The New York Jets still have a problem to sort out in regards to Aaron Rodgers ’ contract.
After a trade with the Green Bay Packers, the Jets have Rodgers as their new star quarterback for the coming season. The Jets gave up several draft picks, including a conditional second round pick that will turn into a first round pick if Rodgers takes part in 65 percent of offensive snaps in the 2023 season.
The trade was agreed just days before April’s NFL draft, with it being reported at the time that the Jets will be picking up Rodgers’ guaranteed option bonus of $58.3 million. This was due to Rodgers, before being traded to the Jets, pushing the option ahead a year to 2024.
