Despite an unstable performance in the NFL, Aaron Rodgers‘ New York Jets are poised to significantly strengthen their roster, slowly boosting their Super Bowl aspirations.
According to reporter Ian Rapoport via his X (formerly Twitter) account, the New York franchise is close to adding none other than WR Davante Adams, who has been flirting with several teams in recent weeks.
Rapoport posted on his account @RapSheet: “The #Raiders are completing a trade of star WR Davante Adams to the #Jets, sources say. Back with his good friend, Aaron Rodgers. As Las Vegas moves on.”
In this way, the Jets acquire a key piece for their offense, addressing one of the team’s deficits throughout the season. Rodgers reunites with his former teammate, with whom he had great performances at the Green Bay Packers.
A tough loss against Bills
In a tough divisional matchup, the Jets fell to the Buffalo Bills by a score of 23-20, marking another defeat for Aaron Rodgers and his squad. With a record now sitting at 2-4, the team’s path to the playoffs is becoming increasingly difficult.
Looking ahead, the Jets face a challenging Sunday Night Football matchup against the formidable Pittsburgh Steelers, who are on a strong upswing in the league.
The addition of Davante Adams to the roster represents a significant boost to the Jets’ offense, something Aaron Rodgers’ team desperately needed as they look to secure a much-needed victory.
A game marked by incidents
The loss to the Buffalo Bills created a tense atmosphere within the Jets’ locker room, particularly for quarterback Aaron Rodgers regarding the referees. In fact, it was Rodgers himself who made his feelings clear after the game.
“It seemed a little ridiculous. Yeah, some of them seemed really bad. Including the roughing the passer on me. That’s not roughing the passer. Might as well play Sarcastaball if we’re gonna call those things. And I thought the one on (Javon) Kinlaw was not roughing the passer, either,” strongly declared Rodgers.
