It seems like there are five different teams that are desperate to make Rodgers the last piece of their puzzle. Teams like Tennessee Titans, Indianapolis Colts, and the New York Jets all ended their season with terrible records. All of these teams could use a strong leader like Rodgers that can lead them to a better season.

Is Raiders Rodgers’ first choice?

It seems like while there are quality teams eyeing Rodgers, the Raiders might be his possible first choice. Rodgers has always preferred playing with good wide receivers who can run routes to perfection and catch his passes. During all his time in Green Bay, only one WR has been a target that Rodgers has relied on. Davante Adams has been an exceptional teammate for Rodgers, both on and off the field. It would make sense for Rodgers to now go to the Raiders and team up with Davante Adams to bring home a ring.
