Aaron Rodgers marked his 41st birthday by reaffirming his position as the starting quarterback for the New York Jets, amid speculation about potential changes. Interim coach Jeff Ulbrich expressed confidence in Rodgers, emphasizing his capability to lead the team despite recent struggles.

The Jets, now at 3-9 after a loss to Seattle, face mounting pressure as they risk missing the playoffs for the 14th consecutive year. Rodgers acknowledged his own shortcomings while also highlighting team issues.

Despite injuries impacting his performance, Ulbrich remains optimistic about Rodgers' ability to perform at a high level. The Jets' special teams showed promise with a kickoff return for a touchdown, but the overall team performance continues to falter.
