This week, it was reported that the New York Jets would be featured on the upcoming season of HBO’s hit docuseries Hard Knocks.
The show follows teams during training camp and gives a behind-the-scenes look at the personalities and talent on the team, and how the organization operates, and you know cameras will want to get plenty of footage of new quarterback Aaron Rodgers who will be going through his first training camp with a team not named the Packers.
But how does Rodgers feel about it?
Rodgers briefly commented on the decision to have the Jets on Hard Knocks at the American Century Championship, and he did not seem too thrilled.
“I understand the appeal with us. Obviously, there are a lot of eyes on me, a lot of eyes on our team, a lot of expectations for our squad,” Rodgers said in an interview with KPIX. “They forced it down our throats, and we have to deal with it.”

The Jets report to training camp in one week on July 19, and the HBO cameras will be ready to capture the player arrivals and get right to work. The Jets hold their training camp at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center in Florham Park, New Jersey.
Let’s see if Rodgers warms up to the cameras and what kind of shenanigans he decides to pull.
