Thank goodness this recreation of “hard to get” has lastly come to its conclusion, and together with it one much less motive for Aaron Rodgers to seem on my timeline. The deal has been accomplished between the Green Bay Packers and the New York Jets.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter is reporting that Rodgers will probably be a Jet for the 2023 season. The Packers despatched him to New York together with a fifth-round decide. In return, they moved up from the No. 15 to the No. 13 total decide on this week’s NFL Draft. They additionally acquired a sixth-round decide, and a first-rounder in 2024 if Rodgers performs in 65 % of the Jets’ performs.
I don’t understand how a lot needed to be conceded on either side to get this deal achieved, and I don’t care. The Packers have been leaking information about being by means of with Rodgers for months. Now there will probably be no extra experiences in regards to the sides getting nearer. No extra information of Rodgers’ buddies getting despatched to the Jets whereas all of us anticipate the plain to occur.
He is with the Jets. The Jets are a superb soccer group that may probably get higher with Rodgers behind middle. It is probably going that the Packers are going to take a huge step backwards, no matter how nicely Christian Watson performed on the finish of the 2022 season.
It will simply be good to have a information cycle with one much less pervasive human eye roll emoji.
