Jets' Aaron Rodgers Warned Against Returning from Injury This Season by Chad Johnson

Former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Johnson offered a word of warning to New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers this week amid Rodgers' attempt to return from a torn Achilles this season.

Speaking to TMZ Sports, Johnson expressed concern over Rodgers trying to expedite his recovery process:

"Don't do it," Johnson said. "You're going to re-injure yourself. It's too soon. ... There's no need to rush back."

Rodgers tore his Achilles on the Jets' fourth play from scrimmage in Week 1, and while such an injury has always been considered season-ending in nature, Rodgers is trying to make history.
