Aaron Rodgers gesture to Green Bay Packers rookie sums up Jets quarterback

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers gifted Green Bay Packers rookie Sean Clifford a signed jersey as a ‘housewarming present’ despite no longer being with the NFC North franchise.

Clifford received the gift as he moved into Rodgers’ old locker - which the four-time MVP had used for 18 years - after the Packers spent a fifth-round pick on him. The 24-year-old proved his worth at Penn State University by departing as the program’s all-time leader in starting quarterback wins (32), passing yards (10,661) and passing touchdowns (86).

The upcoming 2023 season will be the first time Rodgers - a 10-time Pro Bowler and four-time All-Pro - will be playing in another uniform in the NFL. The Packers are adjusting to life without Rodgers, with Jordan Love taking over as the starting quarterback for the first time since he was selected in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
