EternalShinyAndChrome 3,878 Posted March 15, 2023 On Pat MacAfee show he said only thing holding it up now is what the Packers can get for him. Appearing on The Pat McAfee Show Tuesday, Aaron Rodgers said his intention is "to play for the New York Jets." After first explaining where babies come from and then getting into the known history of the early universe, Rodgers finally stated his intentions. He said the holdup is compensation talks between the Jets and Packers, and that it is out of his hands at this point. That part is clearly true. Rodgers also claimed he was "90 percent" leaning toward retirement before his now-infamous darkness retreat, but that he was jolted into wanting to return after emerging and finding the Packers wanted to trade him. Sure, whatever. The takeaway is that Rodgers wants to play in 2023 and the only team that currently wants him is the New York Jets. It is going to happen soon rather than later.

TommyGavin 790 Posted March 15, 2023 He really is following in Brett’s shoes. Does that mean he is going to show his weenie to a female reporter and end up on the Vikings too ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

listen2me 23 1,831 Posted March 15, 2023 What do you guys think thr compensation will be? I know Corey Davis may get released he could be in package. A 1st and 2nd seems reasonable. Probably will have stipulations on if Rodgers plays more than 1 year or not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Engorgeous George 2,163 Posted March 15, 2023 Just saw tape of him saying he is debatably the best player in Packer franchise history. I would note Starr, Hutson, Nitschke, Kramer, Gregg, Adderley, Wood and others should not be dismissed so easily. Hey Rodgers, Starr has five championships. The others have them as well and all were men of great character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
