Aaron Rodgers goes against promise and misses New York Jets trade 'deadline'

Four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers has seemingly gone back on his promise of not holding any teams hostage after he failed to inform the New York Jets of his decision ahead of the start of the NFL’s legal tampering period.

The NFL’s legal tampering period began at 11am CT (4pm GMT) on Monday. Ahead of free agency beginning, the NFL legal tampering period opens to allow teams to get a head start on negotiating with players.

During the NFL legal tampering period, teams have the right to discuss ‘all aspects of an NFL player contract’ without actually signing a deal. Nothing can be made official during the tampering period but both teams and players can agree deals before signing and confirming them once the new league year begins.
