Broncos hiring Nathaniel Hackett puts them in the mix for Aaron Rodgers

Perhaps the most important task for new Denver Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett is finding a quarterback for a team that’s struggled at the position since Peyton Manning retired after the 2015 Super Bowl.

Does Hackett know any good ones? Like maybe a veteran coming off a likely MVP season who has left open the possibility of starting anew and avoiding a potential rebuild with his salary cap-addled current team?

Hackett, of course, is coming from the Green Bay Packers, where he was the offensive coordinator the last three seasons.
