Aaron Rodgers recently made his way to the New York Jets. After more than a decade’s worth of time with the Packers, he has finally moved on to the next chapter of his life. However, the trade wasn’t as amicable as everyone would’ve hoped it to be. Packers Nation was obviously very saddened to see their veteran QB leave. Furthermore, there were a lot of naysayers who believed that Rodgers would not be the best choice for the Jets. Interestingly, the Jets have an interestingly savage response to any naysayers.

The Jets took to Instagram to celebrate the birthday of one of their outstanding rookies. However, in the process of wishing him a Happy Birthday, the Jets also fired off some shots at the Packers.

The rookie in question was Breece Hall. The Jets’ official account took to Instagram to wish Hall in a very unique manner. They posted a supposed AI-generated picture that shows the rookie running back beating a defense as he runs the ball. Interestingly, all the defensive players chasing the running back were donned in Packers colors.

The defensive players in the picture were all dressed in the classic green and yellow of the Packers and they very clearly seemed to be losing against the running back. Admittedly, the running back has performed quite well in his first year. Before he suffered a season-ending ACL tear, he was able to rake up 5 touchdowns in 7 games, running for a total of 681 yards, putting his yards per game average to 66.1 yards.
