Aaron Rodgers has made his decision.
He wants play for the new york jets in 2023.
“From Friday I made it clear that my intention was to play and my intention was to play for the New York Jets,” said the veteran Green Bay Packers quarterback. he said Wednesday on “The Pat McAfee Show.”
Rodgers said the deal isn’t done yet because the teams are still working out the details of the trade.
“I haven’t been holding anything back right now, it’s been compensation that the Packers are trying to get for me and they’re kind of digging their heels in,” he said.
Shortly after the interview, the verified Jets Twitter account tweeted several eyeball emojis and tagged the McAfee program.
Rodgers won four NFL MVP awards and one Super Bowl during his 18 seasons in Green Bay. His immediate future in the league has been unclear this offseason, with retirement, a return to the Packers and a trade to another team all seemingly on the table.
The future Hall of Famer reflected on that future during a four-day darkness retreat. He confirmed that he met with members of the Jets organization last week.
“I think right now it’s interesting to step back and look at the big picture, my side: love and appreciation, gratitude for all that Green Bay has done for me. So much love and gratitude and an open heart to the fans of the Packers and what it meant to be their quarterback. And also the reality of the situation. It is what it is: the Packers would like to move on.”
