As the 2024 NFL season kicks off, several major storylines are generating buzz. Aaron Rodgers returns to the New York Jets at age 40 after a devastating Achilles injury ended his last season prematurely, with hopes of leading the team back to the playoffs. The Kansas City Chiefs, fresh off another Super Bowl win, aim to replicate their defensive success by forcing opponents to throw against their strong secondary, starting with a rematch against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens, who led the AFC in 2023, will see significant changes, including the addition of running back Derrick Henry and a new defensive coordinator, Zach Orr. Meanwhile, the Ravens also report minimal injuries ahead of their season opener, which bodes well for their matchup against the Chiefs. Lastly, high school football in the Mid-Penn Conference is also capturing attention with standout performances and updated standings.
