As the world continues to wait on word from Aaron Rodgers, the Jets appear to be close to adding a couple of his friends.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Gang Green is close to adding Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard, who is a free agent. The team is also targeting wide receiver Randall Cobb, who is one of Rodgers’ best friends and has played 10 seasons in Green Bay with the veteran quarterback.
ESPN also reports that the Jets are interested in Packers tight end Marcedes Lewis. The former 2006 first-round pick of the Jaguars has spent the last five seasons in Green Bay. Lewis caught six receptions for 66 yards and two touchdowns last season.
