Aaron Rodgers is embracing his inner coach — and Jets should too
NY Post
C.J. Mosley hasn’t yet incurred the wrath of Aaron Rodgers.
The Jets linebacker, in his fifth season with the team and one of the elder statesmen in the locker room, isn’t one of the players who Rodgers has vociferously corrected or cajoled during the heat of the first few days of training camp.
But Mosley, who captains the other side of the ball from Rodgers, loves the look of the 40-year-old Hall of Fame-bound quarterback getting after his teammates in an effort to set a standard that hasn’t been seen around these parts in a long, long time.
Maybe ever.

He, too, is the highest-paid assistant coach in NFL history.
