The Jets weren’t interested in providing a behind-the-scenes look at their decision to part ways with quarterback Aaron Rodgers as they took questions Tuesday for the first time since announcing their intent earlier this month.

Neither the coach nor GM offered much of a reason why they chose to move on from the future Hall-of-Fame quarterback, but both expressed a desire to win now, while holding onto the team's younger stars.

The New York Jets are aiming to win in 2025 without Aaron Rodgers. New general manager Darren Mougey said Tuesday the team never gave Rodgers any ultimatum or rules for him to return.
