Aaron Rodgers' first regular season game as a member of the New York Jets has been revealed hours ahead of the 2023 NFL Schedule Release Thursday (May 11) night.

The Jets will host their AFC East Division rival Buffalo Bills in their Week 1 matchup at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, September 11, the league announced Thursday morning.

".@AaronRodgers12 debut with the @nyjets? Week 1 on MNF vs. @JoshAllenQB and the @BuffaloBills," the NFL tweeted.

Last month, Rodgers was acquired by the Jets as part of a blockbuster trade with the Green Bay Packers, having previously spent his entire career with the franchise. The Bills have defeated the Jets in five of their eight matchups since quarterback Josh Allen's rookie season in 2018.
