Aaron Rodgers, who recently joined the New York Jets, made a splash by launching a stunning deep pass to Garrett Wilson on the very first play of Thursday’s, July 25, practice. However, the thrill of the moment was overshadowed by a fiery exchange between the two stars during the Jets' fourth practice session.
