Aaron Rodgers to Make Jets Debut Behind Shaky O-Line

All eyes will be on Aaron Rodgers for his debut in New York, but the real deciding factor in the game could be the Jets’ offensive line.

Buffalo Bills - SIC score 87.1

Last year’s AFC East champions enter the game with minimal injury issues. Von Miller is the main absence on the defense, as free safety Micah Hyde is off the injury report with his back issue and will play.

In their last matchup with the Jets, the Bills won 20-12 in Buffalo.

New York Jets - SIC score 81.8

Aaron Rodgers - SIC score 90

Rodgers’ calf injury from early in training camp is not a concern and he should have full mobility in and out of the pocket.

Offensive Line Run - SIC score 66.8

This is New York’s lowest health score and the biggest concern heading into the game. Three offensive line positions receive downgrades because of injury issues, including LT Duane Brown, RG Alijah Vera-Tucker and RT Mekhi Becton.

Offensive Line Pass - SIC score 77.8

The Jets’ passing score received a similar downgrade because of injury issues for both starting tackles.
