The idea of Aaron Rodgers being traded is something we’d never imagine. With all the issues in Green Bay this season, we seem to forget that Rodgers is the reigning back-to-back NFL MVP. However, with Rodgers taking a step back in production compared to his previous seasons, some fans and analysts think the Packers should trade Rodgers.
Trade rumors began to swirl during Green Bay’s five game losing streak. Although, after the Packers beat the Dallas Cowboys to end their losing streak, trade rumors started to quiet down. Now that the Packers are struggling once again, rumors are ramping back up.
In addition, Jordan Love had to fill in for Rodgers during their last game against the Eagles. Some fans were pleased with what they saw. Love completed six of his nine passes for 113 yards and one touchdown after only playing in the fourth quarter.
Possibility Of Jets Trading For Aaron Rodgers In 2023
Aaron Rodgers signed a lucrative contract extension that ensured he would remain with the Packers through the 2022 season, but after that, there is no guarantee of what will happen.
Rodgers’ contract would be a giant hurdle for teams to work around. If the Packers are willing to make Rodgers available, teams are going to have to decide if he’s worth the risk.

With the Jets defense, Robert Salah at the helm, Breece Hall running healthy next year, Garret Wilson & Elijah Moore at wide out… Jets need to do one thing and one thing only next year… trade for Aaron Rodgers

When the Packers trade Aaron Rodgers to the Jets, they gotta include Mike White in the deal.

The New York Jets have a solid roster this year and currently sit at 7-4. They would make the playoffs if the season ended today. Some would consider the Jets to be a quarterback away from being a legitimate contender.
The Jets quarterback situation is a bit of a mess right now. Before their last game against the Bears, New York benched their former No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson in favor of Mike White.
It’s worth noting that back in 2008, the Jets made a trade with the Packers to acquire Brett Favre. Could we see Rodgers follow a similar path?
