Contrary to his belief, Aaron Rodgers did announce on Wednesday that he intends to play for the New York Jets next season. All that needs to happen is a trade from the Green Bay Packers.
The future Hall of Famer represents a significant upgrade for a Jets offense that trotted out the likes of Zach Wilson, Mike White and Joe Flacco at quarterback last season. Rodgers will be surrounded by a young, talented cast – Garrett Wilson, Breece Hall, Elijah Moore and others – and has a stout defense that ranked fifth in total defensive DVOA in 2022.
As of Wednesday afternoon, when Rodgers went on the Pat McAfee Show, the Jets were +1500 to win the Super Bowl, which is tied for the sixth-lowest odds with the Cowboys.
Is this everything the Jets need to win their first Super Bowl since 1969? Well, not so fast … Action Network's Chris Raybon and Brandon Anderson aren't exactly sold on Rodgers' Jets quite yet. Read their analysis on the move and how it affects Jets futures below.
