Contrary to a previous report, the Green Bay Packers are not looking for multiple first-round picks for quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Packers and New York Jets continue to negotiate on a Rodgers trade, but nothing has been agreed on yet, according to sources. The Athletic's Matt Schneidman also reported on Wednesday that Rodgers hasn't told Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst that he wants to be traded to the Jets. It seems like a formality at this point, but it's a box that needs to be checked off for a trade to eventually become official. The Rodgers circus continues, and the Jets also signed receiver Allen Lazard on Tuesday to further entice Rodgers to come play for them. If the 39-year-old QB does go to the Jets, he'll have more offensive weapons at his disposal.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee podcast that he intends to play for the New York Jets in 2023. The 39-year-old said he made the decision Friday and he is not who is holding up the trade. Green Bay's front office is looking to sort out the compensation, but it seems as if the trade will eventually go down. The Jets just signed wide receiver Allen Lazard and are reportedly eyeing tight end Marcedes Lewis to join Rodgers in New York. Garrett Wilson's ceiling will be raised by Rodgers, but Lazard's presence could mean bad things for Elijah Moore.
The Green Bay Packers are likely to want multiple first-round picks if they are going to trade future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets this offseason. The Jets would also have to restructure Rodgers' deal for a trade to happen, which is part of the reason why no official trade has been announced. It's highly likely the Jets are balking at giving up two first-round picks for a 39-year-old signal-caller that might only play one more season in the NFL. Rodgers also gave the Jets a wish list of players -- they already signed one in receiver Allen Lazard on Tuesday -- that he'd like to see in New York if he's to head there as well. This is a fluid situation that could take much more time to complete despite Rodgers himself saying it wouldn't be long before something is done.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has provided the New York Jets a wish list of free agents that he would like them to acquire, according to sources. The list includes Randall Cobb, Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis and Odell Beckham Jr. The Jets already inked Lazard to a four-year, $44 million deal on Tuesday and have been rumored to be interested in both Cobb and Lewis. It sounds as though Rodgers has already made up his mind that he wants to keep playing, but for the Jets. New York already has receivers Garrett Wilson, Corey Davis and Elijah Moore, among others, so the Jets won't have a ton of playing time left to go around for the likes of Cobb, Lewis and OBJ if they choose to sign them. Rodgers will have more targets to work with in New York if he indeed is traded to the Jets.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has not informed the Packers or the New York Jets on where he wants to play in 2023, and no trade compensation has been worked out between the two teams as of Monday. When asked about his playing future recently, Rodgers said, "Stay tuned. It won't be long. There's a time and a time limit for all this." The whole NFL world continues to wait. The Jets remain interested in acquiring him and the Packers remain interested in trading Rodgers in the right deal. The Jets remain the favorites to land the future Hall of Famer, but in the meantime, they can't commit to much, if anything, in free agency this week. Rodgers had one of his worst seasons as a professional in 2022, and although he'd have better weapons in New York, a move to the Jets wouldn't guarantee a return to MVP form.
