Aaron Rodgers has changed his thinking recently and is working toward returning to the field for the New York Jets this season regardless of the team's record, according to a report.

The Jets enter Friday's game against the Miami Dolphins at 4-6 and on the outside of the AFC playoff picture.

Rodgers recently said that he was targeting a mid-December return to the Jets after suffering a serious Achilles injury in Week 1. 

The quarterback recently sent the Jets footage of him working out and the video "blew their minds."
