Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers Tells Fans to Stay Tuned

It’s officially on – fans have to wait and see where Aaron Rodgers will play next. Rumour has it that the Jets have set their eyes on the quarterback, with executives traveling all the way to California to speak with Rodgers. In a recent interview, the Packers’ star tells fans and interviewer Brandon Marshall to ‘stay tuned’ if they want to find out what’s coming up in his career.

A Look Into Aaron Rodgers’ Career

Aaron Rodgers has mulled retirement, indicating he was thinking about his future in the NFL. As fans probably know, the player has spent his whole 18th season of the NFL with the Packers. But now, a change appears on the horizon for Rodgers. In case you missed it, the star spent the end of February in a “retreat,” where he contemplated where to continue with his career. There are but three options ahead of Rodgers – either continue with the Packers, retire, or play somewhere else.

What about his contract? He signed an extension of his contract with the Packers in March of last year. So, if a transfer is due, the Jets will have to work out some terms of the trade.

Comments on the Jets Executive Meeting

Aaron Rodgers met with Jets owner Woody Johnson to discuss a possible transfer. However, there weren’t many official statements at the meeting. So far, Rodgers has simply said he always feels honored to meet prominent names in sports. Taking a look at the Jets camp, ESPN statistics show that the team has freed some $15.2 million in salary cap by amending three players’ contracts.

In addition, ESPN has also reported that the Jets reworked other deals on Thursday with the release of their former receiver, Braxton Berrios. Thus, the total cap savings of New York accumulate to $23+ million.

Sooner or later, it’ll become clear what’ll be Aaron Rodgers’ final decision. The 39-year-old is among the top-paid NFL players, alongside Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford.
