Aaron Rodgers ruled out with Achilles injury, team says X-rays negative

It was a sight no Jets fans wanted to see.

And it happened within the first four minutes of their season opener.

Aaron Rodgers, the Jets' new superstar quarterback, had to be removed from Monday night's game against Buffalo after being sacked by Bills LB Leonard Floyd.

There was a cart waiting for Rodgers by the team's medical tent on the sideline. The team then announced that he is ruled out with an ankle injury, although X-rays came back negative.

Backup Zach Wilson has taken over at quarterback.

"He's dealing with an ankle right now, we're getting him checked out. We'll know more later," Jets head coach Robert Saleh said in a TV interview with ESPN during the game. "We still have a hell of a group of guys, and, obviously Aaron's a big part of that, but we still have an unbelievable defense, we got a lot of great guys on offense and we'll get this thing done."
