Jets owner Woody Johnson ‘optimistic’ about finalizing Aaron Rodgers trade

PHOENIX — As the annual NFL owner’s meetings come to a close, Aaron Rodgers remains a Packer as Gang Green has yet to finalize a trade to bring him to New York.

The Jets and Packers have hit an impasse as they have yet to agree on compensation for the four-time MVP.

In his first comments since meeting with Rodgers, Jets owner Woody Johnson spoke highly of the veteran when he talked to reporters on Tuesday.

“He’s very impressive, extremely smart, authentic,” Johnson said on Tuesday.
