During his interaction with Pat McAfee, Rodgers eluded to the signals he received from the Green Bay front office, “There were some conversations around what you gonna do in the offseason, that honestly didn’t have a big barrier on it. Felt it was my last time in Green Bay as a starting quarterback“.

Rodgers even went on to share his take on Jordan Love filling his shoes, “I was open to that change based on how people responded, It was more just a sense, you drafted Jordan if I hadn’t won MVP twice in a row, this would have been a conversation two years ago, which is totally fine, I get it”

Rodgers recalled the guys he came in with, and felt that this current Green Bay roster needed a different set of individuals. He said, “It’s just a different regime and every regime wants to have their guys”.

Reports of Aaron Rodgers handing New York Jets his own customized wishlist of players have been circulating for a while now. While many around the league want to wholeheartedly believe this narrative, Rodgers denied making any such demands. “That’s not the reality, that’s just ridiculous. It’s so stupid. Now did they ask me about certain guys that I played with, of course, did I talk glowingly about teammates that I love, yeah? Why wouldn’t you? Do I make demands about certain people? I mean, it’s just. And people want these things to be true”.

With the Jets already eyeing up some of Rodgers’s current teammates, the 4x NFL MVP might find his next destination to be a pleasant one. In addition to Nathaniel Hackett, the Jets intend to acclimatize Rodgers with a couple of familiar faces around him, and that could potentially be the final cog in the wheel.

NFL fans are excited

Amidst all these revelations, NFL fans found themselves in a frenzy. Many of these fans took to Twitter immediately. One fan even somehow found a full-circle moment with these revelations.

While another user felt that Rodgers had a lot to prove.

The city of New York was certainly joyous.

NFL Insider Conner Hughes even called the recent developments ‘crazy’.

One particular user felt that this deal might not work out for the Jets.

The most hilarious out of these interactions was definitely ESPN’s Senior NFL Insider, Adam Schefter.

Aaron Rodgers himself narrated his conversation with Schefter on the Pat McAfee podcast and choose the words, “Lose my number. Nice try.”
