There were a multiplicity of factors that led to the Green Bay Packers agreeing to trade quarterback Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets.
Who had the San Francisco 49ers as being a reason?
Rodgers referenced coach Robert Saleh and his work as defensive coordinator with the 49ers from 2017-20 as being one of the factors that attracted him to New York.
“We got to practice against them a couple years ago and I got to know Robert a little bit more and I’ve always loved what he’s all about,” Rodgers told reporters at his introductory presser Wednesday.
