The NFL offers massive monetary gains for the players. For established players, their legacy is defined by how they lead their teams to the championship. However, there’s another interesting factor that has opened the conversation about a former GOAT and the current GOAT in the NFL. A leading sports commentator highlighted how a pay cut from one of the game’s legends Aaron Rodgers will aid the Jets’ side big time this season.

There’s no denying that A-Rod took a massive pay cut when signing with the New York Jets. Giving an emotional goodbye to the Green Bay Packers after 17 seasons, Rodgers moved to the Jets this year. Now, Rich Eisen has stressed how the lumpsum money saved would assist the team, with examples of further recruits that are joining the Green Gang. This is all done in an attempt to make the side win the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

Rich Eisen points out a praise-worthy Aaron Rodgers gesture

As a loyal New York Jets fan, speaking on his YouTube “The Rich Eisen Show”, the commentator explicitly mentioned the legendary QB for his generous act. Eisen said “And the money that Rodgers cough back up, the Jets are using and putting every egg in the 2023 basket.”, while speaking highly of Rodgers. The celebrated commentator valued how the decision to go for a 30% pay cut has worked wonders for the Jets side.

The mega savings have led the team to make wiser decisions. The Green Gang has now roped in running back Dalvin Cook for $8.6 million in the upcoming season. Speaking about the same, Eisen shared his views “There’s some chatter for running backs in this day and age. Sitting at ATC, learning the offense…getting ready to play each other.” Eisen noticed how their side now looked more formidable than ever, having gone “all-in” and ticking the checkboxes. However, there was another legend that took a pay cut and guided his side to a Superbowl win.
