JETS OPEN 21-DAY PRACTICE WINDOW FOR AARON RODGERS

The Jets' season took a big hit when quarterback Aaron Rodgers suffered a torn Achilles just minutes into his first start with the team. Now it's looking more and more likely that the Jets could get Rodgers back in the very near future. On Wednesday, the team opened the 21-day practice window for Rodgers. As a result of the move, Rodgers will now be able to practice with the team for the next 21 days and not count towards the active roster. At the conclusion of those 21 days, Rodgers would have to be activated to the 53-man roster or revert back to injured reserve for the remainder of the 2023 season.

Here's more from Tyler Sullivan on when Rodgers could potentially return:

"A Rodgers return has been building for the past few weeks. The four-time NFL MVP had been seen throwing pregame and moving around with no noticeable limp in recent weeks. He had also been reportedly targeting a mid-December return, specifically New York's Christmas Eve matchup with the Washington Commanders."

The Hot Ticket

Jazz at Grizzlies, 8 p.m. | TV: NBA TV

The Pick: Jazz +4.5 (-110)

Key trend: The Jazz are 6-2 ATS over their last eight games.

SportsLine expert Larry Hartstein is 12-7 in his last 19 NBA ATS picks.

"Utah has already beaten Memphis twice this month, and the Jazz are 6-0-1 ATS in the past seven matchups. They're sharing the ball well, as they showed in notching 31 assists while upsetting New Orleans on Monday for the second straight time. The Grizzlies are 0-8 at home and have limited options without Ja Morant, Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard. Even with Utah leading scorer Lauri Markkanen (hamstring) out, the Jazz should stay close if not win outright."
