Jets racking brains for gifts as Aaron Rodgers turns 40: ‘My Achilles?’

Life Begins at 40 on Saturday for Aaron Rodgers.

Associated Bank on X: "Wish Aaron Rodgers a "Happy Birthday!" with a  special edition birthday photobomb TODAY ONLY! http://t.co/LNzOpcZvT8  http://t.co/0SueRBodUG" / X

Gentlemen, start your birthday present engines.

“Well, I heard he likes dolphins and their love-making skills or sounds,” John Franklin-Myers told The Post, “so probably a radio or some type of stereo system for him to be able to listen to it as loud as he wants.”

Allen Lazard caught passes in Green Bay from Rodgers.

“Aaron’s a really good gift-giver,” Lazard told The Post. “Something I would give for him? I’ll probably give some flowers. I think he would enjoy some flowers. I know he’s a big fan of flowers.”

Garrett Wilson thought long and hard about it.

“Maybe a bottle of something … a cigar … I gotta get him an exclusive cigar that you can only get if you know this guy,” he said. “I don’t know, man, that’s a good question. I gotta get him something.”

Wilson was informed that this is the big 4-0.

“That makes it a big deal, I gotta go get him like something with a 40 on it,” he said, “you know, 40 ounce. I might go get him a 40 ounce.”

C.J. Uzomah could look across the locker room and see Rodgers seated behind several boxes at his locker. He first mentioned the impossible birthday present present for him.

“My Achilles?” Uzomah said, and smiled.

He thought about it more and said: “I think you can swag him out a little bit more, he’s got those really good orthotic shoes, but he can spruce that up a little bit. He’s got that old man swag, spruce that up a little bit, we can turn back the clock a little bit on father time there. As far as the weekend goes, obviously get the dub and get his spirits going a little bit.”

Tim Boyle was a backup to Rodgers in Green Bay.

I’ve had a few Christmases and birthdays with him, and I think the thing that means the most to him is just something small that comes from the heart that he knows is personal to us,” Boyle said. “I’ve actually thought about it a little bit, but just something through our relationship, maybe a photo, or something that he can hang on to that’ll never … a moment, or a relationship that we’ve had I think will be good.”

C.J. Mosley had a thought. “Probably a nice bottle of wine or a nice bottle of tequila,” he said. He referenced Rodgers dropping a tequila bottle on the sideline prior to Jets-Chargers and added: “I actually have that same tequila bottle at home, so he does have good taste, I can say that.”

Solomon Thomas seconded that emotion: “He likes food. I’d probably get him a gift card to a restaurant … or maybe a nice bottle of wine, I’ll get him a nice bottle of wine. He said he likes Italian wine, so I’ll get him maybe a bottle of Sassicaia.”

There is no media access on Saturday. “I’m sure there’ll be some nice decorations in the locker for his birthday tomorrow,” Thomas Morstead said.

Sauce Gardner gifted Rodgers a green-and-white 8 necklace from “Al the Jeweler” in training camp. “I would have to think,” Sauce said.

Uzomah ruled out the possibility of sending an exotic dancer to the team hotel on Saturday night. “Back in the old day, maybe,” he said. “Before social media you probably could.”

Tony Adams: “What don’t he have? I’m gonna have to ask him.”

Rodgers can only hope that Life Begins at 40.

“Dang, 40 playing this game? It’s a blessing to be playing this game that long at a high level like he has,” Adams said. “He’s a unicorn.”

Said Quincy Williams: “What does a man that will have everything want for his birthday?

“Probably to play.”

That is wishing upon a star on Dec. 3. For now, The Post offers some suggestions:

A Taylor Swift album would work. Rodgers was seen grooving on Memorial Day weekend at one of her MetLife concerts.

Ayahuasca is not considered a PED by the NFL, and if using it helps him endure watching the Jets offense on the sideline, it would undoubtedly be much appreciated.

A Happy Birthday video from Liev Schreiber, the Voice of God whom Rodgers met during the filming of “Hard Knocks.”

Rodgers once bought his fellow quarterbacks undergarments that male strippers would wear as a Christmas gift in Green Bay, so turnabout would be fair play.

An old lamp without light bulbs for those occasions when Rodgers feels compelled to retreat into the darkness.

Better yet: an all-expenses paid, three-day “Healing Chakra” retreat in the Catskills.

Happy Birthday, Aaron Rodgers.
