Aaron Rodgers is once againmaking headlinesin the offseason. Just like it happened in the last two years, his future with thePackers looks up in the air, and this time, a move to the Jets looks like a strong possibility.

It’s still too soon to tell, since not even Rodgers knowswhatto do next season. The veteran quarterback, who willgo through a darkness retreat to contemplate his decision, can either stay in Green Bay, request a trade or even call it a career. All options seem to be on the table.

In the event he just wants out of the Packers, New York could be next for him. However, the Jetsare not reducing their options to Rodgers. According to a report, they believe there’s another signal-caller out there who can take them to a championship.
