Mostly during primetime games. I don't think I see them during regular games...

I know the cap isn't real in the NFL, but these options look pretty bad for the Jets next year
Another season of Aaron Rodgers would mean far-reaching salary-cap implications for the incoming regime -- a major factor in the decision on whether to retain the future Hall of Fame quarterback.

Rodgers is signed for 2025 (he has four void years, through 2029), but there's no guaranteed money remaining in his deal. That will help mitigate the cap ramifications when he's gone, but the damage still will be significant.

Let's examine the financial pros and cons of another year.

If Rodgers doesn't play for the Jets in 2025 -- if he's cut or retires -- the Jets have a $49 million "dead" charge, which is an accumulation of pro-rated bonuses from past years. That's a substantial cap hit, more than double his cap charge if he's on the roster ($23.5 million).

The $49 million can be spread over two years by designating him a post-June 1 cut -- $14 million in 2025 and $35 million in 2026. For long-term planning purposes, it might make sense to absorb the full hit next year, creating cap flexibility for the future.

Now let's say Rodgers returns in 2025. While the cap charge ($23.5 million) would be manageable, they'd have to pay him a $35 million option bonus by the first regular-season game in addition to a $2.5 million base salary.

Now, the downside. If he does come back for one year, the dead charge balloons to $63 million in 2026. The reason for the increase is the option bonus, which would be pro-rated for cap purposes over the length of the contract (the void years) and then accelerate into 2026 upon his departure.

Once again, they could use the June 1 designation, but then you're talking about spreading money into 2027 -- $21 million in 2026 and $42 million in 2027. Does a new regime really want to be paying off the Rodgers bill until 2027?

They could renegotiate the $35 million option bonus if they want to keep him, but that would only push more money into the back end of the deal -- hardly ideal. What about a straight pay cut? Rodgers took a voluntary $34 million pay cut last year, so it seems unlikely that he'd want to give back more money.

Rodgers' future will be a talking point for the next few months. He said he's undecided on whether he'll play next year. If he does, the Jets are his No. 1 option.

"I'm open to everything and attached to nothing," Rodgers said.

Maybe so, but that massive cap hit is attached to him.

This just isn’t passing the smell test. Bills Mafia are drinkers for sure but they aren’t known for being classless or rude to opposing fans. Even if they were, I find it hard to believe a fan would knowingly push a child down the stairs, even if the fan was drunk and the girl was wearing the opposing team’s jersey.

Something about this doesn’t feel right. Is there any proof?

All I could find was AB84 pumping up a gofundme for the kid.

It wouldn’t surprise me if some doofus pushed her.

It also wouldn’t surprise me if the 2 feet of snow and continued snow fall through the game, she fell down a couple of stairs and they made up that someone pushed her.



They left early? Sorry, if someone pushes my non-cancer surviving kid down the stairs, there’s gonna be a scene and a police report one way or another, let alone one that just beat cancer. But maybe I’m just a protective dad.

I know what you mean. Like, obviously drunk idiots are capable of just about anything, even something this despicable. But...okay. Regardless of what she was wearing. Regardless if I saw her sign. Regardless if I know her or not. If I see an 8 year old girl get shoved down the stairs, the person that shoved her is not walking out of the stadium of their own accord. They will be leaving with security or the police. No question. So why didn't others around hold the dbag, or get security? There'd be a scene around the event, for sure. I can't imagine something like that happening, then nothing else happening after.

Not ready to say that this isn't true, but like you said, something doesn't feel right about it.

The dude who pushed her could have gotten thrown out and an 8 year old may also be shaken enough not to want to stick around.
