with a health scare.

Rodgers missed the past two games -- home wins over the Broncos and Colts -- while dealing with what coach Todd Bowles initially termed a serious illness.

Rodgers on Thursday spoke to reporters for the first time since Bowles announced the illness. Rodgers declined to detail his medical situation, but said he has been given the all clear to resume his normal work schedule, after undergoing a medical procedure.
