The drama is now behind in the main storyline of the offseason. In the end, Aaron Rodgers was granted his wish of playing for the New York Jets. However, he will always be remembered as one of the greatest players in the history of the Green Bay Packers.
It was a move that took a long time to materialize. The first step was Rodgersâ darkness retreat that ended up in his decision of playing for the Jets. After he announced that on âThe Pat McAfee Showâ, there was silence for over a month.
But on Monday the two sides agree on a deal that sent the four-time NFL MVP to New York. It was very unexpected a while ago, although his relationship with the current front office hasnât been good lately. With this move the AFC adds yet another top QB to the list headlined by Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, and Josh Allen.
