Social media sleuths are trying to piece together a seemingly awkward interaction between quarterback Aaron Rodgers and head coach Robert Saleh after the New York Jets scored their second touchdown of the game.

In the viral video, Saleh goes in to hug Rodgers, but the quarterback appears to push him back, says something to his head coach, and glares at him while walking away.
Since itβs the Jets and nothing can be normal with the franchise, the video immediately took off on X as people are trying to deduce if thereβs an issue between the two.
Not a good lip-reader. Can anyone make out what Rodgers said to Saleh? #JetUp pic.twitter.com/4CyeBlGmpq

It will most likely turn out to be a nothingburger, but social media canβt help but speculate.
