<p>Things are changing for the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a></strong> ahead of the 2023 <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl">NFL</a></strong> season. Not only because <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aaron-rodgers">Aaron Rodgers</a></strong> is gone, but also because they’ll see one of their former players helping <strong>Justin Fields</strong> at division rivals <strong>Chicago Bears</strong>.</p>



<p>The Packers used to be in control of the NFC North for many years, but they lost that dominance last year. With the veteran quarterback no longer at Lambeau Field, it <strong>could be even harder </strong>for them to get back to the top.</p>



<p>On the other hand, the Bears are hoping to leave behind countless disappointing seasons. The team has been making moves to build around its young quarterback, recently landing a former Packer.</p>



<h2>Bears reportedly sign TE Marcedes Lewis</h2>



<p>According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, the Chicago Bears are finalizing a deal with tight end <strong>Marcedes Lewis</strong>. The 39-year-old is entering his 18th NFL season, a record for a player in his position.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230803#BUS#40209"></div>


<p>Lewis hit the open market after running out of contract in Green Bay, where he <strong>spent the last five seasons.</strong> “When guys need to play and need the snaps, when (veterans) are out there, other guys aren’t,” Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said when asked why it was best not to bring him back, via Ryan Wood.</p>

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Top-50-greatest-quarterbacks-in-NFL-history-20200522-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Aaron Rodgers</strong></a> has taken longer than expected, but now it finally looks like a matter of time before he confirms his departure from <strong>Green Bay</strong>. Of course, we still have to wait, but all signs are pointing towards him leaving the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Top-25-NFL-teams-with-most-fans-20200501-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Packers</strong></a> for the <strong>Jets</strong>.</p>
<p>The veteran quarterback will reveal <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Insider-reveals-why-Aaron-Rodgers-hasnt-been-traded-yet-20230314-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">his final decision</a> on Wednesday at 1 PM (ET) in an appearance on the <em>Pat McAfee Show</em>. <strong>All options remain on the table, though his future appears to be inNew York.</strong></p>
<p>Rodgers reportedly <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Aaron-Rodgers-may-be-planning-his-departure-from-the-Packers-20230307-0038.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">held a meeting</a> with Jets owner <strong>Woody Johnson</strong> and head coach <strong>Robert Saleh</strong> not long ago, while <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Packers-hint-Aaron-Rodgers-is-out-of-Green-Bay-20230311-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Packers executives suggested</a> the divorce is imminent. In the event he ultimately joins the Jets, Rodgers could be taking players he appreciates with him.</p>
<h2>Free agents Aaron Rodgers could recruit to join him at Jets</h2>
<p>Rodgers reportedly has a wish list of players he wants to have as teammates in New York, and the Jets have already started to bring familiar faces for the 4x MVP. Apart from hiring <strong>Nathaniel Hackett</strong> as offensive coordinator, the Jets signed free agent wide receiver <strong>Allen Lazard</strong>, who spent the last five seasons with Rodgers in Green Bay. But there could be more players following Rodgers to New York.</p>
<h3>Randall Cobb</h3>

<p></p></div>
<p><em>ESPN</em> insider Adam Schefter reported the Jets’ next target after Lazard would be veteran wideout <strong>Randall Cobb</strong>, who also hit the free agency after playing with Rodgers at the Packersfor many years.</p>
<h3>Marcedes Lewis</h3>

<p></p></div>
<p>Schefter added veteran tight end <strong>Marcedes Lewis</strong>, who also became a free agent after five seasons with the Packers, to the Jets’ shortlist. Dianna Russini of <em>ESPN</em> reports Lewis is part of the wish-list of free agents Rodgers wants the Jets to sign, though the <strong>Raiders</strong> wouldalso be interested in him.</p>
<h3>Odell Beckham Jr.</h3>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Odell Beckham Jr.</strong> hasbeen heavily linked with the Packers last year while he still recovered from an ACL injury sustained during the 2022 <strong>Super Bowl</strong>. Beckham eventually missed the entire season, but as he nears his return to the gridiron, Rodgers apparently wants him on board in his new chapter in New York. It makes sense, since Rodgers would have in him a reliable partner to challenge for big things.</p>
