Rodgers was near the top with 45-to-1 odds to win the tournament, where American Century Investments is celebrating their 25th anniversary as title sponsor, while Teller was expected to finish low with 2,000-to-1 odds of coming out on top.

Teller says he'll see Rodgers when he makes his debut with the Jets this season. "I'll be at that game when Philly goes to New York," the Pennsylvania native promises.
