The new update comes amid the dragging negotiations even a month after the QB said that he would like to play for the Jets. And according to other reports, both franchises are digging in their feet to see what happens so the deal has gone totally silent.

The drama around the trade 

Aaron Rodgers hinted towards the end of the 2022 regular season that he wants to move away from Lambeau Field. After the season was over, he even went to a darkness retreat that, according to him, helped in making up his mind. But ever since he has made up his mind, the deal is dragging on.

While some reports suggest that both teams are waiting to see who blinks first, the Jets GM Joe Douglas seemed confident of it going through. The Jets want to build a team to end their playoff drought that has been going on since the 2010 season. And for that, they want Rodgers to lead the team.

Will the deal actually go through this offseason? Or will the Jets fail to land their prime target of the year? The next few days will be interesting to watch as far as this deal is concerned.
