The New York Jets are doubling down on Aaron Rodgers playing again this season despite a torn Achilles.
Jets coach Robert Saleh said he believes Rodgers will return to the lineup, citing the quarterback's own belief in himself.
"Aaron's a big boy, a grown man, and no one's going to know Aaron's body like Aaron knows his body," Saleh told reporters Wednesday. "And if he feels after all the doctors clear him—I'm sure there's a million of them, I have no idea—but if Aaron says he wants to play, he's going to play."
Rodgers is attempting an unheard-of comeback from the torn Achilles he suffered in a Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills.
