The Pat McAfee Show
Aaron Rodgers simply admitted he needs to be a New York Jet in 2023 … saying it is clear to him the Green Bay Packers not need him.
The star quarterback broke every little thing down about his present scenario on The Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday afternoon — saying as of final Friday, he had determined to not retire … and his intention is to now “play for the New York Jets.”
He added that following conversations with Green Bay execs, he believed the Packers “would like to move on” as nicely.
Rodgers stated he is not the one holding up an official Green Bay to NY commerce from going by way of — saying it is the Packers who’re those stopping a deal. He defined … his former staff remains to be making an attempt to work out compensation for the QB.
The 39-year-old stated he harbors no in poor health will towards his former staff for the best way it is all taking place now … however he did say he wished the Packers had been extra sincere with him following the season.
He instructed McAfee that, initially, Green Bay brass had stated “take as long as you want” … and “if you want to come back and play, the door is wide open.”

But, Rodgers — who admitted he had severely thought of retiring (“90 percent,” he known as it) previous to his darkness retreat in late February — stated issues modified when he returned from isolation.
“Multiple people that I trust around the league said that there was some shopping going on,” Rodgers stated. “[The Packers] were interested in moving me.”
He added, “They’re ready to move on with Jordan [Love]. That’s awesome. Jordan is going to be a great player, he’s a great kid.”
No phrase but on when a commerce will occur — however one factor is obvious, it seems to be actually a matter of “when” now … not “if.”
Rejoice, NY. Rejoice.
