Aaron Rodgers and Randall Cobb are the thickest of mates. Both played for the Jets for close to a decade. Therefore, it’s only natural that both would know each other’s game inside out. During Tuesday’s episode of “Hard Knocks”, Cobb had a few things to share about his former team-mate. In a tweet shared by Conor Hughes,  he provides a clear perspective on the comments. Cobb highlighted MVP’s patience for snapping out in throwing out interceptions. The senior player was well aware of these comments and gave a fitting reply during the news conference yesterday.

Rodgers who walked away from a $131 billion deal said “Cobby said some things about how you got to watch out because you know eight’s going to snap at some point. I don’t feel like I’m the snapping type anymore….mean, I’m going to raise my level of intensity, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to embarrass anybody. I don’t want to do that. I want to make guys feel like they’re a part of this and they’re going to get that respect and that kindness.” Rodgers stressed taking accountability for the actions and avoiding making repetitive mistakes. Along with the Cobb-Rodgers saga, there were certain other Jets players that were part of the “Hard Knocks”.

There was, however, not much spotlight on Dalvin Cook’s signing. The running back was part of recent recruitments made by the Jets. The lack of exposure to his joining and not much focus on his practice sessions, makes the fans wonder whether he would be starting or not.
