When asked by reporters about those comments on Monday, Rodgers declined to respond, other than to say, "I'm going to talk about it tomorrow on the (McAfee) show."

Rodgers also said he's looking forward to being the Jets' starting quarterback next season − and possibly longer.

"I would like this to be more than just next year," he said.
