The Jets' decision to hire Nathaniel Hackett as their new offensive coordinator has ignited the discussion that the Jets are interested in trading for Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The quarterback’s connection to Hackett is well-documented, and his future in Green Bay is in doubt heading into the offseason.
On Thursday, a Jets player spoke for the first time publicly about the rumors. After New York announced the Hackett hire, Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner appeared on ESPN Radio, and Harry Douglas asked him for his thoughts on a potential Rodgers trade.
“I wouldn’t mind that,” Gardner said. “I want what’s best for the offense.”
