start<\/a> training in early December, with the hope of playing again this season. He is said to be targeting the Dec. 24 game against the Washington Commanders.<\/p>\n\u201cHe\u2019s in the building,\u201d Saleh said, adding that he had no information on a potential practice date.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we receive a medical certificate stating that he is unharmed, then he will be allowed to train,\u201d the coach added.<\/p>\n
This is a simplistic view of the situation. Clearly, a risk-reward decision of this magnitude will be multi-layered and involve more than just physicians. Saleh said Rodgers would make the final decision, saying the four-time MVP would play if he wanted to \u2014 if he was medically cleared.<\/p>\n
Rodgers, who turns 40 on Dec. 2, would take a chance, given the state of the offensive line. The Jets started a league-high eight combinations and 12 different players. They allowed 47 sacks. Left tackles Mekhi Becton (sprained ankle) and Duane Brown (hip) could return for the next game, Saleh said. Right guard Wes Schweitzer (calf) is also a possibility.<\/p>\n
Boyle, who started the season on the practice squad after being released at the end of the preseason, was under duress throughout Friday’s game. He completed 27 of 38 passes, but for only 179 yards.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor the most part, I felt like I had a good look and got the ball out of my hands,\u201d Boyle said after the game. \u201cI tried not to take any sacks, but that\u2019s part of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n
The offense was so restricted that, aside from the Hail Mary at the end of the first half, Boyle did not attempt a pass longer than 10 yards until the fourth quarter, when the game was out of control. scope.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously there are things he could have done better,\u201d Saleh said. “There were some things that he had no control over, and I know he struggled there, and we were able to answer some calls that we were hoping to make. We were able to execute a lot of different things that we wanted to execute. … It just didn’t come to fruition.”<\/p>\n
Embattled offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is apparently in no danger of losing his job. Hackett received a vote of confidence from Saleh after the match. Saleh said \u201cthere was no consideration\u201d in removing Hackett as a playcaller.<\/p>\n
Hackett has a close relationship with Rodgers, which is likely a factor in job security. Boyle thanked Rodgers for helping him during the game, calling Rodgers a “peaceful, calming presence to me.” If Rodgers has his way, the roles could soon be reversed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
