Cameras caught New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers doing something extremely gross during his team’s humiliating road loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on “Sunday Night Football.”
There was plenty of hype around the Jets heading into Week 7’s prime-time clash. Last week, New York granted another one of Aaron Rodgers’ wishes by acquiring old friend and All-Po wide receiver Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders, finally reuniting the former Green Bay Packers.
But little went right for the Jets, who surrendered 31 unanswered points to Russell Wilson and company in a 37-15 defeat. But oh, the score itself was far from the only humiliating aspect for Rodgers.
Cameras also caught Rodgers picking his nose and eating his booger late in the game (did the four-time league MVP really think cameras wouldn’t catch this?)

What can we say? It was just a miserable day all-around for Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, whose playoff hopes are on thin ice after a fourth straight defeat. Now at 2-5, the Jets probably have to finish 8-2 to qualify for the postseason.
Rodgers completed 24 pass attempts for 276 yards, a touchdown and two game-changing interceptions. Adam wasn’t much of a factor in his Jets debut, catching just three passes for 30 yards.
Aaron Rodgers & Jets Have Disappointed Through Seven Weeks
Well, the second act of Rodgers’ career certainly hasn’t gone as expected. The 2024 Jets are another tough reminder that not every QB can achieve immediate success with a second team the way Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Brett Favre and Joe Montana all did.
Rodgers is struggling behind a lackluster offensive line, questionable coaching and an inconsistent defense. Wide receivers Garrett Wilson and Mike Williams haven’t been able to get open, and it’s clear that Rodgers still has a long way to go in getting on the same page as his receivers.
