Jets in talks with Packers, Aaron Rodgers
Jets in talks with Packers, Aaron Rodgers, sources say
The New York Jets have had conversations with the Green Bay Packers and with quarterback Aaron Rodgers this week regarding a potential trade of the four-time MVP to the Jets, according to sources. The sources said some of those conversations were expected to take place Tuesday, but that it's unclear as of Tuesday morning whether they will result in a trade. Rodgers still has not made any announcements about what he intends to do this season. It's still possible he decides to retire, or to stay in Green Bay. But if he still wants to play and he and the Packers agree it's time for him to play somewhere else, the Jets appear to be a realistic option. If the Jets are speaking directly with Rodgers, they and he would have had to secure the Packers' permission, as he is still under contract with Green Bay. So, the discussions Rodgers is having with the Jets indicate at least some openness on the part of the Packers to the idea of trading him there. But there are potential complications to a deal, including Rodgers' huge and complicated contract, that might have to be addressed to make sure both teams would be in compliance with the salary cap by the start of the league year next Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET. Rodgers is under contract through 2024 for $108.8 million. Technically, the contract, signed last March, runs through 2026, but 2025 and 2026 are considered "dummy" years for cap purposes. His deal includes a fully guaranteed $59.5 million this season, with $58.3 million coming in the form of an option bonus, payable before the start of the regular season. Because his bonus money is prorated, Rodgers wouldn't hobble the Jets' cap. He would count $15.8 million in 2023 and $32.5 million in 2024, cap-friendly for a player of his stature. The Packers would get hit with a $40.3 million "dead" charge in 2023 -- nearly $9 million more than he'd count if he were on the roster. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...rs-sources-say |

I think the Jets would be a great choice for Rodgers. They are a much better team than when Favre joined them. He would do wonders for that team, already loaded with talent and will surround him with more.
The Packers are a terrible organization that have wasted TWO HOF QBs! |

This is a team that donned "I support Mike Glennon White" t-shirts then dropped their final 6 games.
Lol.

Seems like a good fit. Those Jets players will have high expectations if Rogers comes to town.

The Packers GM is an idiot for not trading him last year.
Let's run it back with Aaron but trade Davonte?

Seriously, that puts them in with the likes of Trent Dilfer, Joe Flacco and Brad Johnson. Granted there are some Great QBs to have only won one but Green Bay had Two of the all time Greats for over a decade each. Id say they wasted them. |

New York media won't be so nice as that Green Bay media. This could turn out to be really fun to see.
