The New York Jets finally closed Aaron Rodgers’ trade for the 2023 NFL season. They will have an elite quarterback calling the plays, awakening their AFC East rivals, who have warned the Super Bowl XLV champion ahead of their matchups.

It was not easy for the Jets to get the veteran quarterback they wanted. New York convinced the Green Bay Packers to reconsider their trade demands for Aaron Rodgers, sealing the deal this week.

Rodgers will leave the NFC after 18 seasons with the Packers. His arrival has boosted the Jets’ odds of winning the Super Bowl 2024, but first they must go through a really tough AFC East.
