Quinnen Williams rips NY Jets over Aaron Rodgers decision, deletes social media

The NY Jets officially made their Aaron Rodgers decision on Sunday, as reports suggest the team is expected to move on from the four-time MVP this offseason. The decision has been met with conflicting opinions.

Some believe the Jets made the right decision, seeing it as the right time for both sides to move on. Others argue that Rodgers still has plenty left in the tank and should be the Jets' starting quarterback in 2025. Count Quinnen Williams among those who agree with the latter.

Williams posted a series of tweets on Sunday taking shots at the Jets following the Rodgers report before proceeding to delete his X (formerly Twitter) account entirely.

Williams initially reacted with a now-deleted post saying, "Another rebuild year for me I guess," along with a rolling-eyes emoji. He later doubled down on his disapproval of the Rodgers decision by posting a thumbs-down emoji. It seems pretty clear where Williams stands.

Quinnen Williams is not happy with the NY Jets about their Aaron Rodgers decision

FOX Sports insider Jay Glazer confirmed on Sunday that the Jets have informed Rodgers he is not in their plans for the 2025 season. It's unclear if Rodgers still intends to play next season, but if he does, it will not be as a member of the Jets.

The Jets will have a new starting quarterback in 2025 as the Rodgers era finishes as one of the biggest disappointments in franchise history. Despite joining a team with legitimate Super Bowl aspirations, Rodgers managed to win just five games (technically six) in two years.

Rodgers' health concerns, increasing age, and financial implications made it a straightforward decision for a Jets team hoping to usher in a new era with Aaron Glenn and Darren Mougey in 2025. The Jets want to start fresh next season.

The decision clearly isn't going over well with the team's start defensive tackle, however, and it's safe to say others in the locker room feel the same way. Quincy Williams and Jermaine Johnson both publicly campaigned for Rodgers to return in the weeks leading up to Sunday's decision.

The decision to part ways with Rodgers is likely in the best interest of the organization moving forward, even if the team will be forced to deal with a few headaches in the short term.

Glenn and his coaching staff face the unenviable task of uniting the locker room under a new regime. Rodgers' reputation still carries significant weight, and for some players, moving on may be easier said than done.

It will be up to Glenn to command the locker room and establish a new identity for the team with Rodgers no longer in the building. That should probably start with keeping internal frustrations off of social media.
