Aaron Rodgers agreed to restructure his contract with the Jets ahead of his first season with the team. The new deal will see Rodgers take a gargantuan $33.7 million pay cut, something the 39-year-old said was a show of his commitment to the franchise.
Speaking with NBC Sports’s Peter King, Rodgers opened up on his decision to forgo such a significant chunk of salary for his new team.
“I thought it was important they knew how committed I was. And in my conversations with Joe [Douglas], he has made it very clear the vision for the football team,” said Rodgers.
