New York Jets' Aaron Rodgers trade came with hidden clause as blockbuster deal done

Four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers has finally sealed a trade to the New York Jets which includes a hidden clause, ending his 18-year stay at the Green Bay Packers, where he won his one and only Super Bowl to date.

The 39-year-old quarterback stated his intention to join the Jets last month on The Pat McAfee Show. However, as Rodgers wasn’t a free agent, terms had to be thrashed out between the two franchises, which proved to be a difficult task until Monday when a deal was finally struck.

Rodgers is heading to the Big Apple to play for the Jets, with the Packers getting a 13th overall pick, a 2023 second-round pick at No43 and a 207th sixth-round pick. But Rodgers’ trade also comes with a hidden clause depending on whether he plays 65% of the plays.
