The Aaron Rodgers-Jets rumors are swirling.
The Jets need an upgrade at quarterback amid Zach Wilson’s drastic development, and the team also hired Nathaniel Hackett as offensive coordinator on Thursday. Hackett was Rodgers’ offensive coordinator in Green Bay from 2019-21 before lasting 15 games as Broncos head coach this past season.
The future Hall of Famer and the quarterback-needy franchise could be a great match. And one of the Jets’ top players is giving Rodgers his shine.
“He’s definitely great. He’s definitely elite,” star cornerback Sauce Gardner said Thursday on ESPN Radio’s “Fitz & Harry” program.
