The Aaron Rodgers era in New York began with an act of goodwill Wednesday when the four-team league MVP took a pay cut, giving the New York Jets some much-needed financial flexibility.
The Jets now may be looking to reward Rodgers with a new weapon in four-time Pro Bowl running back Dalvin Cook, who is set to take a visit with the organization this weekend.
Head coach Robert Saleh praised Rodgers' financial sacrifice for the betterment of the team.
"I think it says a lot when the best player on your football team—a Hall of Famer—is willing to sacrifice something because he wants to win, which is ultimately what we're all here to do," Saleh said Thursday.
