Aaron Rodgers is continuing to step up his recovery from a torn Achilles by putting in the work with a Sunday morning session at the New York Jets practice facility.
While his off-field views are so often at the forefront of everyone's minds, Rodgers' focus was on his pre-season preparations this weekend, as he headed out for another workout with his Jets teammates.
Rodgers has not played since the opening game of last season, when he tore his Achilles just four snaps into his New York Jets career.
In the clip, posted to X by the Jets, Rodgers can be seen throwing a pass to wide receiver Garrett Wilson, much to the delight of supporters.
Alongside the short clip, the caption read: 'A little Sunday morning @AaronRodgers12 and @GarrettWilson_V.'

Unsurprisingly, fans flooded the comments section with memes and replies, hailing the duo and getting excited for what could be to come in the next 12 months.
On Tuesday, the four-time NFL MVP also admitted that he believes he's now running faster than ever, as he enters what he hopes will be his first full season with the Jets.
Mail Sport has also been told that Rodgers is hoping to play for two or three more years at MetLife, despite his injury-riddled start to life in New York.
'He's on a mission,' Jets head coach Robert Saleh said last month. 'He's on a mission to do a lot of things that he wanted to do last year and he's not going to stop until he gets it done.'
Speaking on the 'I Can Fly Podcast' recently, Rodgers said he is 'excited' about his return to the field.
'I fell back in love with the game (after joining the Jets) and then I had it taken away after four plays. I miss being out there, I love competing,' he said.
Rodgers has accused Dr. Fauci of propelling STIs in the 1980s with the US government's help
'Football is my happy place. That's where I feel most in control of my athletic ability. I missed that last year, I really, really missed it. My heart was broken. I'm excited about taking the field one more time and – not life or death – going to battle with my guys.'
Earlier this week, video of the 40-year-old Rodgers from last month went viral after he claimed Dr. Fauci - the former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director and Chief Medical Advisor to the President - helped engineer the sexually transmitted infection epidemic of the '80s with the backing of the federal American government.
'The blueprint, the game plan was made in the 80s,' Rodgers said during a Zoom interview with the Look Into It podcast in March.
Fauci, who led USA's response to the COVID-19 pandemic under both Donald Trump and Joe Biden's administrations, previously dealt the AIDS epidemic, over 40 years ago. During that time, he was often criticized for the government's response to STIs as more than 100,000 victims died between 1981 and 1990.
'Create a pandemic, with a virus that's going wild,' Rodgers continued, adding that 'Fauci was given over $350 million to research this, to come up with drugs, new or repurposed to handle the AIDS pandemic.

'And all they came up with was AZT.'
'And if you do even a smidge of research — and I know, I'm not an epidemiologist, I'm not a doctor, I'm not an immunologist, whatever – I can read, though. And I can learn and look things up just like any normal person. I can do my own research, which is so vilified, to even question authority,' Rodgers then pointed out.
The one-time Super Bowl champion then tied Fauci's past controversies to the U.S. government's response to the coronavirus, which is blamed for more than a million deaths in America.
'But that was the game plan back then: create an environment where only one thing works. Back then, AZT. Now? Remdesivir,' Rodgers said without backing down, as he was alluding to antiviral medication created in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
