Aaron Rodgers has confirmed he is ready to leave the Green Bay Packers for the New York Jets.
The quarterback made the announcement during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday. He said he had been considering whether to retire or return to the NFL before but that “since Friday I made it clear that my intention was to play [in the NFL] and play for the Jets, and I haven’t been holding anything up. It’s the compensation that the Packers are trying to get ... The Packers want to move on and have let me know that in so many words.
